I badly need a haircut. What do I do??????

[slowmotion]

Maybe there's a temporary glimmer of hope...….

My better half gave me a lock-down hair cut. It's the shortest it's been since I was a kid when my dad used to take me to an Italian ex-POW for a crew-cut. It'll take a while to grow back, but I quite like the short look. Might save me pounds, too, in the long run, as I normally go to the barber every three weeks.

To be honest, with a reasonable set of trimmers, what can possibly go wrong....

You could try the Flymo.

Everyone is the same at the moment. I'm thinking about wielding the scissors soon myself to attempt a slight tidy. I was chatting to an elderly lady along the road yesterday. Her hair is getting really long and I was joking she would need to get her husband (used to work on a farm) to look out the sheep shears!

My bonce is kept highly polished, Pam cuts the front of her hair and I trim the back for her, I did have an oops moment yesterday when cutting it but managed to blend it in fine. Just have a couple of drinks and let one of the females or all of them have a go at it.

Sorry. I happen to have certain standards, even in times of crisis. Chemicals will never touch the surface of The Sacred Temple Of DoomThat Is My Body.

Fixed that for you.

Oh and the answer is to scrunch it up into a man bun.

Yikes! I don't need one that badly. Next thing you'll be suggesting I get an electric scooter.

What should I do?

Change your mindset and count yourself lucky for having hair.

Alt get some clippers on line, stick on the grade 8 25mm attachment and go over the whole lot - there is no skill involved, the Combe attachment does all that for you

Mrs Slick did mine a couple of weeks ago, it wasn't brilliant but it did the job fine and as I've always said, there's only a week between a good cut and a bad one. Talk someone in your household to do it for you and learn to live with whatever the result is.

You just inspired me. No.8 sounds like something a novice could attempt.
Thank you.

Always cut my own with clippers, its easy, pick your length attachment, go over it all evenly if your not bothered about anything fancy, I did mine to no2 about six weeks ago, done the sides and back to no2 a few times since then. its easier same length all over, be brave.

I had grade 0 a few weeks ago but already it's grown a lot. Covid cut is better than bush head.

I once used cow clippers driven by compressed air on a fellow worker who wanted to save money. He had to have an emergency trip to a barber on his next day off.

but seriously, your hair will grow at a rate of half an inch per month. Hairdressers will be allowed to reopen in July ( current thinking says ). So ( I think ) another inch and a half growth is better than having to start from scratch again.

You could grow a ponytail and enter a Francis Rossi lookalike competition.
