How Often Should You Cut Your Hair for Healthy Growth? Expert Insights from a Celebrity Stylist

Many of us think we know best for our hair, often skipping professional advice from hairstylists in favor of DIY experiments. These can lead to damage, but experts agree: a simple routine keeps hair thriving—the regular salon trim. Contrary to myth, cutting your hair promotes healthier strands and even supports growth. Celebrity hairstylist Angela Christine (Instagram: Angela C Styles), featured in Seventeen magazine, shares her professional wisdom.

So, how often should you book that hairdresser appointment for peak hair health?

The Ideal Haircut Schedule for Healthy, Vibrant Hair

No shortcuts exist for long-term hair health—regular trims are key. Frequency depends on your hair's nature. For those with textured hair, experts recommend trimming every 2-3 months.

For non-textured hair, it hinges on your style: refresh short haircuts every 3-4 weeks, bobs every two months, and long hair can wait up to 4 months before needing a touch-up.
