How Often Should You Cut Your Hair?

Question: My hairstylist insists that I need a haircut every six to eight weeks to maintain my layers. But I'd prefer to save money by only getting it cut every three to four months, since each haircut costs $50. Do you really need to get a cut as often as my hairstylist says?

Answer: It depends on your hairstyle.

Short cuts with bangs or lots of layers require frequent trimming to keep the style looking fresh. Longer hair with less layering can grow out gracefully with fewer trips to the salon. Use a conditioning mask like L'Oréal Ever Pure Moisture Restorative Masque once a week to keep hair healthy between trims
