Astrology has long influenced the way people live their lives, whether it’s determining compatibility with a partner or shaping their fashion sense. But what if your astrological sign could also affect the length and health of your hair? The moon has long been said to have power over all living things, and now astrology enthusiasts are saying that the phases of the moon also affect a person’s hair, leading to a new method of cutting hair based on the moon’s cycles.
Moon Calendar for Cutting Your Hair in 2023: Guide to the Best Days
Due to the ambiguous nature of astrology itself, this haircut method is not fully supported by science. It is believed that the moon regulates growth because it has a direct pull on all living things. The idea is that when the full moon arrives, the universal forces of expansion are at their strongest, which is thought to stimulate hair growth once it is cut. We all know that regular haircuts keep your hair healthy and speed up the growth process. By removing the dead ends from your hair, your locks grow thicker and faster, so using a lunar haircut calendar (when the moon’s pull is at its strongest) gives you a better chance of channeling the natural elements to stimulate root growth.

You can also use the seasons of the zodiac signs as a handy haircutting guide. The sun and moon take a full year to move through each of the zodiac signs – that’s how our birthday signs come about – and as they move through each sign, the moon completes one monthly lunar cycle. The optimal times for hair growth can be determined by the zodiac signs of water and fire.
When the moon is moving through these water sign seasons, energies are said to be at their most fertile. This means that during these times, restoration, recovery, and growth are encouraged. So if you’re hoping for a haircut that will result in long, healthy locks, you’ll want to book your hairdresser during a water sign season. To keep track of when these times fall, keep in mind that Cancer season runs from June 21st to July 22nd, Scorpio season runs from October 23rd to November 21st, and finally, Pisces season runs from February 19th to March 20th.
