You’re right, I can do it for you.

I get a bit nervous doing it so probably best if I have a few drinks before I start

i was lucky and got mine cut 2 weeks before this all started... but i was thinking if i had what i did, and add 12 weeks on it.... i would have a 70's afro a la samuel jackson in pulp fiction....

no one would have needed that!!!!

there are going to be some people now who have missed the boat that could look scary in 3 months time!!

the amount of haircut "mishaps" could be frightening!

No. I guess I'll have to start embracing the natural curls and no more bouncy blow drys for me.

I've decided I'm not getting it cut, or trimming my beard until this is all over - I'm actually quite curious as to what it will look like as I've always had it cut short every 4-6 weeks without fail....

I have a long reach (extendable to 3m) chainsaw/hedge trimmers if anyone needs a trim while maintaining social distancing.

I can’t guarantee it will be a tidy cut and take no responsibility for accidental beheadings

I haven’t been to the hairdresser since last month. I was due to go Friday cos why grey/white hairs are bad already. I don’t want to put a box dye on either cos I’m trying to go lighter.

Also my nails need doing and my eyelash infills but all that stuff is small fry compared to what’s going on.

Was thinking about taking my boy to the barbers this week so we could both get our hair cut, but that won't be happening now, so we'll just have to wait until this all blows over and they're open again.

Or maybe long hair is about to make a comeback
