Frequently asked questions
How many favourable haircut days are there in 2016?
2016 has 145 favourable haircut days by folk tradition, 57 of them excellent — the days with the Moon in Leo or Virgo.
When should I cut my hair for faster growth in 2016?

Which zodiac signs are best for a haircut?

Is there scientific evidence?
No. The moon phase and its zodiac sign are computed astronomically and are verifiable, but their link to hair growth is folk belief — the calendar is entertainment, not advice.
The moon phase and its zodiac sign are computed astronomically (tropical zodiac). The haircut rules are folk tradition from the popular lunar almanacs — entertainment and curiosity, not advice, and without scientific confirmation.
