It's one of the most common questions we get — and the honest answer is, it depends. Here's how to figure out the right schedule for you.

It Depends on Your Goals
Growing your hair out? You can typically stretch to every 3 to 4 months with just a light trim. Maintaining a precise shape or shorter style? Every 4-6 weeks keeps things looking sharp.
Signs You're Overdue
Split ends that catch on brushes or clothing
Hair that feels thin or stringy at the ends
A style that's lost its shape or movement
Increased breakage or frizz
