"Desperate to get a haircut. Last time, I shaved it all off.
It's not as warm weather-wise this time so might just wait until the barbers open up again  "
Another month i think. Can you soldier through? |

I bleached (big mistake!) a piece of my long fringe with the idea being it would go white and frame my face and blend in with my grey/dark hair.
Only it never went white blonde, it went ginger. So now I have tri colour hair. I’m styling it out now and pretending I meant it to go that colour. |

I certainly hope so! My hair is thick and tends to grow out rather than down but I reckon I can peer through  |

I cut about five or six inches off the other day as I wanted a change and the ends were dead. It's a little wonky but I love it. I've not had hair this short for a very long time.
I only visit hairdressers once a year so I'm not missing them too much luckily. But so many are doing sneaky mobile appointments anyway.  |

"I just let mine grow. Back to pre Summer length. I miss lady who tints my eyebrows and lashes for me.. feeling bit face naked "
Same! I’ve got blonde lashes and eyebrows so need the help to look awake lol! Have started using home dye kits for brows though and it’s not too bad |

Let it grow. I'm so happy with the length it's getting finally. Little heat tools and it's growing beautifully. Soon I will have a mane of hair and my hairdresser won't take it away from me. |

My eyebrows are just delicate. They need next to none shaping but bit more colour! I have long lashes naturally just not as dark as my hair on the head
Please message me the name I will give it a go. |

I have cut my own hair for many years. I have a high fade with shaved sides. I have nr3 on top then I use the razor blade for the sides, to get the side fade I use nr3 then 2 and 1, start with the highest number first, it is very easy to do |

I’ve managed to get mine cut before each of the lockdowns occurred 
I colour my own hair. I’ve seen my hairdresser cut my fringe often enough to have a go and keep it in half decent shape
I use olaplex products to keep my hair in really good condition |

I looked years ago at colouring the tips of my hair, i bleached some and it went ginger. I had a lucky escape |

Olaplex products are fab swear by them.
I've trimmed my fringe. I tend to steer clear of heat 90% of the time by doing a vintage wetset my roots could do with a top up but use hair scarfs or berets if I don't feel like rocking it.

I trimmed and coloured my mums hair yesterday.
Im not a hairdrrsser but bought a loreal colour and was easy to do.
The trim was fine, used haidressing scissors.

I thought with me being a lot more grey it would take ok, but no such luck  |

My hair didn't get cut at all in 2020 and 2021 isn't looking very likely so far either 
I've dyed it, to hide the grey, a couple of times with a home kit.
Most of the time I just tie it up because it really is getting a bit wild.

I got mine cut on the 18th December and as I thought me might go into lockdown I can it cut a fair bit shorter than I normally would so my hair is still ok at the moment. |

I cut mine off myself to be honest. The front isn't to bad but trying trimming the back when you can't see properly is just a nightmare but then as an 80s kid... the nightmare of your own dad putting a bowl over your head to cut round the edges still runs deep so less hair is better than living through that depressing moment lol every story has a happy ending though.. the bowl has long been burnt lol |

I think I'm due a trim now but my hair is ok and just gets longer than i like it during lockdown. It's very curly and i just wash and condition it then leave it to dry naturally. I never use any heat on it so it's in great condition. |

I’m incredibly lucky my stepmum is a hairdresser so she does mine. Flynn gets his done every 2 weeks when things are normal (got to keep that fresh fade lol) he’s struggling at the moment but I like his hair a little longer it goes curly

I have been growing out my fringe for the past few months, & thankfully had the rest of my hair cut just prior to lockdown, so it looks fine. I could manage to go without a cut for a year to be fair, it would just grow out of my current bob into a long bob lol.
I have been experimenting during lockdown though with different partings in my hair, and learning how to curl it well using a flat iron! The experimenting is going well, and I may buy myself a rounded curling tong next!
Just wish I had a night out planned to be able to glam up FOR!! |

One of the positives of lockdown is the upskilling. You can afford to play around, trial and error. You will be a pro when lockdown ceases. |
