Cutting your hair according to the phases of the moon

[santia]

Sounds interesting. Has anyone or know of anyone who's done this?

Anthony Morrocco's Lunar Haircutting Charts
The Lunar Chart displays the 5 optimal dates each month for cutting and beautifying hair. Certain days are especially beneficial for a certain task and are noted on the calendar in red. In addition, there are dates each season of particular importance.

We also include a chart of days for retarding hair growth as with shaving, plucking or waxing.

Thanks for posting the new chart!

There was a challenge started for this:

I don't think I'll be able to update for a while, to compare my overall growth in 2006 and 2007.

I'm doing this - started with my last trim in Dec.

I look at it this way - I NEED to trim my hair occasionally anyhow, so why not try to trim it on a day/phase of the moon that MIGHT help? It's a win-win situation....

 

[jenteel]

i have done this 4 years
don't know if it works but i am into stuff like this
and figure it doesn't hurt...

I've been doing this for a while now and I beleive it's working for me. I just check the moon phase on the lunar charts there's a link in my regime, and decide which day to dust/trimm.

 

[santia]

I think I'm going to try this. I was concerned about they type of cut I would have to do on these day's.

When I get to my goal length then I'll just trimm for thickness.

My family is from Honduras and my grandmother always told me about this. She said when trimming, its safer and more beneficial for growth if you read the cycles of the moon.

I tried it once, it did help! But I forgot about it to tell you the truth...I think I am going to do this consistantly.
