In real life, people wouldn't change their hairstyles every month, but they
will change one day. However, most of the characters in anime never change
their hairstyles, even if the time span of the story last for years.

Why do characters in anime rarely change their hairstyles?

Why do characters in anime rarely change their hairstyles?


Keeping the character's look the same is easier for the animators, because it
allows the reuse of art work, and for the audience because it makes
recognizing the character easier.

This also allows changing the hairstyles for actual purposes, to symbolize
character development, or to reflect that there has been a long period of time
skipped. Having characters change their hair styles just because means that
these changes lose impact.
