All over the world, people are sheltering in place due to the spread of the coronavirus. As a result, many people are seeing their true (hair) colours shining through, and for others it’s growing to great lengths.

While many stylists strongly advise against giving ourselves haircuts, some people are just not willing to let nature run its course. Their options are limited: Cut your own hair, have whomever you’re quarantined with cut your hair or, well, that’s pretty much it.

And those are both risky choices in their own ways:

I just gave my husband his first #coronacut aaaaaand now I know why people are projecting divorce rates to skyrocket post-pandemic.

The risky activity has even inspired its own Instagram account, aptly named Corona Cuts, which chronicles and features user-haircuts. The results, as you can probably imagine, are all over the map. Some are good, some are bad, some are worse. But we have to give these people props for taking matters into their own hands, quite literally.

After all, it’s just hair, right?

Below, 18 brave souls don their DIY ’dos:

I am STRUGGLING right now. Not major shit, but ya boy fucked up:

Decided to give myself a #coronacut and though my trimmer could make it through.

INCORRECT! It died 3/4 of the way through. I have to be at work in less than 9 hours. #EssentialWorkers
