Many young Canadians are turning to do-it-yourself (DIY) projects in an effort to save money as the cost of living soars.
Alex Antrobus, a 28-year-old living in Vancouver, started cutting their own hair in August 2021 for two reasons -- to avoid catching COVID-19 through close contact at salons and to save some dough.
"I'm happy about it, especially with the cost of living. Every little bit of thriftiness I can incorporate, I always feel pretty good about it." "DIY allows within your space to really show off your personality," the self-proclaimed DIY ninja said. "It's one thing to save up for the next five, maybe 10 years for your dream kitchen to get those quartz countertops and new cabinets, but why put off the dream ... when you can get that look for less by doing a few little DIY tweaks here and there?"
"But at the end of the day, there's nothing like the pride of completing something and being proud of it."
