When to cut your hair according to the moon calendar?

Traditionally, hair is cut on the waxing moon for growth and thickness, and on the waning moon to slow growth; specific days are listed in the calendar.

According to the moon calendar, the timing of a haircut is traditionally chosen depending on the goal. The waxing moon is considered favorable for cutting if you want your hair to grow faster, thicker, and stronger—"as the moon grows, so does the hair." The waning moon is the opposite—if you want your hair to hold its shape longer and grow back more slowly (convenient after a short cut).

Lunar days are also taken into account: some are considered good for cutting hair, while others (for example, certain "satanic" days in folk calendars) are not. The full moon and new moon are often advised to be skipped.

Honest framing: there is no scientific proof of the moon's influence on hair growth—this is a folk tradition. Many people enjoy planning this way, and there is no harm in it. Look for favorable days for haircuts in the moon calendar.
