    Noticeably perfect hair among the presenters on RTE and TV3. No dark or grey roots, no frizz or badly needed hair cuts. Are we supposed to believe they all do their own hair or could the no hairdresser rule not apply to them?

    I noticed exact same thing. Miriam hair perfect + not a outgrown root in sight!

    I know rte have own make up artist so maybe have own hairdresser aswell who is classed as an essential work as working in 'journalism'

    Richard Chambers hair is growing longer anyhow with a large fist of brly cream applied to the top
    Looks well actually
    Others are shaving it,also looking well,it could be their partners doing it
    Most women I know can do their own hair dye

    I got my hair cut on the 14th March and it's still very short/neat. It's only been 6 weeks, not 6 months.

    I read that that the makeup artists and hairdressers left them with makeup and hair products.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    RTE has its own hairdressers and make up artists.

    Arrests need to be made.

    I can't see miriam doing her own roots. I could be wrong though.

    They shouldn't be working though?

    If RTÉ are allowed have hairdressers (and it very much looks like they are going by Miriam and Claire Byrne) then why are all hairdressers not allowed to open or at least do home visits? Social distancing should be the same for everyone!

    Politicians also seem to be very handy hairdressers on the side.

    Yes there is a small fee that stand out as not having been done. But the majority seem to be using a hairdresser.

    Well it looked like the staff coiffure hadn't made it out of D4. Ciaran Mullooly, RTE News Midlands Correspondent reporting the other night had a mop on him like William Hickey in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.

    Neighbour is a hairdresser who has been laid off due to covid19. Has been told she no longer qualifies for a mortgage that she had been approved for due to this. It is grossly unfair for TV Presenters to be able to use a service that is deemed unsafe for the majority. Sets a really bad example to everyone re social distancing too.

    Sharon Ni Bheolan definitely hasn't been near a hair dresser lately.

    Maybe the hair dressers are doing zoom calls and giving tips. Maybe Miriam is willing to take it on herself, or one of her kids, surely one of them is a hairdresser.

    My partner dyed her hair last week, and it looks grand. It is down past the shoulders too, so it doesn't look like she's in need of a cut.

    I've quite short hair, so I currently look like a shag pile rug. Moral of the story, some look good, some look overgrown.

    tbh if they are dumb enough to let someone do their hair right now they are dumb enough to let other things happen and will be paying for it.
