True or False Hair Care: Cutting your hair can help prevent hair loss.
False: Hair feels thicker after a haircut because hair is thicker at the base. Cutting your hair will not help to prevent male- or female-pattern baldness. Shorter hair often looks and feels thicker but cutting your hair won’t alter its normal biologically determined growth rate or overall texture.
True or False Hair Care: Cutting Hair during a Full Moon Will Speed Up the Growing Process

True or False Hair Care: Split Ends Can Be Repaired Without Cutting

True or False Hair Care: Shampooing Every Day Keeps Hair Clean and Healthy
False: Only very oily hair needs a daily washing; everyone else should find a way to refresh their style in between shampooing to avoid depriving your ends of vital oils. Try rinsing and conditioning (co-wash) every other day instead of shampooing daily.

True or False Hair Loss: If You Leave Your Hair Alone It Will Grow Faster
False. If you don’t do anything at all to your hair it tends to become weak and dry. Hair needs to stay hydrated to be healthy, so this means drinking plenty of water and using a deep conditioner every so often to help lock that moisture in your hair. This will help with frizz, tangles and hair loss as well.
