Haircut calendar: August 2033

When to have a haircut in August? 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.
