Quarantine Haircut Fails – The funniest DIY haircuts being shared on social media, and it’s not just the men…


Life Without the Salon…

Have you been struggling to adapt to life without the salon? Split ends? Roots? General drab-ness? We get it. But a word of caution… if you’re thinking anything along the lines of “It’s just a haircut? How hard can it be?” – then remember, there’s a very good reason we pay people to do our hair!

And if quarantine has taught us one thing – it’s that hair-cutting techniques aren’t quite as easy to do as they look. But then again, desperate times call for desperate measures!


“It’s Just a Hair Cut? How hard can it be?”

Weeks in to lockdown, with hairdressers now but a distant memory, people in isolation have started taking matters in to their own hands, turning kitchens in to makeshift salons and enlisting the ‘help’ of family members…


#Covidhaircut

Hashtags such as #covidhaircut #coronahaircut and #quarantinehair are accompanying the images that are now flooding social media, as self-isolators across the globe share their hilarious DIY disasters. Wonky fringes, mullets, bald patches, colour disasters…we’ve seen it all. Here are a few of our favourite quarantine hair cut fails.
