Haircut calendar: September 2020

When to have a haircut in September? Folk tradition says hair grows back faster after a waxing-Moon haircut and keeps its shape longer after a waning-Moon haircut. Taurus, Leo, Virgo and Capricorn are considered favourable signs. These claims are not scientifically proven.
