Trim over the floor. Buy a cheap dust pan with a small broom or brush.

Problem with lining your sink is stray hairs go everywhere. Becomes a pain to dust them out of or around every surface. Hairs fall to the floor and you have to sweep that anyway. Now you have a liner to clean or discard. Simpler to go with the same option your hair cut stylist uses, let it go to the floor. Sweep it up. One and done.

Side mention to recommend discard in a waste bin. Hair can contribute to fatbergs in city sewers or clog up your home septic.

Yeah this is my mom. People who so firmly believe that their opinions and beliefs are the only right answers are impossible to talk and reason with. Even if you bring up an undisputable fact, they'll just ignore you the moment they think they've lost and pretend you and everything you've said never existed in order to preserve their pride. Speaking from experience, you're better off walking away from them and spending your time and energy on something that will actually have a positive influence on your life.

I trim over the paper towel, and then I throw the towel away, then I remove the sink from the wall and put it in the bin. Then I take the bin outside and put it in a bigger bin.

No but seriously, this is good advice OP. When you own your own home and you have to deal with a plumbing yourself, you start to think about things like this.
