Boris Johnson, famous for his own unruly mop, is set to announce that shaggy Brits can go back to the barbers from July 4.Lockdown has left many of us with grown-out hairstyles or unsightly grey roots, and a few brave souls have even tried cutting their own hair – with sometimes disastrous results.But we’ll get a chance to put all that right from the beginning of next month.
It’s also good news for 33,000 or so stylists and beauticians living in the UK, many of whom are self-employed.When we do get back into the salon, though, we will notice a few changes.That offer of a complementary tea or coffee won’t come, and there won’t be any magazines to flick through while you’re waiting.
