Does hair grow faster after cutting it? In short, no. Cutting the ends doesn’t have any influence on how fast the hair grows. Hair growth is determined by the hair follicles on your head and the speed depends on a combination of factors, such as genes, food, and the climate you live in.

There’s a similar misconception about hair growth on the body. Again, the follicles determine the hair growth. Cutting or shaving the ends doesn’t influence the follicles, nor does it make the hair any thicker.

So why do we hear that cutting ends is good even though it doesn’t affect hair growth?
