There is only one down side to sporting an edgy short-do and that's growing it out when you decide to revert back to long luscious locks instead. There are a few ways to ensure you keep your hair in top condition and looking flattering while it is at that often difficult in-between length.
Regular trims: so you want your length back? This doesn't mean you should forgo a regular trim. By maintaining a regular hair appointment you will be ensuring your hair is rid of any split-ends that can cause frizz and damage your hair. A regular trim will keep your hair in top condition, meaning you won't lose unnecessary length when you do go for your hair cuts.
Condition & Treat: keep your hair looking its best by using a hot oil treatment from time to time and more regularly using a salon quality leave-in conditioner; this can lessen frizz and fly-aways for a smoother look and increase shine for healthy looking hair.
Style it up: consider a fringe, try a new colour, use a hot iron to straighten your locks, create bouncy curls by using hot rollers, use a dab of product to create a tousled look; try everything and anything to discover how to get your hair looking its best at each different length. While 'in-between' may not be your ideal length, there will be a way to get your hair looking fabulous no matter what its length. It may be that when your hair is short it looks best flat ironed and with a heavy fringe, but when it's a little longer a more natural lose curl, middle parted and held in place with a simple headband could work better.
