[Explanation] On June 1, Shanghai entered the stage of fully restoring normal production and living order.
The first thing many people do when they step out of the house is to go straight to the barber shop.
Due to the surge in consumer demand for haircuts, some citizens did not catch up with the first day of resumption of work. Many people chose to wait in line at the barber shop near the community in the early morning of June 2.
On the morning of June 2, the reporter visited a number of barber shops in Shanghai and found that "Mr. Tony" (hairdresser) was very busy.
However, they said they were very happy to see these old customers after the resumption of work.

On June 1st, I immediately came out to open the store. Yesterday there were about fifty or sixty people, and there were usually thirty or forty people.
I'm in a very good mood, very excited, I haven't seen each other (with customers) for three months.
barber
We just opened yesterday, and there were more than 100 customers waiting for a haircut. Usually we have about 40 or 50 customers. Yesterday (the waiting area), there were a lot of people who left. There was no way, it was really busy.
[Explanation] A barber told reporters that for the safety of customers and to avoid cross-infection, customers who need a haircut must wait in line outside the store to call for a number, while customers who need to dye their hair perm must make an appointment one day in advance.

In the past, customers were all in the store (etc.), but now there is no way to do this due to the epidemic, and all customers are queuing outside.
Cut (good) one in and one in, for everyone's safety.

(Dyeing and perming) Now all of them have to be reserved, because there will not be so many guests inside, and they have to sit apart.
If you want to do (hair), you have to tell us a day in advance, and then we will control the time, and then you will come again, because you (present) have a longer time.
[Explanation] Some citizens who were queuing for a haircut told reporters that they came to line up early in the morning. At that time, they were a little anxious when they saw the "full staff" in the store, but they were relieved to hear that they were expected to have their haircut in the morning. .

Citizen Wu Huajian
It has been more than 80 days, nearly 90 days, and it used to be a short-term head.
It came out yesterday. I must go to the company to deal with some things just after I came out. After finishing the treatment, I will quickly get a haircut today, and I will feel refreshed.
Of course, there are also volunteers in our community, free of charge, but relatively speaking, the elderly go a lot, so I don’t want to bother others, so I want to come to the barber shop to get a haircut.
Citizen Aunt Ma
I haven't had a cut for three months, because this hair is long, it's about to stand up, and the image is gone. I just went here to cut it when the door is open.
[Explanation] The reporter learned from Meituan that as early as May 7, the platform has launched a "community haircut" appointment product for hair stylists and residents living in the Shanghai prevention area.
As of May 31, more than 2,800 hair stylists have actively signed up to participate, and nearly 20,000 residents have made an appointment for community hair-cutting services.

During the stay at home, the demand for haircuts has always been strong, especially for men, the elderly and children.
Our platform data shows that on June 1, the number of Shanghai users who made online appointments for haircut services increased by 98 times compared with a week ago, and the users who purchased haircut group purchase services increased by 228 times.
We predict that the number of haircuts during the Dragon Boat Festival is even expected to exceed the "two dragons in February".
