Heavens it's allright for you lot who get your hair cut every few weeks! I get mine done every 3-4 months as it costs quite a lot and I live rural see. I was just going to get mine cut the week we went on voluntary lockdown before they shut compulsorily the next week - it being 3.5 months since last chop but my husband managed to dissuade me, so mine already looks terrible.

I started to redye my hair as I didn't like the grey look so managed to order 4 packs online of a slightly darker version of my usual colour which will have to do. I usually colour it every 3 weeks but now stretching it to four as hardly anyone to see me. However all the people from the village I'm now meeting on my walks will see the tell-tale root stripe!

I'm really going to look an absolute sight and wondering how to cut my layers myself to avert the worse than usual through a hedge backwards look!

I pay 43.00 pounds OAP rates every 5-6 weeks.  The same girl washes/cuts/dries - it takes about an hour of chat and catching up.

This morning I asked DH how long it would take him to keep me tidy and he thinks that by the time we are out of lockdown he should be able weild scissors enough to make me look presentable  ;D

I wouldn't let DH near me with a pair of scissors! He did suggest I cut his hair. I agreed with a evil glint in my eyes! Don't know why he changed his mind! He's got very curly hair, wasted on a man! Hairdressers love it, but it was wasted on him when he was a policeman as he had to have it short. The one good thing about my hair is that it's still blonde at 66. I think there are silver hairs, but they don't show up.

Mine is pricey I'm afraid hence only every 3-4 months.

However I always colour it myself so I took the plunge with the new colour and very pleased with the result and... inspired by you Two Hoots - I took the scissors to my mop!

I always cut the fringe anyway but because the main hair was so grown out with dry ends I even did the layers (it's mid length so quite easy) tricky bit was the back but I somehow took the section of hair , combed it out and snipped the ends of those layers too. Also I did the length by parting it at the back and combing it out. Got my husband to check the back was even and he gave the odd extra snip.

Luckily my hair is thick and wavy so any uneven layers are just part of the look! Pity we don't have a gallery - we could parade our new hairstyles!!!

Very pleased with how it looks and who needs to pay a fortune at Toni and Guy!!

I have regularly cut my husband's hair throughout our time together but lately had been protesting as it's harder to do shorter hair, but he's asked me again  so here we go - thank-you Youtube!

I thought that Toni and Guy went out with the Ark  :-\.  How much is too much to pay for a professional hair cut?

My stylist has done lots of different Courses - she never forces 'product' on me and we have a good old catch up  ::).  Small family saloon ...... now with doors firmly shut  :'(

Well my sons girlfriend has cut his hair, or rather shaved it. Someone said he looks like Sean McGregor from trainspotting!! There are bits of hair everywhere, reminds me of pine needles. Will I still be clearing it away at Christmas!
