Proof, if proof were needed, that my descent into ‘living in a hedge’ territory was spiraling drastically when a friend let out a startled yelp as I happened to bump into them on a run. ‘Your hair.it’s enormous….and so grey, I didn’t recognise you.’ Excellent; I had gone from presentable Style Editor to Wild Man of Borneo in the space of our most recent lockdown.
Almost every male acquaintance I talk to at the moment bemoans how far he’s fallen in terms of presentability as we shut ourselves away indoors and wait things out. But with the roadmap out of lockdown tentatively laid before us, and the promise of outdoor socialising in some form from April 12th, it’s almost time to get cracking with the ablutions.
