Yes, fiddle bow hairs do wear down over time. Frequent use can lead to fraying, breaking, or loss of grip, which affects the bow's performance. Regular maintenance, such as rehairing, is necessary to ensure optimal sound quality and playability. Typically, bow hairs are replaced every few months to a couple of years, depending on usage.
