πŸŒ‘Now: New Moon

Guide by Lunar Phase

New Moon - Reset & Minimalist Cuts

Now
Neutral

The new moon is a time of new beginnings. Hair cut now tends to grow back slowly, making it ideal if you want to maintain a short style longer. Good for big changes and fresh starts.

Waxing Crescent - Stimulate Growth

Good

As the moon waxes, hair energy increases. Cutting during the waxing crescent stimulates vigorous growth. Ideal if you want your hair to grow back thicker and faster.

First Quarter - Strength & Vitality

Excellent

The first quarter is one of the best times for a haircut. The growing lunar energy promotes strong, healthy hair growth and enhances shine. Perfect for treatments and highlights.

Waxing Gibbous - Maximum Absorption

Excellent

Hair is most receptive to nutrients and treatments during the waxing gibbous. An excellent time for color treatments, nourishing masks, and a trim to boost thickness. Growth will be generous.

Full Moon - Peak Energy, Caution

Caution

The full moon amplifies all energies - including hair sensitivity. Cuts made now can lead to very fast but sometimes uneven growth. Best avoided for precision cuts; good for bold color changes.

Waning Gibbous - Slow Growth, Shape Retention

Good

The waning moon slows regrowth, making this ideal for maintaining your current style longer. Cuts now keep their shape well. Good for trims and styling adjustments.

Last Quarter - Purification & Endings

Neutral

The last quarter supports releasing what no longer serves you - including unhealthy hair. An excellent time for deep conditioning treatments and trimming split ends. Growth will be moderate.

Waning Crescent - Rest & Restore

Avoid

The waning crescent is a time of rest and restoration. Hair cut now may grow back slowly and feel lifeless. Best to skip haircuts and focus on nourishing scalp treatments instead.

Additional Tips

✦ Growth-Boosting Cut

Cut during the Waxing Crescent or First Quarter for the fastest regrowth with added thickness and vitality.

✦ Style Retention Cut

Cut during the Waning Gibbous or Last Quarter to maintain your style shape longer before needing another trim.

✦ Color & Treatment Days

The Waxing Gibbous is the peak time for hair coloring and nourishing treatments - absorption and intensity are maximized.
