Regular trims are essential for keeping your hair healthy, strong, and stylish. But how often should you schedule a cut? The answer depends on your hair type, length, and styling habits. At Hair By Lorena, we help clients in Barrhaven maintain beautiful, well-groomed hair with expert trims, balayage, and highlights—all in the comfort of their home.
Why Regular Trims Matter
Even if you’re growing out your hair, skipping trims can lead to damage. Split ends travel up the hair shaft, making hair look dull and causing breakage. A fresh trim removes damage, keeps your style looking polished, and helps hair grow healthier over time.

How Often Should You Trim Your Hair?
For Short Hair & Precision Cuts
- Every 4-6 weeks
- Keeps styles like bobs, pixie cuts, and layered looks sharp and structured.
For Medium to Long Hair
- Every 8-12 weeks
- Prevents split ends while maintaining length and shape.
For Growing Out Hair
- Every 10-12 weeks
- A small trim keeps ends healthy while allowing growth.
For Damaged or Colored Hair
- Every 6-8 weeks
- Helps remove dry, brittle ends and keeps balayage or highlights looking fresh.

✅ Split ends or fraying strands
