My Granny used the moon as a guide to cutting hair. She swore the boys hair was to be cut on the waning of the moon, so they would not need another for a long time. The girls hair would be cut on the growing of the moon so it would grow faster. Long hair being the style, or if you wanted to change style and were not sure you were going to like it. That way it would grow fast and the change would be gone fast. If you liked the new shorter style and wanted to stay, then next time you went with the boys for hair cuts. My dad followed this plan till his last days. And when I want to change my style I to find myself looking for a moon calendar.
