What it means to dream about hair

Two readings: the one the old dream book gives, and what this dream actually means.

What the traditional dream book says

Hair in the dream books stands for strength, health and money. Long and thick, it promises plenty in the years ahead. Falling out or going gray, it warns of losses and of worries you will end up carrying for a while.

What the dream really reflects

Hair in a dream is about your strength and about the way other people see you. If it falls out, you fear losing your looks or your influence. If you cut it yourself, you are ready to cut something off and start differently. It is about the picture you hold of yourself.

What changes the reading

The same dream reads differently, and here is what shifts it.

Your hair falls out
You fear losing your looks, your strength or your influence. Something has been quietly wearing down the picture you hold of yourself.
Cutting your hair
You are ready to cut something off and begin differently. This is a change you are choosing rather than one being done to you.
Long, thick hair
Strength and confidence are with you. You feel whole and in the right place, and the dream is simply telling you so in its own way.

FAQ

Is dreaming about hair a good sign or a bad one?

Neither one directly, because a dream does not prophesy. It shows your state, and whether that is light or heavy is yours to weigh once you look closely. Hair here is a mirror rather than a sentence.

The dream reflected you for one night. The chart of the sky holds your whole reflection.
