It just means you will have to do it again, and the cut didn’t encourage growth. Never cut your hair during a mercury retrograde period. If you can don’t mess with your hair at all?
I have never had a problem with my hair growing. Since I discovered the calendar days, I try to follow it:
1. To remind myself that trimming hair, allegedly,
encourages growth
2. And, if I want to try something wild, maybe it will grow faster if I don't like it!
These recommendations do work. I was having problems growing my hair a couple of years ago and since I started following the dates my hair has grown thicker. I am so happy I found this information.
Is there also a certain time of the day to cut hair?
i have an appointment on May 21 to get a haircut 'cuz that's the onLy time & date avaiLabLe for, wiLL the date encourage hair growth too!? it's the second day after May 20!?
Hi, Mhel,
May 21 should be somewhat OK for cutting hair to encourage growth. The dates for May were given by our astrologer, who looks at various aspects to determine the absolute best times for certain activities. One factor that she looks at is whether the Moon is waxing or waning. Most astrologers agree that a basic requirement for determining a good day to cut hair to encourage growth is that it should occur during a waxing Moon (between new and full). May 21, 2024, meets that condition.
However, our astrologer has not included that date because it does not meet other aspects that she considers important. But May 21 should be a good choice at least as to the fact that it is during a time when the Moon is waxing.
Hope this helps!
What about May 23rd? It's a full moon and not quite waning yet. Or is it best to cut by the 22nd? Thanks so much for actually replying to people. I have been cutting my hair with the moon for about 7 years now and it works! Now I have a baby so the days I have available are harder, hence my question, haha.
Is the 22nd of May a good day to cut hair for growth
Hi Krystee-
Congratulations on your new baby! May 23 would be a good day to cut hair to encourage growth, but it is not considered the BEST day.
Thanks so much! He’s such a sweet baby. I really appreciate the reply.
