Shaggy-haired Welshmen and women can have their wayward locks trimmed professionally from today as the country opens its hairdressers and barbers for the first time in 2021.
The Welsh Government has lifted its rules banning salon haircuts for the first time since before Christmas in a move that will bring relief to millions.
The move comes almost a month before hairdressers in England are allowed to pick up their scissors again from April 12.
It came as ministers were accused of moving the goalposts over Boris Johnson s lockdown roadmap and creating uncertainty.
They were urged by MPs to stick to Boris Johnson s data not dates pledge and publish target figures for when restrictions could be eased.
But the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has said the vaccine’s benefits continue to outweigh its risks and that jabs can keep being administered while it carries out a review into any incidents of blood clots – noting last week that there had only been 30 cases reported among almost five million people jabbed in the European Economic Area. The number of cases of blood clots reported is lower than the hundreds of cases that would be expected among the general population, AstraZeneca’s chief medical officer Ann Taylor said. The pharmaceutical giant said its review had found no evidence of an increased risk of pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or thrombocytopenia, in any defined age group, gender, batch or in any particular country.
