This is possible thanks to the calculations of biodynamic agriculture, which takes into account the influence of the Moon on the growth of plants and, applying the same principles that allow it to determine which are the most appropriate agricultural or garden tasks at any given time, it can also establish the optimal dates and times to favor certain effects when cutting your hair or waxing.

In the same way that they influence plants and tides, the position and orbit of the Moon can influence the speed at which your hair will grow and in its ability to revitalize itself and grow stronger.

The first two correspond to the best dates to cut your hair depending on what our goal is, to grow strong or to grow faster; The third, the «flower» period, tells us that it is a good time to shave.
