    How Often Should I Get a Trim?

    April 2026

    We usually recommend getting a trim every 6 to 8 weeks. However, the right timing can vary depending on your hair type, length, and lifestyle.

    Why Regular Trims Matter — Even When Growing Your Hair

    Even if you're trying to grow your hair longer, regular trims are still important. Small, consistent cuts help prevent split ends from traveling further up the hair, which can lead to more noticeable damage over time. By keeping the ends clean, your hair can actually grow in a healthier and more beautiful way.

    For example, if your hair feels dry, tangles easily, or looks uneven at the ends, it may be a sign that it's time for a trim. Paying attention to these small changes can help you find the right timing for your hair.

    Finding the Right Timing for Your Hair

    If your hair is shorter or has a defined style, you may want to trim it a little more often to maintain its shape. On the other hand, if your hair is long and less structured, you might be able to wait a bit longer between trims.
