In pictures: Falkirk hairdressers are welcoming customers back
Wednesday saw many more businesses across the district able to open for the first time since March.
Among them were hairdressers and barbers who are operating with strict safety measures in place to ensure the safety of customers and staff.
The demand for haircuts has seen the teams in local salons and barbers run off their feet and clients are delighted to be able to have their hair chopped and coloured after a long wait.
Our photographer Michael Gillen was out and about capturing images from this latest phase of lockdown restrictions easing.
