How often should a client typically get a haircut to maintain their hairstyle?

To maintain a hairstyle effectively, it is generally recommended that clients get a haircut every 6 to 8 weeks. This timeframe helps to keep the hair in good condition, ensuring that split ends are trimmed and the overall shape of the hairstyle is preserved.

Hair grows on average about half an inch per month, and after 6 to 8 weeks, any growth becomes noticeable, which can affect the style's sharpness and precision. Regular haircuts within this timeframe help clients maintain their desired look while allowing stylists to make any necessary adjustments to enhance or refine the style as client preferences or hair conditions change.

While some individuals may choose longer intervals between haircuts based on their specific hairstyle, hair health, and personal preferences, a 6 to 8 week schedule is a common guideline in the hairstyling industry for upkeep.
