Lockdown Lookalike - the awful realisation......

Lockdown can be tough. I am homeschooling and am finding it hard. But after my shower this morning I looked into the mirror and the realisation hit me. I looked like the Welsh King's brother in 'The Last Kingdom'! He is not a pretty man - straggly hair, a bit fat and quite wrinkly. I was really shocked to see him staring back at me!!! Who do you look like since lockdown? Grin

Literally exactly like weird AL, but with way more frizz.

Ha! I've come into my own during lockdown. I always cut my own hair, never wear make up. I look exactly as shit as I always do Grin

Slightly worse than Jen.

I said to my husband “I need my hair cut, I’m starting to look like that guy...” and quick as a flash he said “Neil from the Young Ones” and he was right, that was exactly who I was thinking of. Fanbloodytastic!

@Ironmanrocks I've got a box of dye remover, going to do it at the weekend. And I have an emergency dye in case it all goes horribly wrong Grin

This was me this morning, desperately in need of a deep conditioning treatment for my hair and a good cut.

My Dd (age 4) took a photo of Dd (age 2) cuddled up with me. She said isn’t it a cute photo. It was of Dd, but I looked something like this.

AuntImmortelle · 14/05/2020 20:51

I really need a haircut. 😳

Thanks for the laugh everybody. Now that everyone is zooming all over the place, I always do my face, put in my dental plate and stage my background carefully. However it is still a horror show.

TawnyPippit · 14/05/2020 21:47

Put on a bit of weight and cut and dyed my own hair ...

I stupidly cut my hair, so I resemble Bruce bogtrotter from Matilda.
