Spring Equinox - time for a haircut!

Today is the Spring Equinox, so to celebrate I decided to have a walk to my barber for a haircut as I thought it was best I have one prior to doing the full on Social Distancing thing next week.

It's about 1.5 miles, but it was a nice sunny morning. When I got there she told me that from next week she'd only be opening in the morning and would be doing home visits in the afternoons as quite a few of her customers would be social distancing.So I said to just give me a trim and I'd ring her to come around next time I wanted a cut - and then I walked home! Well done her for working out how to continue to make a living in these difficult times if you are self employed.

It's a dilemma. Being a barber/hair stylist does not lend itself to social distancing. My wife is worrying about having her hairdresser come to the house. As she has so many clients, it's a bit of a risk. For my part, I have resolved to revert to my mid 70s hairstyle, complete with ponytail - I reckon I could be close in 10 weeks time!!!

I'd love to join you in a 70s hairstyle, I am however, how shall we say, a bit follicly challenged! 😢, not excessively so, but not got enough to support a 70s style!

Oh, so am I, but the sides and back are still ok and I’ve a bit more than a bobby charlton comb over on top

Ha! right now I'm patting myself on the back for getting quite the short pixie cut back in November. Right now I'm thanking my hair for growing slowly! I wonder what I will look like when I eventually see my loved ones and my colleagues again :D I wonder what we will all look like really... Maybe like Tom Hanks in castaway

I agree with you, because spring is a time for change, and it is worth starting with your hair, because most of you have probably been walking with your old hairstyle for several years. Aren't you tired of this?

I advise you to contact captureyourbeauty.me/ which will definitely help you choose a wonderful hairstyle that can brighten up your gray days and increase the interest of others in you.
