How Often Should You Get a Haircut and a Beard Trim?

A beard needs a design once or twice a week, at least three times a month. Hair depends on the cut: short cuts and fades need a return visit sooner. Beard and hair hydration is recommended every 15 days.
Getting a haircut and a beard trim at the right time changes the result and avoids that overdue look. But what is the right interval? It changes depending on the service, and the Von Barbarov team advises each client during the appointment. Here is the general guide.
Beard: once or twice a week
For a beard, ideal upkeep is once or twice a week, and the minimum frequency is three times a month. That keeps the outline clean, the cheek and neck lines defined and the shape in place. The beard design takes about 30 minutes and includes a hot towel, razor and a finish with balm and oil.
Trimming your beard at home has a hidden cost: the messy sink, the risk of getting the shape wrong with no way back, the lost time and the money spent on disposable blades. At the barbershop, you get the result and a moment of relaxation.
Hair: it depends on the cut
There is no single number for hair. Short cuts and fades lose their shape faster, and people who wear a fade usually come back more often. Longer cuts, which depend on length, hold up longer between visits. In the initial consultation, the barber understands how you wear the cut and recommends the right interval to come back.
If your routine requires you to always look sharp, it is worth combining hair and beard in the same visit. The Club has plans that cover both, see the Club page.
Hair and beard hydration: every 15 days
Hydration replenishes the minerals, vitamins and water in the hair, and ideal upkeep is every 15 days. The signs that it is time are brittle, dull, lifeless hair or split ends. It is a 20-minute service that does not require a booking: we use schedule optimization, so you can do it during the same visit as your haircut or beard.
Other everyday care
- Use a shampoo made for beards and avoid hair shampoo, because the pH of the skin on your face is different.
- Apply oil or balm to hydrate and protect the hairs from dirt in the air and pollution.
- For the skin on your face, facial therapy, about 25 minutes, helps with oiliness and blackheads.
