Since the government has decided to close down restaurants,
gyms, schools, cinemas, and bars, along with other businesses – the residents
of UK are taking matters in their own hands and following a DIY protocol for
their necessities as well as entertainment.
Interestingly, this has also led the ‘home-bound’ citizens
to try their hand at personal grooming as well. With the salons for both – men and women closed around the country, many DIYers are searching for tips and
instructions on how they can cut their own hair.
In fact, figures by Google Trends show an increase in the
search term ‘how to cut own hair’ just a day after the government of the UK
announced a nationwide lockdown. Youtube videos related to DIY haircuts, facials,
and other grooming essentials are also becoming popular in the countries facing
lockdown.
Of course, not being able to reach the salon for a scheduled
haircut may not be a problematic situation – compared to the worldwide pandemic
we are facing. However, it is an interesting trend and indicates how a good
population of the country is trying to cope with the current scenario.
If you are also planning to pick up the scissors, then good luck and stay safe!
