How often should men have their hair cut?
How often men should have their hair cut depends on their rate of hair growth and the hair style they’re sporting.
On average, hair grows about a half inch per month. It is affected by diet, exercise and stress, with faster growth associated with healthier habits and lifestyle. Short hairstyles need cutting more often to continue looking great. Medium and long hair can wait a little longer respectively.
Time frames for men's haircuts
Short styles: Buzz or military cut, crew, Ivy league, fade, quiff, taper and crop.
Short styles are usually easy to maintain and a very popular haircut for men in Vancouver. These fresh, clean looks emphasize angular features and are the ultimate in get-up-an-go styling. Short hair benefits from a regular cut-&-style that ranges from every 2 weeks for the shortest, to every 3-4 weeks for the longer of the short cuts. This schedule should keep short haircuts looking crisp and smart.
Medium styles: Pompadour, comb over, slick back, mohawk/fauxhawk, side part, textured.
Medium men’s haircuts in Kitsilano feature textures, waves, with a range of creative options for all hair types. Styles combining short sides with volume on top are one of today’s most popular trends. Variety is key here with looks shifting from neat and serious for work to suave and cool after hours. Medium cuts are easy to maintain with minimal effort. They’ll need touching up every month or two, to keep them under control.
Long styles: man bun, pony tail, long straight, long curly.
Long hair is good for several months between cuts, with gentle shampooing and conditioning as needed. It’s time to get in for a trim as soon as you notice frizz or split ends. Cutting off damaged hair will keep long hair looking healthy and the damage from moving upward, requiring more to be cut off.
We hope this guide helps. Additionally, styles like braids, twists and cornrows benefit from a trip to the hair salon at least every 2 months.
