I’m a guy and I have one every 2 or 3 months. But at work I think some guys have one more than once a month because they look groomed all the time.
PS: I trim my beard once a week. I’m talking about haircuts specifically.
TIL most dudes on Lemmy grow long hair
I have long hair but I touch up my undercut every other week or so, i just do it myself
haven’t cut my hair in years, long hair supremacy.
A full haircut once a month with a cleanup 2 weeks in. My hair is thick as fuck and grows pretty quickly, so I need to stay on top of it.
I cut my own hair for years using clippers, but within the last few years started going to get it cut because they do a better job.
You made of money?
whenever my family nags me about it too much lol
I get mine done about every 1-2 months. Usually when it starts poking me in the ears and getting annoying.
My mate at work who’s very fashion conscious gets his done every 3 weeks or so.
I’m a “two on top, one on the sides” dude. I’m the same, the second my hair starts coming over my ears then I’m away to the barber. Two months is decent, though if I’m not able to get there through work or being away from home, I’ll stretch it to three months but I feel a bit like Noel Gallagher when my hair starts coming down to my lugholes.
That said, I treat it as a bit of a relaxation sesh. I’ll ask the barber for a “full service” and close my eyes for half hour or 45 mins and let the barber do his thing with the clippers and the hot shave and the massage and all that jazz. A guilty pleasure every other month or so.
Once a year. I look like an animal all the time
Even after the haircut?
Then they look like a well groomed animal.
I look like a human 3 months a year: mid autumn - mid winter.
Started dating a girl who liked it when I grew it out… so haven’t cut it just about ten years. She’s gone, but the hair stayed. I never found a barber who could consistently cut it the way I liked, so the only alternative I could see is regularly buzzing everything off.
I think once every 2 months is about average. I wait 5 months.
Once a year, sometimes once in two years. But I’m also not working in a job where my haircut matters.
I haven’t had a haircut since I was 19 (I am currently 40).
Hair grows 6" a year. Your hair is 20 feet long?
Well, first let me say that you should go to the barber as often as you want, not as often as an average man does.
I personally go every 3 months because I have long hair and only need to get it into a bit of shape regularly. If I had a short hairstyle I would go more often.
I think I had one back in the late 90s.
Now-a-days nature takes care of it.
Like birds come in and eat your hair or something?
i shave my head twice a week, because i have the fantastic luck to have incredibly thick hair, and since 22, mpb.
But you prefer the bald look?
put it this way, i’m no patrick stewart. i did not pull the look off.
About every 3-4 weeks.
Yeah, I used to go to a place where they’d schedule me out based on three weeks, which I liked better, but now this new place leaves it to me to remember and schedule myself. I don’t remember, so it’s closer to 4-5 weeks.
I donate my hair about every 18 months. 😉
Every 5-10 years as it’s to expensive for me to get one and have to be incredibly lucky to get one.
You live on a deserted island or something? 😁
It’s called Amerikkka. You know. 4th world country, basic necessities are 400% percent expensive, no medical care that doesn’t cost 4,000 bucks.
Are you living in a deserted island or something? Because everyone knows the fuck hell whole of this Amerikkka country.
I cut my hair approximately once every three months
It’s been like 6 months for me. I’ve gone over a year before. I have thrash metal hair though. lol.
🤘
My spouse goes every 4 weeks. He has an undercut and doesn’t trust my shaky hands with the trimmer :D
Twice a year. I always go for a short cut and then grow it out until it annoys me.
I never cared about having a consistent look.
Do you have problems with the tips getting dry and looking unkept?
Not at all. It’s perfectly straight and looks healthy, no matter what I do - as long as I wash it every other day.
I only use one of those all in one shampoos and a blow dryer. I don’t even use a comb or brush. Yet, I got quite a few comments about having especially healthy looking hair from woman.
I gave up and just grew it out cos I would need one after like a month
I think you’re technically supposed to every two weeks. I have very short hair and that’s how often I cut mine to keep its style. I taught myself to cut my own hair though, for most people this would be very expensive.
I don’t get my hair cut that frequently, but to each their own. This was downvoted to zero when I found it, I like to imagine one of the “six months” or “never” guys were responsible.
why would you be supposed to cut your hair in any specific way? are you in the army or something?
no lol, my hair is really short on the sides, like a couple centimeters. If you have super short hair then you’re supposed to cut it every 2 weeks to keep it short. It’s longer on top.
My hair grows fast enough that if I wanted it to stay a specific style it’d need cut probably more than once a month. However, I typically just change the way I part it as it grows. It doesn’t look too bad at any stage, though I basically just slowly transition from looking like a fed to looking like the guys in the fourth Harry Potter movie lol.
It takes about 3-4 months for it to go from 2in on top to being annoyingly long. Probably closer to 5 for it to be like getting in my mouth when the wind blows.
And hey you can have long hair and still look “groomed” btw, just got to figure out how to style it right
to looking like the guys in the fourth Harry Potter movie
I think it’s called the “wolf’s mane” look. Pretty awesome.
And hey you can have long hair and still look “groomed” btw
I want to go for this look but i need an ungodly amount of shampoo since my hair gets sweaty. Let’s see
I cut my hair myself, whenever I want a change :) (once every few months)
Same, except I kinda just cut off a bit here and there as adjustments every now and then. So I never really have a new haircut, it stays somewhat stable.
I shave my head in the shower every couple of days. Trim my beard once a week.
I haven’t had my hair cut since ‘08.
I could probably go get it done, but it looks alright and doesn’t seem to grow further than the small of my back.
I’m a 40-year old woman.
You should probably trim the ends! 17 years is…kind of way too long to go without a trim. You might have split ends.
I try to do every 6 weeks
If I’m going to a wedding or something at the 4+ week mark I’ll get it done early
If I don’t get it done until 8+ weeks it starts to get into an unmanageably scruffy zone
Every three to four months and I cut my own hair now too

The last cut was in 1999 to clean up an undercut. It got longer for about 15 years after that. Now it gets shorter, thinner, and blder, every day.
