Couldn’t help noticing that Boris has had a hair cut. Is this a New Year’s Resolution to try and win confidence or did Carrie take a pair of scissors in the night and he is going to be like Samson?

Never mind his hair I can’t bear to see him do that silly elbow bump in vaccination centres. It irritates this grumpy old lady

Yes, that annoys me far more than his hair

He looked like an utter buffoon in the clip I saw of him in the vaccination centre 2 days ago. The nurse had a needle and syringe in his hand and was in the process of drawing up a vaccine. BJ didn’t have the common sense or manners to let him finish and thrust his elbow in his face. I’m longing for the day when someone refuses to reciprocate in front of the cameras and tells him where to put his elbow.

I've always thought he would look better with a short cut, and a bit of a beard.

It was painful to do, but I've searched for images of Johnson. He can manage perfectly reasonable looking hair when it suits him

Really? ???

And I saw Kier Starmer doing it too. Really ridiculous

Over the years we have all concluded here that no tailor or barber could ever make anything of Boris; he has an undressable shape and the wildest hair, not helped by his habit of ruffling it, to hide the increasing bald patch. What a challenge for a makeover! I have a cousin whose hair looks a disaster whatever is done to it. He complains that it grows in all directions on his head and consequently won't lie down. He has a double crown, a cowlick, and has just about given up. His hair is trimmed often and washed daily but looks unbelievably messy. He is in sympathy with Boris - on that matter at least.

he had had it cut but it still looked a mess and he was still short, I agree

BlueBelle Wed 05-Jan-22 18:08:50

Just seen him in parliament on tv now and he looks just the same all over the shop albeit very slightly shorter
It’s not the hairs fault all he needs is a proper cut any good hairdresser could get that into shape

Sparklefizz Wed 05-Jan-22 17:34:10

I thought his shorter hair made him look younger. confused

Calistemon Wed 05-Jan-22 17:32:08

You think I'm joking, don't you ?

Poor Boris, it just grows oddly. He needs to have it cut much shorter still.
His siblings have nice hair.

Reminds me of Mr Cheesestring’s hair. Look familiar ??

Yes, it looks like mine first thing in the morning!

Actually, no, mine's more like this:
My face is cleaner though.

I very much dislike what he looks like particularly when he represents us at international conferences etc. Mind you, what comes out of his mouth often matches his unkempt appearance.

MaizieD Wed 05-Jan-22 17:10:43

He didn't look any different from usual at PMQs today. The usual mess...

Coastpath Wed 05-Jan-22 17:04:52

Like a goat chewed it - Brilliant!!

GrannyGravy13 Wed 05-Jan-22 15:23:32

I have got to the point whereby I really do not give a flying pig what he looks like, I just want a Government and PM that I can trust and that’s not looking as if it will happen anytime soon.

Germanshepherdsmum Wed 05-Jan-22 15:16:51

That’s probably the photo he took to the barbers to show what he wanted.

It looks like a goat’s chewed it as my mum would have said. How does anyone have a haircut and still look just as bad as before?

Calistemon Wed 05-Jan-22 15:11:52

It just grows oddly that's why it looks as if it's been cut with a knife and fork.

MayBeMaw Wed 05-Jan-22 15:07:27

Hillary Clinton (I think) once said she could manipulate her press coverage simply by changing her hairstyle.
Does Boris’s hair actually matter to anybody except himself?

westendgirl Wed 05-Jan-22 15:05:19

Now it's a shorter mess.

jaylucy Wed 05-Jan-22 12:33:06

I thought that he had had a go himself because it looks like someone has just hacked at it!
I think that because his hair is fine, whatever is done to it, unless he uses hair products on it, it will always look a mess!
Anyone else noticed how thin his hair now is on top ?
