Prince Frederik gets a much-needed haircut at the end of strict coronavirus lockdown in Denmark
Prince Frederik has gone viral after he shared a before-and-after photograph of his haircut after visiting the barber shop in Copenhagen following the end of Denmark’s strict lockdown.
The 51-year-old prince showed off his relatable side with two selfies posted on the Danish Palace’s Facebook account of his unkempt hair before the haircut and afterwards.
‘I am probably not the only one who has been to a hairdresser today,’ Prince Frederik captioned the images in Danish.

‘Fortunately, it is now possible for hairdressers and other smaller companies and stores to stay open on top of a long shutdown.’
Prince Frederik added: ‘I want to thank everyone for being so readily prepared and for helping keep the wheels going for a period that requires a lot of us all’.
It wasn’t long before the royal’s post was met with a wave of support online, with more than 51,000 people sharing and commenting on the photos and telling the Prince how ‘relatable’ he is.
‘Looking good, although rugged works too,’ one person posted.
‘But what about the beard?’ another joked.
Denmark has been among the first European countries to put strict lockdown into gradual reverse, after officials re-opened schools and some other businesses last week.
‘It’s important we don’t keep Denmark closed for longer than we need to,’ Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said earlier in April.
‘[But] if we open Denmark too quickly again, we risk infections rising too sharply and then we’ll have to close down again.’

Prince Frederik has been spending the Danish lockdown isolating with his wife Princess Mary and their four children at Fredensborg Palace.
While isolating, the Prince conducted countless meetings over Zoom with charities, as well as leaving his home briefly to welcome a delivery of masks and person protective gear for the country’s frontline medics fighting the COVID-19 pandemic.
Last week, Prince Frederik shared a selfie of himself in front of an aeroplane.
He captioned the image: ‘A big help to all of us landed early this morning from a cloudless sky at Copenhagen Airport.
‘I was invited to attend the landing of the world’s largest cargo aircraft, where the cargo of 1,000,000 face masks and 170,000 protective suits and other protective equipment will be a major help to the home care system in the coming years in the fight against COVID-19.
‘I would like to extend a huge thank you to all involved who have made flights with protective equipment from China possible.’

Princess Mary, who is the patron of the World Health Organisation’s Office for the European region, reminded people that we ‘all have a role to play’ in helping others who might be struggling with isolation at this time.
‘By being more open and tolerant we can each make a difference for the many who stand alone,’ the Princess said in a statement via The Mary Foundation.
‘… Severe loneliness can have serious consequences both mentally and physically. Therefore, as long as it stands, we must make a special effort to help each other out of solitude – even if it is at a distance.’

Last month, the mother-of-four pulled her four children out of boarding school in Switzerland to return home to Denmark, after their home country went into coronavirus lockdown.
The 48-year-old mother and her family released a statement in March, sharing their decision to ‘return home and stand with the Danes at a time that requires a lot of everyone’.
‘In the light of the increased situation in Denmark in connection with the handling of the spread of COVID-19, the Crown Prince family has decided that the family should return home from Switzerland,’ the statement said.
‘The Crown Prince family finds it most natural to return home and stand with the Danes at a time that requires a lot of everyone and where there is a common responsibility to look after each other.’
