Well if hairdressers and barbers remain shut - we will all end up in the above. I can't even buy scissors to try and attempt mine.

Do you have a lot of body hair?

[jennyjoan]

no I'm a ladee,

[MartinMillar]

Just tie it back in a head scarf or some clips

One of the small benefits of being on chemotherapy is inhibited hair growth. I currently need to shave only about once per week (and, even then, it only takes a minute or two because there's hardly any stubble) and what little hair I had up top is gradually falling out anyway. So the barber probably won't be seeing me rushing through his door once all this isolation stuff is over ;-)

many years ago I cut my mother's hair - she asked me for a Mia Farrow cut - afterwards - she never spoke to me for a very long time and said "you never left me like an oul woman but you left me like an oul lad". She wore a scarf too for weeks. boy was she mad.

i'll end up like cousin it at this rate x

ah, perhaps she was remembering Mia Farrow before Rosemary's Baby, when she had it cut?

Mia's lovely there - no - mother wanted the elf look which I gave her quite innocently but I may have cut it too short LOL - she never asked me again

[mushroom25]

- Mia Farrow doesn't have her hair cut like this!
- she would if she had it cut here......

Been cutting my own for the last 20 years.
I grade it, then shave it down to the wood every 3/4 days.

[jennyjoan]

Chill - hope you dont look like Boris who very obviously cuts his own too.

Gave my hair a wee trim the other day. Nothing much, just took the ends off. I used to cut my late hubby's hair all the time as he refused to go to a barber (tight barsteward).

[Old_Geezer]

Oh you don't need chemo for that Beun. In fact I've not had chemo and I only need to shave less than once in a lifetime.

I meant to get an hair cut early last month it needed doing then... I didn't bother grrr... I now have a mop and mullet the likes I haven't adorned since the late eighties when it was fashionable, I live alone so no assist when I lose the plot with a pair of scissors and razor.

Clippers are the answer, ladies the longest setting all over about 38 -40 mms gives a passable pixie cut, a couple of months if you dye and you will be back to natural too. Loving mine.
Gents, shorter setting. Easy ...

Hair dressers. Sorry...
