Shoppers panic ahead of new lockdown (29)
tomcatty: Talk of a second lockdown prompted people to make emergency hair and beauty appointments, scramble to book slots for home deliveries as shelves were cleared of toilet roll and customers queued outside shops.
Saturday brought one last hurrah as nationwide restrictions loomed ahead of Boris Johnson’s press conference.
Salons said they were overrun with customers fearful of a repeat of the lockdown measures introduced in March that led to DIY hairstyles or simply succumbing to overgrown roots.
While in a case of panic buying deja vu, toilet rolls were grabbed from shelves as people were seen queuing outside stores and home delivery slots were fully booked by midday.
Shai Greenberg, co-founder of Gielly Green boutique salon in Marylebone, said he has seen a surge of bookings in recent days.
"We've been very busy today and are fully booked tomorrow, Monday and Tuesday," he told The Telegraph. "We've opened every single slot up and are completely booked up.
"It’s devastating news about another lockdown, we hardly managed to cope with the first lockdown and I fear it will be a death penalty for the industry in many ways.”
Boo Banner-Eve, a colourist at the Shoreditch branch of Taylor Taylor London, said she had originally had three clients booked for Sunday but this had doubled by Saturday afternoon.
“In the last couple of hours, we’re now at almost full capacity for Sunday.

The UK banned handguns in 1997, but citizens are still able to own and shoot some shotguns and rifles with a license. Shotguns and rifles may be licensed by applying for a certificate through the local police force, according to the government's guide on gun-licensing law.WE JUST DON'T USE GUNS TO KILL EACH OTHER OR EACH OTHERS CHILDREN IN SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!
The law is different in NI.

It was after the Dunblane shootings in 1996 that the government banned all handguns in the uk, except .22 target pistols.The law is different in NI.
