How to get a haircut in these days of Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a topic which seems to exercise many people.

We have remote surgery [see link] and robots are getting cheaper, so how about letting your hairdresser work from home in pyjamas while you sit and let the scissor-wielding robot swish round your head?
