| The state of your post-Covid trim |
| | This weird period will forever be synonymous with three things: the smell of hand-sanitiser, priests with water pistols and really unfortunate DIY haircuts. Half of us have let our manes grow out into unruly, hedge-shaped piles. Others have deigned to take to their own heads with scissors and clippers, producing end results that range from ‘passable’ to ‘upsetting’. The good news is, salons are set to reopen in July (fingers crossed), although no one knows quite what to expect once they do. We chatted to experts about what the future of having your hair cut might look like. |

| All day Like ‘Cinderella’, but highbrow |
| | Fancy a bit of ‘Cendrillon’? No? Well, you might fancy a bit of ‘Cendrillon’ if you weren’t so insufferably basic. What if we told you ‘Cendrillon’ is a nineteenth-century opera based on the story of Cinderella? Oh, now you’re interested. This 2011 Royal Opera House production, directed by Laurent Pelly, doesn’t have mice and pumpkins, but it is full of astonishing music and a terrific turn by Ewe Podleś as the deliciously evil stepmother. |

| Teaching is hard, who knew? |
|
|
|
| Euclidean geometry. Shakespeare’s sonnets. The Boer War. All things you do not understand. The bad news is, if you have kids, you are currently sort-of expected to educate your offspring about this stuff. We asked a psychologist and educational consultant for techniques and tactics pertaining to teaching. The bottom line: don’t panic. In the words of Marge Simpson: you just need to stay one lesson ahead of the students. |
