Alan Halsall looks 'petrified' as his girlfriend Tisha Merry cuts his hair in lockdown

Many of us will relate as Coronation Street star Alan Halsall braved a home cut in lockdown.

Alan, who plays Tyrone Dobbs in Corrie, entrusted the scissors to his girlfriend Tisha Merry while staying at home.

He looked worried in a photo shared on his Instagram as she prepared to trim her man's hair, asking his followers to 'wish me luck' as he sat in the chair.

And Alan joked that it was something he thought he'd never say before having two hair transplants.

He wrote: "Four years ago I had my first hair transplant.

"Today it’s being cut by @missdrewmerry93 because it’s too long!!"

"Oh no no dont do it mate," warned one follower.

"Brave man," said another.

"Your face!! Hope it goes well ... I’m a barber and haven’t done a haircut for seven weeks!! Good luck xx" another told him.

"Aw you look petrified," said another.

But Alan, 37, need not have worried because Tisha, 26, did a great job.

"Not bad," he complimented her afterwards, sharing an 'after' photo on his Instagram Stories.

"Looks great," praised one follower.

"Mate she's done a great job," he told another.

Last year the soap star defended his decision to undergo a second hair transplant operation, admitting the procedure is "nothing to be ashamed of."

He underwent the operation in March at the Farjo Hair Institute in Manchester.

Sharing a photo of Alan's treatment on their Instagram page, the Farjo clinic said they were thrilled to "help Alan get his confidence back".

Alan is staying at home during the coronavirus pandemic with Tisha Merry, who played Steph Britton in Corrie, and his daughter Sienna.

The couple still managed to celebrate their first anniversary in style during the lockdown and dressed up for a romantic dinner at home.
