Anyone got used to not getting their haircut?
Discussion
With hairdressers and barber shops now open, though probably with the longest ever queues....! Who has got used to just having their hair grow to new lengths? I used to go to my barber shop once every 4 to 6 weeks for my Number 1 Buzz-Cut.
But right now I feel quite comfortable with nearly 4 months of hair growth... But that might be down to the cold spring weather so far and that extra bit of head insulation.....!
So are there many here rushing to get back for a haircut....?!

Bought some clippers during Lockdown v1. Doubt I'll go to a barbers again.
That's me too. (Mind, I've only got about 6 hairs 
)
Another reason for not going back is that I used the barbers near to the office and I am now working from home permanently. I assume lots of small businesses will be losing trade the same way.
Just had mine done, when did getting a hair cut start to take so long?
Every kid in front wanted a basin cut which took at least 35 mins to do what barbers in the 60's did in no more than 5.
And then we had adults trying to look young, but ending up looking like a cross between Gilbert O Sullivan and an overweight peaky blinder.
They are booked up solid for the next three weeks and because they do not know how long each cut will take their timings are so far out as to be laughable.

Hair has always been long, but now it's the longest it has ever been (imagine hipster Jesus). By having it tied up, it's actually a lot less of a hassle than the mid length style I'd usually have which would need more regular washing, application of products etc.But right now I feel quite comfortable with nearly 4 months of hair growth...

The hair is nearly ponytailable now. It's nearly a year of letting the face fuzz grow, because I hadn't let it grow more than a couple of weeks max before then. Basically I've gone properly into the hairy look in the last year .
