Moon’s August 2026 Phases Guide Hair‑cutting and Beauty Dates

A lunar calendar for August 2026 lists the Moon’s phases – quarter waning on 5 August, new Moon on 12 August, quarter waxing on 19 August and full Moon on 27 August – and suggests dates for hair‑cutting, hair growth, and other beauty treatments. The guide advises cutting hair during the waxing period (20‑27 August) to promote faster growth, while the waning phase (1‑5 August and 29‑31 August) is recommended to keep a cut longer. It also notes suitable days for hydration treatments and colour changes.

The practice, rooted in ancient biodynamic agriculture and astrology, is followed by millions despite a lack of scientific evidence linking lunar phases to hair health. Times are given for Spain (peninsular) and the information is circulated in both Spanish‑language and English‑language outlets.
