Are you missing your hairdresser

Message withdrawn at poster's request.

Actually, just thinking about my and OHs last visit to hairdresser early December (yes...it's high time, especiallyfor OH!) Hairdresser annoyed us because she spent the whole time talking to a rep in the salon, and ignored us apart from the haircutting. She did apologise afterwards! Perhaps a long absence will make her think.

My next appointment is for This Saturday, I will just have to let it grow for a while. At least I will be able to tie it back, I did colour it myself the other day as I feel it is important to maintain standards and still look after ourselves even though we are all locked down at home. Every week day I dress as if I was going into the office so does my husband, he currently needs the hairdresser more than I do, I guess I will need to scalp him with the shears again soon. his number 2 is more like a number 5 right now.

I have several dog grooming scissors that am contemplating using on myself ? bought with the aim of grooming our field spaniel but as he hated it I stopped and he now goes to the groomers.
I have also been thinking about going grey anyway so this may be a good opportunity to start the process

I had my hair cut and permed back in November and was due for a trim in January but didn't feel up to going so now I'm just trimming it myself to keep it 'tidy'. I've always cut my husband's hair using clippers and scissors, it's just a little trickier doing the back of my own hair. My hair is grey/white and I don't colour it so no roots to worry about. Been pondering whether to let it grow a bit longer and go for a change of style post-isolation. Anyone else growing out a style while no-one will see it?

I started growing out my silver hair in October & had dark blonde lowlights threaded through to avoid the harsh line. Seemed like a good idea at the time ?.
I want a wig.

There was a you tube video posted today from Ireland. An oldish man was outdoors, trimming his hair with sheep shearers. He did an amazing job, even getting the back done.

I bought some hygge hair bands. Using those at the moment. When I get back to virtual teaching I might have to think again.

No...have just cut at least 3" off mine ..all over..and coloured it..luckily I have very curly hair so mistakes dont really show

I've had short hair most of my life. It is also naturally curly. However, like many, I've never been happy with it and often thought I'd persevere and grow it longer. Now it's really happening! So I'll take that for the time being!

I've a "longer bob" style so will let it grow and will just trim my fringe. (Fortunately I gave up colouring a couple of years ago.)

I colour my own hair anyway so that's no problem; I have ordered a home hair cutting thing but don't know if I'll be brave enough to use it on myself. Might try it on my husband first...

Cut my own fringe so that was ok. Took 2 separate attempts at it so as not to go too short. Looks nice and level. Always dye my own hair and after putting on the dye I use a wide plastic brush to carefully brush it through. This makes sure I don't miss any places as my hair is quite long. Bought 2 boxes of dye before the lockdown so all ok so far.

Sorry, just noticed Gabriella said much the same above.

Holly Willoughby posted some photos of her touching up her roots, but I have noticed that the presenters are looking much more natural. For instance, I noticed that Louise Minchin on BBC Breakfast looked quite tired ..... and then I thought, perhaps that's how she always looks but now she doesn't have expert makeup with concealers and contouring to disguise it.

Dragonfly when it grows it will be even better than before.??

Have just watched something on Fb of a grey haired man cutting his own hair with what looks like sheep shears, it’s riveting as there is always the fear he will cut off his ear. He only uses one hand so the process was risky but he made a fairly decent job if it.
I had my hair cut a little shorter last time, knowing it woukd be a while. Don’t like it this short though!

Oops just realised , wrong thread it was meant for “ What will you do when lockdown is over ,

Loopyloo, my local garden centre is doing deliveries, so I got some compost and plants delivered at the weekend , Maybe your garden centre will do the same, they need customers more than ever now. I am missing getting out for a mooch round the charity shops too and going to the tip to get rid of the rubbish from the garden ,

Didn't Crystal Tipps have purple hair Marydoll ?

I was due a haircut on the 26th March so it is now well overdue. Mine is ideally a similar length to Judy Dench’s too, when I can get it cut that is. Really don’t like the feel of my hair when it gets too long, feels really heavy and gets so hot. We have a pair of hair clippers, unused up to yesterday. Persuaded DH to have a bash at running the clippers over my hair. Don’t know who was more frightened, him or me. Any road up, it worked, been thinned out loads on the back and sides. Top is a bit wonky but then that goes with my face anyway. Won’t hesitate to use them again, still got just over 9 weeks for it to grow.

There's a video of Holly Willoughby doing her own hair (roots etc) recently. She uses Garnier Nutrisse.

I was due for a haircut the day after lockdown, hairdresser said she would come but I asked her not to as she visits lots of people in their own homes.
My hair was getting shorter and shorter so a break will be no bad thing.

I was due at the hairdresser's today. I need to have it cut every five weeks, as it's so thick, don't know what I'm going to do, as I'm sheilding.
I still have my natural red, wavy hair. I will look like Crystal Tipps by the time I'm released.

I too usually keep mine Judi Dench length (although it never looks as good as hers). I’ve not had long hair since I had a P J Proby bow. It was a lot wavier then. I wonder what it’ll be like now.
