While people have been stuck indoors for months during lockdown, many have been missing their trips to the hairdresser and beauty parlour.

Some have been so desperate to achieve their perfect look during quarantine that they have had a go themselves.  

Collated by Shareably social media users from around the world have shared their  failed attempts at getting the perfect lockdown look. 

The pictures include one woman who burned her top lip while trying to wax at home, several men left with very patchy haircuts and women who realised that an acrylic manicure is best left to the professionals. 

Here, FEMAIL reveals the hilarious examples of people who should have waited for professionals before undergoing their treatment.
