Haircut Calendar December 2025: Favorable Days for Cutting Hair
Lunar haircut calendar for December 2025: favourable days for haircuts, colouring and image updates before the New Year holidays
The first month of winter is a particularly important time to take care of your hair health. During this period it is especially vulnerable: cold air, indoor heating, wind and constant temperature changes can dry it out, making it brittle and lifeless. That’s why December is an ideal moment to review your routine and adjust your hair care to winter conditions.
With the winter holidays ahead, December also inspires experiments. A new haircut or hair colour can completely change your mood, refresh your look and boost your confidence before festive events, meetings and corporate parties. When it comes to colour, warm chocolate and caramel shades work especially well in winter, creating a feeling of softness and cosiness. Deep chestnut and dark blonde tones look natural and elegant, while copper and golden highlights add radiance. For the bold, cool platinum blondes and ashy variations create a “winter fairy-tale” effect.
The lunar haircut calendar for December 2025 will help you understand when it is better to trim the ends, refresh your image or choose a new colour. The Moon’s phases are traditionally believed to influence hair growth speed and overall condition, which is why many people rely on them when planning haircuts. Choosing the right day according to the lunar calendar — combined with thoughtful winter care and a well-chosen colour — will help you preserve the beauty and health of your hair and enter the season looking your best.

Detailed lunar haircut calendar for December 2025
1–4 December
The first days of the month are a great period for changing your hairstyle or colour — a time when scissors work not only with the shape but also with your mood. A haircut on these days seems to remove fatigue, bring new energy and help you welcome winter with a fresh outlook on yourself. Colouring hair in deep dark shades will be especially rich and long-lasting, with the colour staying vivid and intense. And if you have long dreamed of going blonde, the transition will be soft, even and as natural as possible.
5 December — Full Moon
On this day hair becomes more sensitive and reacts too sharply to any interference, so it is better to postpone haircuts and colouring. Instead, this is a perfect time to restore inner balance: calming meditation, a warm oil mask and aromatic care rituals will help fill the body with peace and give your hair nourishment and softness.
6–8 December
A haircut on these days will not only change your appearance but also give you a feeling of lightness, clarity and inner strength. Your hair will respond gratefully: it will become thicker, healthier, shinier and will grow back quickly. A visit to the salon during this period is almost guaranteed to be satisfying.
9 December
This day should be approached with caution when it comes to any drastic transformations. The lunar calendar does not recommend cutting or colouring your hair today, as there is a risk of losing shine, weakening the roots or ending up with a dull shade. Instead of changing your image, dedicate the day to care: deep hydration, nourishing masks and warm wraps will bring much more benefit. Let your hair rest and recover its strength.
10–14 December
During this period, the Moon favours updating your look in the way you have long wanted. A new haircut will not only highlight your facial features but also give you extra confidence. Hair is particularly manageable on these days: it grows faster and looks thicker and healthier. Colouring will also work very well — the shade will go on evenly, become deep and dimensional, while golden and wheat tones can literally brighten your look and earn you plenty of compliments.
15 December
This is a calmer and more neutral day. It does not promise dramatic breakthroughs, but it also does not carry significant risks. If you have already planned a salon visit, you can safely go — just don’t expect “magic” changes. However, it is an excellent time for strengthening treatments: lamination, keratin or “botox” repair will perform at their best, giving your hair the shine and smoothness it often lacks in winter.
16–17 December
These days carry the energy of renewal with elements of luck and material success. Folk beliefs consider them favourable for everything related to beauty and wellbeing. A haircut can become a kind of “talisman” attracting prosperity, while colouring — especially in deep chocolate shades — will be intense, long-lasting and very expressive. Even a small change of style on these days can noticeably lift your mood and increase your confidence.
18 December
The day’s energy is unstable, and any interference with your hair may make it stiffer, more unruly, dull or even prone to breakage. It is better to give yourself a rest and focus on pampering care: hydration, warm masks, nourishing oils and scalp massage — all of this will bring much more benefit today.
19–21 December
This is a wonderful time for those who want to refresh their look before the winter holidays. A new hairstyle will add freshness, and short trendy haircuts will be especially successful, beautifully accentuating facial features. Colouring in bright or unusual shades will help express your individuality and add a touch of festive magic to your appearance. The colour will be rich, and your overall look more striking and harmonious.
22–25 December
These days are particularly good for updating men’s and teenagers’ haircuts, adding edginess to the image or choosing light avant-garde styles. Hair will grow actively after cutting, so this is a great opportunity to experiment without long-term commitments. Women can also consider gentle changes: trimming the ends, doing light toning or a soft wave.
26–29 December
These days bring a softer, more balanced atmosphere that is ideal for creating charming blow-dries and elegant, feminine haircuts. Hair will grow more slowly, while colour, on the contrary, will wash out faster, forming interesting pastel transitions. Bold, fashion-forward shades will look particularly expressive. On the eve of the New Year holidays, it is worth allowing yourself a bit of creativity — it will show to best advantage right now.
30–31 December
The end of the year coincides surprisingly well with extremely favourable days for changing your image. It is a real gift before the holidays: any colouring is likely to deliver exactly the result you expect. The shade will be even, deep and long-lasting, even if you choose complex colours or techniques.
A haircut will also be successful: the shape will hold for a long time, and the hairstyle itself will look neat and festive. These days are ideal for the final touches before seeing in the New Year.
