YES!! only beauty for now as she announced on FB that her books were opening from 4th July. I don’t check FB all the time so was late to the party and have got 7th July for shellac nails and an eye special which is a lash tint, brow wax and tint and I can’t bloody wait!

RiftGibbon · 05/06/2020 09:23

No. I colour my hair myself. I can trim it if needed. My eyebrows need doing but not important in the whole scheme of things.
In not that fussed about my appearance, to be honest. None of our local salons are open yet anyway.

TomNook · 05/06/2020 09:25

Lol. Thanks for your contribution though 🤔.

Eyebrows and lashes are what I’ve missed @Zoflorabore

Yup, hair for mid July. Woo wooooo!!

SandrasAnnoyingFriend · 05/06/2020 09:26

Tentative Botox appointment, she's booked out from 4th July, earliest I could get was the 21st

Not yet as the lady I go to isn't taking appointments until the date is definite, or at least more definite than it is now.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 05/06/2020 10:31

So jealous. I'm in Scotland and my hairdresser sent out an email saying it looks like it will be August until they're allowed to open.

TomNook · 05/06/2020 10:57

oh god, its going to be lovely

Booked in cut and colour for the latter part of July. Usually would hate the thought of spending so long sitting in a salon but am really looking forward to the whole experience!

nitgel · 05/06/2020 11:10

i've been growing out my fringe for months and months and now it's finally long enough for a one length, but my hairdresser hasn't mentioned any opening times yet. Have emailed.

HunterHearstHelmsley · 05/06/2020 11:13

Eyebrow lamination and hair cut/colour booked for 6th July. I cannot wait.

whatonearthmother · 05/06/2020 11:19

Nail appointment booked!

Swiftier · 05/06/2020 12:13

Booked a hair appointment for early July, can’t wait. It just needs a trim really but it’s got to the point it feels dry on the ends and I know it’ll feel a lot better when it’s done!
I’ve also booked in my annual microblading top up Grin

livingmyslothlife · 05/06/2020 12:16

NI and not opened here yet. My whiskers are longer than the cats. I'd been booked in for eyebrows and dermaplaining the day after lockdown 🥴. I

MiddlesexGirl · 05/06/2020 13:25

No - was a DIYer before BC and so no urgent need. But I am thinking about eyebrows. They could be more 'useful' but I'd need a bit of advice about how!

What I am praying for though, is that leisure centres open at the same time. I am desperately in need of evening/indoor/bad weather exercise.

allfalldown47 · 05/06/2020 13:30

I don't care about my hair, I've got a blunt, thick fringe which I can trim myself and the rest just gets shoved up into a messy bun/ponytail!
But my nails!! I so miss having gel nails, I normally have them done at a large Superdrug but I haven't heard anything about them reopening Sad

Terralee · 05/06/2020 13:36

I made an appointment online for my hairdresser for highlights & a trim in July... hope it happens

Terralee · 05/06/2020 13:36

My hair is quite long now so I don't want hardly anything off

Tootletum · 05/06/2020 13:40

You flipping bet

Oblomov20 · 05/06/2020 13:41

No. No one is taking appointments yet.

beakyboo10 · 05/06/2020 14:40

Cut and colour booked for mid July, kids are also booked in for a hair cut in July as I am not brave enough to attempt a moving target.

Not able to book brows yet as they are not taking bookings. I got a voucher for £100 worth of beauty treatments for Christmas which expired in June so I'm hoping they still let me use it as I want a facial.

XingMing · 05/06/2020 14:47

My hairdresser is contacting customers whose booked appointments were cancelled due to lockdown in order of their dates. Seems to be a very fair approach to resuming business. I hope my beautician does the same, because I lost both appointments during the first week of April.

CremeEggThief · 05/06/2020 14:56

I've booked waxing, manicure and pedicure appointments online for the 9th and 10th July.🤞

Jemimatheragdoll · 05/06/2020 18:43

Yup, hair appointment on 6th - cut and colour. I've been trimming my own fringe but decided not to diy colour as wanted to see how much grey I have which it turns out, is quite a lot! I think I'll start to 'embrace the grey' but will do it gradually

I'm desperate for a pedicure too but don't know when that will be as my beautician is too terrified of catching covid19 to even think about opening atm.

Cheesypea · 05/06/2020 18:48

Im growing my hair and cutting it at the back myself. Im home working till at least september so it can wait.
