Beauty Salons Soft Open May 1st
Allow salons to reopen and service one client at a time per professional as of May 1st, 2020. This limits the amount of people in one place. Using a mask and gloves during service poses little to no risk of the disease spreading. State sanctioned sanitation protocols laid out by the Florida Department of Business and Regulation and the Board of Health precautions will both be followed. Both professionals and clients will wear masks and clients will be required to sanitize at the door.
Why is this important?
Beauty professionals are facing hard times financially during this crisis. These businesses should be deemed as essential since they serve the community. Beauty professional survival is at risk. In addition to this, salons aid the public in personal hygiene, which is important for health and social reasons. Good personal hygiene benefits one’s own health and the health of those around them by keeping hands, feet, and body clean to limit the spread of illness and germs.
