The moon's strong influence is not only reflected in the tides, it is also said to have an influence on the growth of plants. Many (hobby) gardeners use the different phases of the moon to sow and care for their green protégés.

But it's not just plants that are said to grow differently in the phases of the moon. The lunar calendar is also said to have an influence on our hair.

For this reason, many astro enthusiasts swear by cutting their hair according to the lunar calendar. You can read what this is all about here.

Lunar calendar: influence on cutting hair

As it orbits the Earth, the Moon's appearance changes depending on how it is illuminated by the Sun.

Overall, the moon appears in four different phases: as a new moon, a waxing and waning moon and as a full moon. These phases of the moon are called lunar calendars.

In order to get the perfect hairstyle, the lunar calendar should also be used for cutting hair. Here is an overview:

New Moon: Hair grows faster

According to astrologers, the waxing moon, the first period after the new moon, is said to be perfect for cutting tips.

The reason: Hair is supposed to grow back stronger and faster during this period of the lunar calendar.

Waxing moon: coloring and toning hair

As the moon waxes, active ingredients are said to be better absorbed. Ideal for an extensive hair treatment or a fresh new color.

Full moon: new haircut

Are you interested in change? The full moon is also said to have a positive effect on a new haircut. The new hairstyle should fall better during this phase and make your mane look healthier immediately.

Lunar calendar: cutting thick hair

Do you dream of full hair without split ends? In this case, you should make your next hairdresser's appointment when the next full moon is approaching.

During the full moon, a lot of energy is said to flow, which is said to strengthen the hair. Perfect for shortening your hair and removing brittle ends.

Lunar calendar: cutting short hair

Do you wear a pixie or clavi cut and don't feel like constantly having your hair trimmed? Then the phase of the waning moon is the perfect time for you to go to the hairdresser.

During the lunar phase between the full and new moon, the hair should be nice and grow back more slowly.

Moon in a water cutting: Better not to cut hair

The zodiac signs Scorpio, Pisces and Cancer represent bad hair days. While the moon is transiting, it's best not to plan a visit to the hair salon. During this time, according to the lunar calendar, our hair should be dull and more flaky than usual.

This is how the zodiac signs influence our hair

Speaking of hair color: The zodiac signs Aquarius and Gemini promise a particularly bright hair color. So from the end of January to the end of February and from the end of May to the end of June is the perfect time to color your hair.

Fire and earth signs represent a lot of volume and a strong mane. The days when the moon is in the sign of Leo are particularly noticeable. During this time, your hair should look particularly healthy and full.

The zodiac signs Aquarius, Libra and Gemini, as well as the waxing moon, are said to make your hair grow better. The best time for intensive hair care is during Sagittarius and Aries days.

During this time, even dry and brittle hair should be particularly receptive. So great for a moisturizing treatment or mask (you can get it on Amazon*).
