Haircuts after lockdown

Hairdressers, funeral directors and sex workers

We bring together three hairdressers from around the world to talk about how their lives have changed because of the pandemic. Marcel in Jerusalem and Marion in Berlin can cut their clients' hair again - but with restrictions. Tamsyn in Johannesburg has only been allowed to open her salon to sell hair products so far. So what is the future of cutting hair while the world is dealing with Covid-19? And if you're still in lockdown, without access to a hairdresser - do the professionals have any tips?

Also, what is it like to be a funeral director in these times? You'll hear Louise and Britanny talk about their work in the UK and California with those who've died from Covid-19 - and their families.

And three sex workers talk to each other about their lives in Nigeria, Canada and the Netherlands. What are the implications of physical distancing for them and their clients?
