Dreaming of someone cutting your hair can mean different things in the context of the dream. Hair is often associated with power, identity and self expression so a dream of someone cutting your hair can evoke different emotions.
If you dream of going to a salon for a haircut and your hair looks healthy and beautiful in the dream and you enjoy the experience, the dream means you’re in a phase of positive change in your life. You’re cutting off the “dead ends” to make way for something new and beautiful to grow.
On the other hand if you dream of someone cutting your hair against your will or you don’t like the haircut and feel upset and regretful in the dream, this means you’re being given your power by another person or situation in your life.

What Chakra is Hair?
There is no chakra for hair. Our physical life is more connected to our root chakra which is in charge of our basic needs and survival instincts. This chakra also controls our body’s hormones which affects hair growth and health. The crown chakra is the only chakra outside our body which sits above our head. If you have thick and voluminous hair the crown chakra will sit within your hair above your head.
Spirituality and Salon
A salon or an imaginary hair studio in your dream means a space for transformation and self discovery. The tools in this space – scissors, razors and clippers – add to the symbolism.
Scissors means cutting off the past or making an irreversible decision. A razor means a fresh start while clippers means gradual changes and small steps towards your goals. But these also means caution, potential risks and uncertainties.
