As many of us feel the pressure of extended quarantine, Poppy is right there with us, experiencing the ups and downs of self-isolation. In these surreal times, it’s become clear that we’re all just a few days away from making some questionable decisions—like deciding to cut our own hair. The singer recently posted a comical video on Instagram, detailing her (rather tipsy) decision to take matters into her own hands and give herself a haircut, a situation that’s all too relatable.
“Haircuts and libations. Quarantine chronicles,” Poppy captions her video. It seems that many of us have turned to the scissors while stuck at home. With boredom creeping in, it appears the urge for impulsive bangs is becoming a trend.
“This is my public service announcement,” she begins, “I’m wandering around my house, getting ready to vacuum and take a shower while munching on pretzels.” Honestly, I could relate—84% of my day seems to be spent snacking on pretzels too.
Poppy continues, “I don’t know about you all, but I’ve turned drinking into a competitive sport during this quarantine.” She humorously explains her thought process, “Last night, I had a brilliant idea—why not cut my hair myself? Why have I been paying people all this time?” Well, it turns out she quickly learned why she’s been relying on professionals.
With a playful flick of her beanie, she reveals her less-than-stellar haircut. “Am I giving off vibes like some famous actresses? Maybe I’ll try to fix it later. What do you think?” Part of me wants to yell, “Don’t touch the clippers!” but another part is curious to see the outcome.
This isn’t the first time Poppy has shared her quarantine experiences. She’s been keeping fit with a hefty weight on her back and attempting to maintain some semblance of a routine with her daughter, Daisy. And when all else fails, she’s been indulging in a bit of rage-baking.
Wrapping up her video, Poppy leaves us with a bit of wisdom we could all use: “Stay safe, stay home! Go ahead and cut your own hair, why not?” Honestly, Poppy, we could use more of your entertaining company as we navigate this time of social isolation.
