    HI everyone,

    *If you haven't looked at it yet, I posted a thread about my haircut dilemma. If you're interested, check it out.

    Anyhow, after reading some of your comments I thought of another question in the same boat. How often do you get your hair cut?

    I'm an Asian guy with thick black hair, medium/short. I usually try to get a hair cut as frequently as possible, one reason being because of my budget. Generally I go in for a cut everyone 10 weeks. How about you all? Are you meticulous and go in every three weeks or so, or do you surpass my typical interval between cuts?

    I haven't cut mine since November as I like it to be free, messy, thick and long.

    6-8 weeks; mine grows fast. But the place I go to get it cut gives free neck trims in between, if you need them, so you can extend your cut by another couple weeks.

    When I cared about it, I would cut mine every two months or so. My mom was really on it because my each of my hairs are fine, but there are a lot of them, so they look thick, and they're really long. She would mostly tell me that the more I got it trimmed, the faster it would grow. That was back when I wanted it to grow...

    I got my last haircut about 2-3 weeks ago. I usually have my hair cut every 6weeks-2months, depending on my schedule. I use American Crew to keep it tame if I'm running a bit late on my hair cutting schedule :lol:.

    I also have medium short hairstyle. Ethnically, I'm not sure where my hair falls. I've always been told I have very fine hair, straight-very slight wavy, dark brown/black
    hair. I like it because it's very easy to cut and maintain and style (i.e. My hair is "done" in 15 seconds worth of styling)

    Not long - maybe a month. It grows fast, and I don't like it long at all.

    Used to cut it when it starts hitting my shoulders but now I'm thinking of letting it grow out and see how that goes.

    I cut it when it starts to annoy me.

    It's been about a month since my last haircut. I need to go in soon for a trim but I'm waiting on a couple paychecks. Once it touches my ears, it's usually a good sign it's time to trim it.

    Since 20 or so I usually give it a year at least. Haven't been to a barber in ages, I usually take care of it myself. There has been a learning curve.

    Usually about once a year. Haircuts make me nervous.

    Maybe every three months. I have an unnormal hatred for the small talk and awkward silences when getting my haircut :lol:

    I got my last haircut on July 30th. I usually get my haircuts about every 2 1/2 months or so.

    I had my last haircut somwhere in May, I think. Usually have it cut every 3 or 4 months, but it was cut super short last time so I think I'll wait a bit longer.
