How Often Should You Get a Haircut? A Barber’s Guide to Staying Fresh

At Detailz Barbershop, one of the most common questions we get is: “How often should I get a haircut?”

The answer depends on your style, hair type, and how sharp you want to look — especially if you’re rocking a clean fade, beard trim, or precision cut. In this guide, we break it down so you’ll know exactly when to book your next appointment at your favorite Jacksonville barbershop.

✂️ Fade Haircuts – Every 1 to 2 Weeks

Fades look best when they’re tight. Whether you prefer a low fade, mid fade, drop fade, or skin fade, we recommend touching it up every 7–14 days to keep your lines clean and your style sharp.

Pro Tip: The cleaner the fade, the more often you should visit your barber. Ask about our quick lineup services for in-between maintenance.

🧔 Beard Trims – Every 1 to 2 Weeks

If you have a beard, regular upkeep is key. Uneven growth, dry skin, or straggly hairs can ruin your look fast. Our barbers suggest a beard trim or shape-up every 1–2 weeks—especially if you want your beard to stay lined and symmetrical.

💇‍♂️ Classic Haircuts – Every 3 to 4 Weeks

If you’re rocking a traditional scissor cut, taper, or business-style haircut, a visit every 3–4 weeks is ideal. This keeps your style neat without sacrificing length.

👶 Kids’ Haircuts – Every 3 to 5 Weeks

Little ones grow fast—and so does their hair. To keep your child looking fresh and camera-ready, book a cut every 3–5 weeks, depending on their hair type and style.

🌴 Seasonal Changes = New Look

Heading into summer or the holidays? It’s the perfect time to switch it up. Whether it’s a hot towel shave, new design, or color enhancement, Detailz Barbershop Jacksonville has you covered.
