Now that both pubs and hairdressers are reopening in the UK, Heineken is introducing Heineken Haircuts and hosting them in pub gardens so that people don't have to choose where they would like to go first. The mobile hairdressing units situated in London, Manchester and Birmingham help to treat adults to a pint and a fresh cut courtesy of celebrity hairstylists. People are invited to share their experiences with the tag #ShearGenius tag in celebration of lockdown lifting in the country.
To help people experience some of the aspects of personal care and grooming that they may have missed during the lockdown, brands are focusing on offering services like free haircuts to safely draw people outside of their homes.
