They never need to be pruned. Now if you wish to remove the dead blooms that is fine. You do this with small shears or garden sissors just below the bloom. Now if you feel that the bush is just to big for you, you will need to wait until after the spring. They produce their blooms for the next year in the fall so if you trim them then, you will loose your next years flower. So wait until after the spring bloom and before Aug. to do this.

How much do you trim back a hydrangea and still get flowers in summer?

How much to cut back your hydrangea depends on the variety of hydrangea you have, and where you live. In northern climates "Annabelle" and "pee gee" hydrangeas can be cut back to eight inches, and still produce a three foot-high shrub with flowers during the summer. "Mophead", "Lacecap" and "oakleaf" hydrangeas set their blooms in late August, September or October, so you have to prune them in early August to be sure you aren't cutting off next year's blooms. Prune out up to a third of the stems of an older plant to encourage new growth. Prune those stems to the ground. Otherwise it usually isn't necessary to prune them at all. Just cut off the spent flowers (deadhead) down to the next stem or mature leaf.
