Answer 2

I don't advise cutting these back completely. It is only recommended to cut off dead, or damaged leaves. There is a chance that it will grow back, but this can be hard to predict when that will be. It may take a month, or more. If they were damaged, then we will need to narrow down the possibilities of why this could be happening.
