Re: Salons in my state can open soon

I'm friends with my hairdresser, and they will be following the protocols. I'm more worried about going to the grocery store than having my hair done. Grocery stores have a far more chance of spreading the virus.

Re: Salons in my state can open soon

Our salons open Friday.  Both parties have to wear a mask, you have to text when you arrive to see if you can come in as only 1 person per stylist can be in there and they are asking that you not bring anyone else with you, unless you are bringing a child.  You also have to practice social distancing between chairs. 

 

I know my salon is opening on Sundays and later hours than normal to stagger people.  I personally have never been in the salon when more than 3 stylists are working, even on a Saturday.  Usually there are just 2 of them in there.  My salon is owned and operated by a working nurse so I would hope she would be on top of things.

 

I have no idea what nail salons are doing. Most of them are walk-in only which will have to change if they plan on opening.

@SeaMaiden, there is no need to call people names.  Everyone is free to choose to go to a salon or spa or not go.  And the salons, spas, etc. are free to not open if they don't feel it is safe either.

 

These poor people have been out of work for well over a month, with absolutely no income because in Ohio they still have not been able to apply for and receive unemployment.

If you are under 65 and in very good health--maybe. Otherwise no way. Just more proof that people only care about themselves and not others. If health isn't a priority for you, what more can I say? Go to the salon and risk the virus.

Same thing as going to the store. Actually Salons are a lot safer.


Exactly.  The campgrounds in our state still have not opened but yet restaurants with outdoor seating can open Friday, along with spas and salons.  Indoor seating in restaurants can begin on the 18th.  

 

The hold-up with campgrounds is the ODNR is concerned about keeping bathrooms cleaned?  Really?  What about the bathrooms in stores?  Or all the restaurants?  How about the marinas and golf courses that have remained open?  

 

At this point some of this doesn't make any sense anymore.

so spread the virus to help these people make a living? Hmmm interesting point of view.

I recommend reading a post that I just put up on Community Chat about the evaluation of risks. I included the author's creds. You might be surprised.

Sadly, there are a lot of "judgy" people.

 

You've obviously made your choice; allow others to make theirs without calling them names.

Re: Salons in my state can open soon

My hairstylist texted me this morning to let me know she'd be open next week and offered me a time to come in next Wednesday.  As much as I would like get some highlights, I decided to decline for now.
