REBELLIOUS wine brand 19 Crimes has teamed up with barber Dean Gleeson to offer free Halloween haircuts, including head, chest or back.

A barbershop is offering a hair-raising way to impress this Halloween – by sculpting body hair into frightening works of art.

Images have been released to show what styles you could go for, from a skull on the back of the head to spider webs or a mummy in your chest or back hair.

No design will be off limits, providing it fits the theme at the ‘Hairwolves’ service.

Rebellious wine brand 19 Crimes teamed up with barber Dean Gleeson at Ruffians Barbershop in Shoreditch to offer the one-off service, free of charge on 31st October.

The service was created to launch the brand’s limited edition Halloween glow in the dark labelled bottles, which has replaced imagery of its convicts to a mummy, skeleton and the grim reaper.

Speaking in partnership with the wine brand, professional hair artist Dean said: “It’s going to be a fun day of creating some seriously spooky Halloween haircuts.

“Absolutely nothing is off limits, and we want to give those daring enough a haircut to be remembered for on Halloween.

“You can come in and make your suggestion – and if we can physically do it with the type of hair you’ve got on offer, we’ll do it for you.”

Dean estimates he could get through up to 20 trims on October 31st – but possibly more if the designs are simple, with basic stencil designs like a cobweb taking less than five minutes.

However, if you’re looking for something more intricate, it could take 30 to 60 minutes.

One consideration for anyone thinking about a spooky hair sculpt is the density of hair, particularly on the back or chest, to ensure it is thick enough to support the detail required for the design.

It follows research which revealed the hairdos that 2,000 Brits consider as the biggest hair horrors – with the ‘rat tail’ coming out on top.

Meanwhile, the bowl cut, ‘friar tuck’ and mullet were also disliked by respondents.

However, 32 per cent admit they’ve had a hair howler of their own – but 35 per cent would still be open to risking it again if they could get a cut for free.

It also emerged the most iconic Halloween hairstyles were Morticia Adam’s pin straight hair, the Joker’s green do, and the Bride of Frankenstein beehive.

Chantal McDowell, from 19 Crimes added: “We wanted to find a fun and unconventional way to bring to life the limited-edition Halloween labels for consumers this Halloween.

“We’re using Dean’s expert talents with a trimmer to create some seriously hair-raising haircuts this Halloween.”

Taking to the popular Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips page on Facebook, one anonymous member sought help after their window frames were covered in mould spots all over the house.

The dampness, they cried in the post, has also since caused the cream paint to start peeling off, leaving an unsightly mess.

”What can I do to get rid of the mould for good?

”We’ve tried before (hence the paint being cleaned off and the old cream paint underneath showing through) but it’s come back worse.

”Any help is much appreciated as this problem is really getting us down.”

Luckily for the social media user, the post was soon inundated with responses from fellow cleaning enthusiasts and fans of the cleanfluencer.

There were dozens of suggestions, ranging from investing in a dehumidifier to snapping up different products from the high street.

However, one of the most popular tips was using Mould & Mildew Blaster, which you can bag for just £1.39.

One person shared a snap of the spray, writing: ”This stuff from B&M is brilliant.”

Another was also raving over the affordable bargain, instructing how to use it for best results.

”Clean with sugar soap spray then apply Astonish mould and mildew spray using a washing up sponge then wipe the sponge over the mould and watch it disappear before your eyes.”

Also available at Sainsbury’s and other supermarkets for around £1.50, this cold weather essential ”removes tough stains without the need for scrubbing, whilst regular use helps prevent return”.

According to the description online, cleaning fanatics can use the versatile spray all over their homes too –  try it on walls, uPVC window frames, plastic shower curtains, bathroom tiles, grout, silicone sealant, concrete, sinks and plugholes.

With more than a hundred reviews online, it comes as no wonder that so many people have been praising the budget-friendly cleaning product.

One Sainsbury’s customer gave it the maximum of five stars and described it as ”marvellous stuff”.

”This stuff is the only product I’ve found to keep bathrooms mould- free (particularly around the shower – brilliant stuff).”

Another chimed in, commenting: ”Astonish mould and mildew remover if fab!

”It acts fast, removing any and all mould or mildew, leaving the surfaces looking as good as new. This all happens with only a couple of sprays, meaning the bottle lasts ages.”

Someone else agreed, dubbing the spray ”excellent” for dealing with mould.

”Very good product and worked effectively. Quick and easy to use.”

IT’S one of the biggest pre-Christmas sales, with loads of parents stocking up on bargain presents for their kids.

“It has been confirmed that the up to 50% off Sainsburys Toy Sale will start Wednesday 23rd October,” a post on the Bag a Weekly Bargain Facebook group read.

The sale, which is just in stores and not online, is expected to last a week.

Brands included in the sale have previously included Marvel, Disney, Peppa Pig, Bluey and Barbie.

It’s also a good idea to check your local store’s opening times, as previous years have seen lengthy queues of shoppers desperate to nab a good deal.

And one eager shopper revealed they’d be at their nearest Sainsbury’s for when the doors open.

“The best sale honestly! I’ll be queuing early morning,” one commented on the Money Saving Central post announcing the sale date.

“It’s a good one for all ages,” another pointed out.

“Ooooh might have to get the bus down and have a look!” a third wrote.

“Can’t wait,” someone else excitedly said.

As another added: “Here we come!”

“Awww thanks,” someone else praised.

“It will save a wasted visit!”

As an added bonus, shoppers can both collect and redeem Nectar points on any purchases made in the toy sale.

“One of the great benefits of shopping at Sainsbury’s is the ability to collect and redeem Nectar points,” the Coupon Queen wrote in a post on her website.

“These points can indeed be used during the Sainsburys toy sale, allowing you to save even more on your purchases.

“So, not only can you find great deals on toys, but you can also use your Nectar points to get additional discounts.”

She also shared some important suggestions ahead of the sale, including asking for a gift receipt if you’re buying toys as presents for other people.

It’s also a good idea to check the return deadlines for any toys before purchasing them.

And remember to check whether or not the toys need batteries to work – and if they’re included.

KSI and Tommy Fury could be heading for a huge rematch with talks to take place between the two camps.

Fury became the first to hand YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI defeat in the ring after his controversial points victory in October.

The 2019 Love Island star – who is in the midst of a break up with Molly-Mae Hague – has since had hand surgery which sidelined him.

But Fury is back training and wants to make a comeback by January – with KSI’s manager and Misfits Boxing boss Mams Taylor is ready for talks.

Taylor told SunSport: “I think Tommy would do really well on the Misfits roster. And I know our teams are in touch with their team.

“So watch this space. Let’s see what happens.”

Fury, 25, won a disputed six-round decision over KSI, 31, fuelling demand for a second bout.

And Taylor added: “And as far as KSI and Tommy, I think when the time is right, that rematch definitely should happen.

“Till this day people are still very divided about that result.” 

A rematch could follow as quickly as 2025 but Fury is also linked with another fight against Jake Paul, 27, who beat by split-decision last year too.

KSI meanwhile has also not fought since his first loss having had a similar painful hand problem.

It meant he is unable to fight on Misfits Boxing’s “super card” in Qatar on November 28.

British boxing legend and former world champion Amir Khan, 37, was a rumoured opponent but KSI was forced out with injury.

Taylor said: “JJ’s spent a lot of time nursing that hand injury taking time to make sure that he’s 100 per cent and doesn’t have to fight with a hand injury when he faces an opponent of that kind of calibre. 

“It’s not something that you want to take lightly so we spoke to the doctors and kind of got a gage of when he can be ready and in optimum shape.”

The 73-year-old was reportedly by the Valvanera Monastery guesthouse at the time.

Medical responders, police and firefighters were mobilised but there was nothing they could do to save the Brit holidaymaker and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The alarm was sounded around 3pm yesterday.

An autopsy is expected to take place today.

Well-placed sources said there was nothing pointing to the death being suspicious in any way.

The hikers were understood to have been walking a route between the Valvanera Monastery, nestled in the Sierra de la Demanda mountains and home to a 28-room guesthouse and restaurant, and Los Pancrudos which is a succession of four mountains all above 6,500ft high.

As well as a woman described as his wife the dead man is said to have been with two friends.
