‘I brush my hair!’: Boris Johnson apologizes for his hair

Boris Johnson apologized today for his haircut and insisted that he comb it after he was accused of being too scruffy to represent the country.

Speaking today on a trip to wet and windy Greater Manchester, the prime minister, whose hair was still unbrushed, told reporters that he “does the best he can” with his blonde mane.

Johnson confronted a reporter whose mother had asked him to plead with the prime minister to “brush his hair” because he “represents the country.”

“Your hair is always everywhere and she wants to know why,” the reporter said in the interview with Johnson while visiting an Openzone training center in Bolton.

A Mr Johnson, laughing, replied: ‘I can tell you that I brush my hair, I have one in my office, please wish your mother my best wishes for Christmas and excuse me for my hair. I’m doing the best I can with that. ‘

Yesterday British haircut stylists said that her ‘pudding bowl’ haircut is the ‘crime’ of 2020 fashion and it looks like her fiancee Carrie could have done it herself with kitchen scissors or modeling on her dog rescue Dilyn.

Aides to the prime minister admitted to MailOnline that Johnson’s locks have gotten out of hand as he focuses on the rise in coronavirus cases and difficult Brexit negotiations with the EU.

Johnson’s last short haircut was on November 2, but a week ago he modeled a midway house cut rated “unbelievably bad.” His bangs were so direct when he visited Brussels for crucial Brexit talks with Ursula von der Leyen last week that some wondered if he had become so desperate for a cut that Carrie Symonds may have done it herself in her Downing Street flat.

December 9: Stylists have spoken out against Boris’s latest pudding bowl cut saying it is a fashion crime that cannot have been committed by a professional hairdresser.

And on Wednesday he looked so scruffy and cruel that PMQ watchers suggested he resembled his Jack Russell-cross Dilyn, featured on the front of his official Christmas card this year, with a wag that reads, ‘Even the dog has a Boris’ haircut.

Ricky Walters, founder of London’s Salon64, said his shabby hairstyle sums up the terrible 12 months the UK has had while battling the coronavirus pandemic. He said: ‘2020 has been a difficult year for all of us and Boris Johnson’s haircut really sums it up. Whether it is cut with a bowl of pudding, a blunt kitchen scissors, or a knife and fork, it is certainly a cause for concern. “

He added: ‘My guess is that no hairdresser would actually commit such a crime and Boris has had a little attempt between Brexit meetings and fighting COVID.’

Sources close to Johnson dismissed the claims of DIY haircuts as “fake” and “shit.”

December 15: Boris Johnson appeared on a Loneliness Zoom call Tuesday as some pranksters pondered whether the Level 3 rules meant that Carrie had cut her hair. Experts say she has tousled her hair to hide the straight lines left by the latest ‘bowl cut’ cut

Some less kind commenters suggested that Boris’s hair looks more and more in the style of rescue dog Dilyn

Some have directly appealed to Carrie to ‘comb her fucking hair’ before PMQ next time

Celebrity stylist James Johnson said: ‘The straight, blunt edges that are disconnected make the cut look like a work at home, rather than a salon cut. While I sympathize with the distribution of a vaccine, it would be great to see Boris take time in the morning to comb his hair. ‘

Critics have suggested that if Boris’s “crazy hair” reflects his mood, he might have a better chance of solving both if he went to the salon for the first time since early November.

Today, Johnson tweeted a video of him and Carrie together on a Zoom call as they endorsed a campaign to lift the spirits of people who feel lonely this Christmas.

Rather than focus on charity work, one Twitter user said: ‘WTF is going off with your hair? Boris yours is ridiculous. ‘ A PMQ viewer said yesterday: ‘This is an apocalyptic bad hair day from Boris tbf’ because his hair was ‘all over the place’. Another messaged Carrie directly, begging her to buy him a comb for Christmas.

Boris Johnson’s hair yesterday (left) was already much longer than on November 2, when Boris had his last short haircut just before the second national lockdown.

Social networks are flooded with comments, professional or otherwise, about the poor condition of Boris’s barnet

Others have joked that he has been sticking so hard recently that it seems Johnson had “blown his hair with a balloon.”

Experts seem to be sure that the prime minister’s haircuts have been done at home.

Barbers at Pall Mall in London cut Johnson’s hair when he was Mayor of London.

The company’s founder and CEO, Mr. Marshall, said last month that the “prime minister’s haircut is a cross between the short back and sides with kitchen scissors from the 1920s and the punkster from the 80s.” .

He added: ‘Boris must have done it himself or maybe he had some help from Carrie or even the dog. Despite all his cuts over the years, this one feels more like homemade ax work to me. ‘
