Every Six Weeks? Every Twelve? How Often You Should Really Get a Trim

A person with wet hair is having their hair cut; a hand trims the hair in a straight line at the back using scissors and a blue comb, much like how a bespoke facial adapts treatments to personal requirements.

It’s one of the most common questions we get asked at Macadamia Hair Spa, and also one of the most misunderstood: how often should you actually be getting a haircut?

Here’s everything you need to know, from what happens during the treatment to why your skin type makes all the difference.
