How to make it look good

Ive been growing my hair long for 8 months now. My bangs stretch down to my mouth, and it is starting to look like I have a mullet. I have some pretty nasty split ends. I play guitar in a big band so looks are important. I want to grow my hair down past my chest. Should I get it trimmed. How do I make my hair look really healthy. Like Axl Rose?
Thank you very much.

Getting SOMEONE YOU TRUST to snip off the split ends is a good idea as they won't get any better if you leave 'em. I'd suggest that you ask a trusted friend or partner is she/he would do this for you as some professionals just can't resist hacking it all off.

Over the past 12 months, the stuff I've learned from this site boils down to this -
If you want good hair, eat well, exercise a bit, take vitamins in moderation, don't shampoo it to death, brush it with care and don't let anyone cut it (unless you've got some damaged bits.) Washing it in cool water helps, too.
The jury seems to be out on conditioners (some love them, others don't) Some folks will say take Biotin, many (including me) find that it makes no difference.
Just treat your mane with respect.
