Many people choose a haircut date based not only on their schedules but also on the lunar calendar. According to folk beliefs, the Moon's phases affect hair growth, and certain days are considered favorable for attracting financial luck.
RBC-Ukraine explains when to get a haircut in November 2026, which dates are best for a hairstyle refresh, and when to schedule a "money" haircut.
Moon phases in November 2026
Before choosing a haircut date, consider the main lunar phases. In November, they fall on the following dates:
-
November 1–8: waning Moon
-
November 9: New Moon
-
November 10–23: waxing Moon
-
November 24: Full Moon
-
November 25–30: waning Moon.
Can you get a haircut during New Moon?
In the lunar calendar, the New Moon symbolizes the beginning of a new cycle. This day isn't considered ideal for experimenting with your appearance, so many people postpone drastic style changes until another date.
If you follow these beliefs, you can use November 9 to choose a hairstyle, find inspiration, and consult your stylist, then schedule the haircut for another day.
Can you get a haircut during Full Moon?
The Full Moon falls on November 24. In traditional calendars, this day is sometimes associated with heightened emotions, and people are advised against making impulsive decisions about their appearance.
If you have been dreaming of a short haircut or a dramatic color change, decide on the result in advance rather than choosing on impulse. At the same time, no scientific evidence suggests that getting a haircut during the Full Moon, in itself, worsens hair health.
November 1–8 and 25–30: Time to maintain your style
The waning Moon is traditionally associated with preserving results. These dates may therefore be worth considering if you want only to trim your ends, freshen up your haircut, or maintain its shape.
This option may suit those who aren't planning drastic changes and want to keep their usual look. However, how long a haircut stays neat depends mainly on its shape, hair texture, and growth rate, not the lunar phase.
November 10–23: A period for refreshing your hairstyle
The waxing Moon is traditionally considered a favorable time to refresh your look. If you have been planning to trim split ends, change your hair length, or try a new haircut, consider November 10 to 23.
This period is also a good time to visit your stylist before important meetings, holidays, or other end-of-month events. If you want a dramatic change, discuss the desired result and the care your new hairstyle will require with your hairdresser in advance.
'Money' haircut days in November
In folk beliefs, certain dates in the lunar calendar are symbolically associated with financial luck, prosperity, and new opportunities.
For this reason, some call them "money" haircut days.
These beliefs say that to attract good luck and money, you should get a haircut on November 6, 13, 19, or 29.
Important note: No scientifically validated list of such dates exists.
