Mine is doing fine. I have always cut mine at home so there is no difference. I have a very easy haircut and it easy to maintain. I just shave the sides and have nr2 on the top. I trim the sides every 3 days so that I keep the fade going on the top, it is fun to do it yourself too  |

It's a bit uneven and could probably do with some layers, but I'm doing a lot of deep conditioning and have ditched heat treatment, so it's soft, not frizzy like usual, and feels really healthy.
And it's so long help  |

Mine is a mess, I was due one before lockdown and its not been touched since.
It now 3 months overdue.
I am able to do a mohawk or Keith Flint.
Even had bunches last week because I could.
I am having to use conditioner now it's so long.
And get knots when dry it with a towel.

Is a hairdresser. .....
Not back till the 4th.....
I've been reading with amusment, all the.."I am not meeting during lock down,"
And wondering if their in box is as begging as my what's app messages. Some of my gentleman are very demanding about their skin fade lol .
These are going to be a few of my popular remarks,..
"....oh your girl friend you say..?"
"And this person professes to LOVE you, you say?"
" if you brig the trimmer to the shop and hand them over, we will say no more about it"
And the classic....
: do you want me to pop a pair of knickers on it; 'cause you look like a right c....."
So looking forward to it really. |

I bought a Wahl clipper set and watched some excellent YouTube videos by Scottish guy called The One Minute Barber on very simple way for guys to cut their own hair and I must say it worked a treat. Not perfect.. But you wouldn't expect it to be but good enough to stop me looking like Wurzel Gumage. |

I have given myself two hair cuts since lockdown.
First was a grade 0 on the sides and left the top long....sort of like a peaky blinders style.
Then I shaved it all off...first time I have done that.
I now look very young, as it grows back very fluffy indeed  |

"Having to put mine up everyday atm need get it sorted soon though i am happy with how long its getting lols"
I've finally hit the point where mine goes up without needing pins. Thank God
Growing out pains is maybe a reason to keep it long |

"It's not.......desperately need one and I'm not confident enough to cut it myself. There was a reason we were called the hair bear bunch at school  "
Get it all chopped off, what’s the worst that could happen |

"I usually have layers put in and a deep conditioner every 4 months. Now it's a wild, frizzy and bushy mess lol
I've been using the Loreal Great Lengths stuff to deep condition."
thank you I must pick some up on my next trip to the supermarket. Need to do something with it. |

I grade 0 the lot as I am pretty much bald, I wet shaved it last week for the first time in years. I constantly do my face fuzz differently, a goatee, or neat trimmed beard, had a go at full on beard a few times. It's down below I have been letting go of doing lately |

My (her) hair is all one length, mid length Bob. I have not gone near it with scissors or box dye, I am going to hold off until my hairdressers reopens.
Mr has had a few cuts or rather shaves at home, its looked good in all fairness but nothing as nice as when the barbers do it properly.
Her x |

Not too bad, I've been doing my fringe myself I just need an inch or so taken off the length because I'm sure some of my split ends have split ends!
The boys in the house are ok since we got some do it yourself clippers |

"I hacked off my ponytail. I can still just about tie it back but is the shortest it's been since I was a kid. Always wanted to shave my head, but I don't think it would suit me. "
Do itttt it’ll soon grow back!! |

I'm so glad I'm not alone,
Thankfully I have baseball caps to wear and I wear a hard hat for work,
When I wake up I look like the man from Home Alone where he puts his hands on the taps and gets electrocuted, |

I was booked for a trim at the begining of lockdown, my hair grows very fast, usually have it cut every 5 to 7 weeks !! So now it's loonnnggggg, its also very curly.
Last summer i started to grow my fringe out and its looking a good length now |

I work in an environment where both social distancing and working from.home is impossible. These facts, combined with having a colleague who is a trained hairdresser, means that I've had a decent haircut in return for a bottle of wine.
Shame she's not on Fab, because I definitely would! |

Clippers work wonders. Tell you what though, the amount of contortions to cut the back is insane! And using the two mirror trick can cause some serious disorientation |

a quandary, could you change my mind? |
It's the longest its ever been, thankfully I've managed to trim the back a little. I forgot I had curly hair when I was younger (much much younger), the waves are coming back. |

Oddly enough my hair hasn't grown at all during lockdown... usually it would be growing super quick and I'd be looking like cousin IT in the length of time we've been in lockdown.
Just my fingernails and toenails have increased in growth because of it .. having to cut my nails every 2-3 days now its frustrating I just cant stand nails  |
