Hairdressers: this is how often you should get a haircut

It is always tricky to determine when you actually need a haircut. Especially if you’re trying to grow out your hair. So, how often should you get a haircut? According to hairdressers, there is a right amount of time between trims that you should stick to if you can. 

Philip B. advices to not wait longer than six months to get your hair cut. He told Good Housekeeping: “After a certain amount of time, no matter how well you treat your hair, your very tips tend to get [frayed].” If you’re trying to grow out your hair, you still have to cut it regularly. Even if that feels counterintuitive. Meri Kate O’Conner, senior colorist and educator at Eva Scrivo Salon in New York City, explains to Good Housekeeping: “When the split goes up the hair shaft, it becomes so thin that it breaks … Once you split your hair there’s no way to repair it.” And that means that your hairdresser has to cut off more hair if you wait too long.
