Cutting and washing your hair on this day can cause dandruff, and perming and colouring can make your hair brittle and fragile. A new hairstyle will not last long.
Getting a haircut today can be detrimental to your health. It is acceptable to dye your hair in dark, unadorned shades, provided that natural dyes are used.
A haircut on the waning moon will strengthen the roots but slow down the regrowth of new hair, so plan your image carefully.
Avoid going to the hairdresser or beauty salon on Friday. Hair grows back slowly after a haircut.
