Deciding it’s time for a trim is sometimes a spur-of-the-moment decision but many of us stick to a schedule and book in for our next appointment before we’ve even had a chance to fully enjoy our latest cut. There is no exact science behind how often you should get your haircut and many different factors come into play but our recommendations are discussed below.
How fast does your hair grow anyway?
Human hair grows approximately 0.5mm every single day. This does vary from person to person and will be influenced by everything from your use of products to genetics and your lifestyle choices. Genetics are the strongest player in your hair growth speed.
You’ll already know how long it takes for your trim to feel less than perfect and this could be the perfect time to step into your barber’s, but if you sometimes miss the moment and end up feeling uncomfortable and unkempt, keep our recommendations in mind.
Super Short and Sharp
If you like to keep your short back and sides truly short and tight, then you’ll need to book in for a trim every 2-3 weeks. Waiting long means your hair may grow out and you’ll look the style completely and your barbet will have to start again. Skin fades won’t be visible beyond the 2-week mark usually, so that’s the time to book in and maintain your look.
Shaping your Style
If you maintain a medium-length look then visiting your barber every 4-6 weeks will help, ensure you keep the shape of your style, and it doesn’t start looking scruffy. Even when you have longer hair then you need to keep it cut so you don’t lose the shape you’ve opted for and your professional barber will be sure to keep on top of the edges, tidying up scruffy neck hair and blending the sides into your beard, if appropriate.
Growing your hair long?
If you’ve decided it’s time to champion the Viking look and want those locks long and flowing, you still need to stop by your barbershop every now and then. Opting to grow your hair naturally may mean you want to avoid trims or losing any length, but this can be to the detriment of your hair growth. It’s especially worthwhile visiting your barber at least the beginning of growing your hair so they can help to shape and create the style you’re looking for as your hair grows.
