Moon Calendar for Haircuts

A one-line take on each of the 30 lunar days — today's is highlighted.

1UnfavorableThe cycle is resetting — hair cut today tends to grow back slowly and thin. Better to wait.

2UnfavorableStill deep in the new moon's rest phase — skip the scissors if you can.

3NeutralEnergy is only just stirring. Fine for a light dust of the ends, nothing more.

4FavorableGrowth pull is picking up — a good day to reshape for length.

5FavorableWaxing energy supports thickness — cut now and regrowth tends to come in fuller.

6FavorableOne of the stronger growth days — great for a fresh shape you want to last.

7FavorableFirst Quarter momentum — hair holds color and treatments especially well today.

8FavorableBold changes suit today's decisive, building energy.

9FavorableGrowth and shine both trend up — a confident day for a cut.

10FavorableStrength is building toward the full moon — good for volume-focused cuts.

11FavorableHair grown from today's cut tends to come in noticeably thicker.

12FavorableMomentum is strong — a great day to grow out a style faster.

13FavorableAlmost at peak — one of the best remaining days before the full moon for a length-boosting cut.

14FavorableFull moon eve — the peak lands tomorrow, but today already favors dramatic change.

15FavorableFull moon: the month's most potent day for a bold new cut or colour.

16NeutralJust past full — energy is shifting; a plain trim suits better than a big change today.

17NeutralWaning moon begins — better for maintaining a shape than starting a new one.

18NeutralA quiet day for hair — a trim is fine, nothing especially charged either way.

19FavorableWaning energy favors upkeep — ideal for trimming split ends without losing length.

20NeutralSteady, unremarkable day — fine for routine maintenance.

21NeutralMid-waning lull — save bold cuts for another day.

22NeutralLast Quarter balance — a fair day for evening out a shape.

23UnfavorableEnergy is fading toward the new moon — avoid anything drastic today.

24NeutralA calm day, better suited to care and conditioning than cutting.

25FavorableOne of the better waning days for a precise, no-fuss trim.

26NeutralLow energy day — hair grown now may come in finer than usual.

27UnfavorableApproaching the rest phase — the moon favours patience over scissors.

28UnfavorableNearly back at new moon — a weak day for growth, best skipped.

29UnfavorableDeep rest before the reset — hold off on cutting.

30UnfavorableThe final day of the cycle — wait for the new moon to pass before your next cut.

Moon & Soulmate

How tonight's Moon speaks to your closest relationships.

The Moon phase is simply how much of the Moon's sunlit half is visible from Earth at a given moment, as the Moon orbits us roughly every 29.5 days. It moves through eight named phases — New, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, and Waning Crescent — and the numbers above are calculated for the exact date and time you're reading this, not a rough monthly average.

Beyond astronomy, the Moon carries centuries of cultural meaning: gardeners still plant by it, sailors read tides by it, and many people track their own mood and energy against its waxing and waning. None of that is a scientific claim about the Moon's gravity on your hair or garden — it's a rhythm people find useful to notice, the same way a weekly planner helps even though the week itself isn't a law of physics.

Use the calendar below to jump forward or back a month and see any day's phase, moon sign, and lunar day at a glance. If you want a deeper daily breakdown — rituals, moods, and a page for every one of the 30 lunar days — our full lunar calendar goes further, and the personal Moon & Soulmate reading looks at how tonight's Moon speaks to your relationships.

The phase shown above updates automatically for today's date, calculated from real astronomical positions (astronomy-engine), not an approximation — including the exact illumination percentage and which zodiac sign the Moon is currently passing through.

Astronomers name eight: New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, and Waning Crescent. Together they span one lunar month of about 29.5 days.

A lunar day counts from the most recent New Moon (day 1) through day 30, resetting with each new cycle — unlike the calendar day, it tracks the Moon's own rhythm rather than the Sun's. Our lunar calendar below shows both side by side.

There's no scientific evidence that moon phases affect hair growth, but lunar haircut calendars are a long folk tradition many people still enjoy following — our day-by-day guide below reflects that tradition, not a clinical claim.
