Alexa Chung Reacts to her Past Hairstyles - Lockdown Locks

  • It's time to let our locks down whilst in lockdown, and I know a whole lot of people are learning how to cut their own hair at home. So I thought I would Zoom call my friend and faithful hair stylist @George Northwood for a consultation, which happens to include a review of some of my past haircuts.
    Be sure you click at the end of the video to see my actual self-hair-cut-off-type-thing on George's channel. You can follow George on Instagram here:

    As a hairdresser I'm so taken with George, think he's fabulous. Many male hair stylists can have rather big ego's, especially those frequented by A listers & the so called 'in crowd" for their hair.
    George comes across as being relaxed, self-confident, an excellent hairdresser & just a genuine bloke.
    Hasn't got the attitude of he's Mr Cool, the greatest hairstist around & does so & so's hair.

      Personally I always bring in a photo (or few!) because it helps my hairdresser and I figure out what I like about the pic, which we then try to create with my hair. I find this really helps with the "hairdresser" vs "normal people" language differences too.
