Are u a female or male? I understand females don't need to cut their often. If you are a male you must be going for the Jesus look


I had a teacher in high school who rocked the Jesus look very well :tongue:
I'm a girl though :yes:

How often do you get a haircut then?

like every 1 to 2 months.

I get one every 4-6 weeks depending on length, season and my finances couldn’t afford to go once a week especially at £12 per cut.

Yeah the money would be a problem if it was my parents paying for it but I pay for it with my part time job

I get a haircut once a week maybe even every 4 days and my parents find it very odd and call me crazy but I don't think that's the case. My haircut style is a medium fade on the side and a 5 blade on the top not too short but short a bit like a crewcut. Every time I get a haircut it gives such a good feeling like a fresh feeling and adds confidence. I also pay for them with my own money and it's £12 a cut

I wanted to know how often people cut their hair and what their hairstyle is and if once a week is abnormal.


Rah how old are u bro do u work aswell

Ahhhh the afro, that's fine sometimes it suits people to not get their haircut often

That explains it, most girls I know cut theirs every few months apart from the ones with the crazy hairstyles

Excessive? If I could get a haircut every day I would, actually maybe that would be a bit stupid but you gotta maintain the fade


Haha well everyone is different anyway and I guess it just matters more/less to people, still not super weird though

What hairstyle do you go for? In guessing just a trim?

Yh yh u know what's up. Major pulling technique, get regular haircuts
Define “normal”

If it makes you feel fresh and confident, go for it and don’t worry about what others think! I would say it’s a little expensive rather than weird, but it’s your money and you do what you want with it.

I have had the same barber for 10 years since I was 6. He knows me like a family member always knows what haircut I want so the awkwardness is not there
Sounds like a waste of money personally, but if you enjoy it then you do you.

I only get mine cut around every 7 weeks.

Because I was reading the other threads and people were saying crazy stuff like once every 2-3 months. Just the thought makes me shudder😂😂


Everyone is different and has different styles - if I have the time, I will have a haircut once every 2 weeks, and I'll style my beard twice a week. however, I can get away with having a haircut once a month because of the style of my hair - it's long.

The second my sides start growing I cut them, gotta keep fresh


Yeah I get that but my hair just looks the same after a week, I guess it just grows slow.

Nah I ain't cutting air, I get a zero on the side (bald) and short hair on the top. It looks messed up when u let it grow after 1 week Al the lines fade away I like to keep it sharp


I have the comb over fade with shaved sides if you look at my profile. So I get ya. But I doubt ppl will mug you off if you let it grow for like two weeks. It don't look sharp though, true lol

Yh you have a similar trim to me so u get it lol. A lot of people have different styles though so the time they get it cut doesn't really correlate to me
