How Often Should You Really Get a Haircut?

Let’s be real. Too many people wait until their fade fades away before they book their next appointment. The truth is, your hair deserves consistency. The right schedule keeps your look sharp, your confidence high, and your style effortless.

Fades and Tapers

If you’re rocking a low fade, drop fade, or bald fade, aim for every 1–2 weeks. These cuts lose definition fast, especially around the neckline and temples. Regular upkeep keeps your look fresh and your lines crisp.

Waves or Short Curls

For wave patterns or short curls, a 2–3 week schedule is the sweet spot. This gives your hair time to grow and maintain its pattern without losing shape. Brush or sponge daily to stretch your look between visits.

Beards and Lineups

Your beard tells its own story. Don’t let it go off script. Hit the chair every 1–2 weeks for a lineup or beard shape-up to keep everything even and defined.

Longer Styles and Locs

For those rocking longer hair or starter locs, maintenance looks a little different. You can go 4–6 weeks between trims or retwists, but it’s still important to keep your edges neat and your scalp healthy between sessions.

Why Consistency Wins

The difference between “you look nice today” and “you always look fresh” is your barber schedule. Regular appointments mean fewer bad hair days, fewer breakouts, and a smoother overall look.
