At least those tempted to perform a DIY haircut can say they had no option. But what excuse did these footballers have?
As the time of being confined to home drags on, and with no access to the local barbers (or super expensive stylist), some people are reaching for the scissors, with varying levels of success.
Footballers, however, pay good money to have their hair styled, wanting to look their best in front of thousands of fans, and millions on TV.
Of course style is a very personal thing. For one it's the perfect look, for others something to be avoided.
Here's a gallery of some styles over the years in the world's favourite sport. You wonder if they would have been brave enough with the benefit of hindsight.
If you're still tempted to cut your own hair, check out the video below for some tips from a barber.

What is dialysis?
Dialysis is a way of cleaning your blood when your kidneys fail and can no longer do the job.
It gets rid of your body's wastes, extra salt and water, and helps to control your blood pressure. The main cause of kidney failure is diabetes and hypertension.
There are two kinds of dialysis — haemodialysis and peritoneal.
In haemodialysis, blood is pumped out of your body to an artificial kidney machine that filter your blood and returns it to your body by tubes.
In peritoneal dialysis, the inside lining of your own belly acts as a natural filter. Wastes are taken out by means of a cleansing fluid which is washed in and out of your belly in cycles.
It isn’t an option for everyone but if eligible, can be done at home by the patient or caregiver. This, as opposed to home haemodialysis, is covered by insurance in the UAE.
