What is the best day to cut your hair by the moon?

For faster regrowth and thicker hair, favour the waxing (ascending) Moon in an earth sign. For a cut that holds longer and more spaced-out appointments, prefer the waning Moon. The calendar shows the most suitable cut for each day.

Should I cut my hair on a waxing or waning moon?

A waxing Moon encourages growth: cutting is advised if you want length and volume. A waning Moon slows regrowth: ideal to keep a neat cut longer and to strengthen the hair fibre.

Why are some days marked as rest days?

Rest days are when the Moon is in a water sign (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces), at the new moon, or during a special astronomical event (eclipse, lunar node, perigee, apogee). Avoid cutting and colouring then, and favour gentle care.

Which day should I choose to colour my hair?

Air-sign days are the most favourable for colouring. A waning Moon also helps set the colour for longer. The calendar flags these "colour" days.

Is cutting hair by the moon scientifically proven?

No. The Moon's influence on hair growth has not been scientifically demonstrated. This calendar is offered as a guide drawn from folk traditions, not as a guarantee.
