Having had the same hairstyle ever since he stepped on the court, one would wonder why Djokovic went to the salon often.

The Serb had no professional hairstylist during the lockdown period. But he still managed to have a stylist near him at all times. Jelena Djokovic, Novak’s wife, was bored with staying home during the first coronavirus quarantine. While the two were in the house, Jelena used the time to cut her husband’s hair. The two even uploaded a video of the activity on Jelena’s Instagram account.
