How often should I get my hair cut?

Trevor Sorbie (Director) gives expert video advice on: How often should I get my hair cut?; I'm dying my hair - how do I know which colour will suit me?; Can I slow down the greying process? and more...

The average regularity with which a person should get a haircut is every six weeks. When I say six weeks, that's for somebody who has a hairstyle. The reason you need it cut every six weeks when you have a hairstyle is your hair actually grows out of the hairstyle. It just gets too long so it doesn't stand up any more or doesn't do what it did a couple of weeks ago. But with long hair, you can let it grow longer because it's not a hair style, it's just long hair. All it's doing is getting longer. So you can probably go as long as two and a half, three months before you have the ends trimmed with straight, one length, long hair. But with hair styles, usually, the average client comes here every six weeks.
