SoRHOr,
I believe that if it is damaged, it's gotta go! i was in the same boat about a year ago-- my hair was RAVAGED by overprocessing, permanent hair color and lack of periodic trimming... I was able to hide it better than most(INFUSIUM really is a MIRACLE!),but at the end of the day, it was still shedding and breaking and it just had to go. it was hard parting with it, but i committed myself to cutting it off in large amounts at a time( i had pretty long hair!) until i had a completely healthy head of hair again. well, a year later here i am and i can tell you this: BEAUTY doesn't lie in just ONE factor-- your hair is only a part of the big picture! and if your hair is all broke off and visually unappealing, it isn't helping advertise your other good points! don't be afraid. i promise you will feel better about your hair and yourself after you give your follicles a fresh start. DO THE DARN THANG, soRHOr!
