Electional astrology

Haircut

By classical electional astrology, hair is best cut on a waxing Moon in fertile signs. This gives thickness and fast growth. If you want the opposite — slow regrowth — you cut on a waning Moon.

  • 11 September — Moon in Virgo. The Moon in Virgo — barren for hair (slow growth, split ends); New moon — subtle energy, better not to touch the body
  • 26 September — Moon in Aries. Full moon — emotions run high, the stylist may make a mistake
  • 27 September — Moon in Aries. Full moon — emotions run high, the stylist may make a mistake
  • 7 October — Moon in Virgo. The Moon in Virgo — barren for hair (slow growth, split ends)
  • 8 October — Moon in Virgo. The Moon in Virgo — barren for hair (slow growth, split ends)

What to pay attention to

  • ·If you want slow regrowth — do the opposite, cut on a waning Moon in Virgo
  • ·Colouring is best done within this same favourable period
  • ·On a full-moon day hairdressers tire more than usual — book a morning slot
