Is a haircut the key to improving men’s mental health?

Healthy-ish

Australian men are experiencing something of a mental health crisis - especially since the onset of COVID-19, with alarming new research suggesting that now more than ever before Aussie men are suffering in silence, with no-one to talk to. Movember aims to combat this through a new initiative, called Real Barber, Real Talk. Clinical psychologist and Movember spokesperson Dr Zac Seidler explains why getting a haircut - and having a chat - might be more powerful than it sounds. You can find out more about Movember and the work they do for men’s mental health here, and more about the Real Barber, Real Talk initiative here.
