Covid-19 Re-Open

We are happy to say we are now open! We appreciate your patience and support during this unpredictable circumstance.

We will be following strict safety guidelines to ensure the well being of both clients and employees. These new guidelines will be in effect for as long as needed in collaboration with the board rules for safety and sanitation.

We will be working at 50% capacity to ensure social distancing is maintained. Appointments are available by appointments only and walk-ins will not be allowed.

Please wait in your car until your appointment time. We will have a sanitation station to take your temperature, provide hand sanitizer and ensure masks are worn.

Here are some of the safety standards we will also be following based on recommendations from the Safe Salons for Michigan Coalition:

· Personal protective equipment will be used by all workers, including masks. Clients will also be asked to wear masks. We will have some available for purchase if necessary.

· Temperature checks will be performed upon entry.

· Administrative controls for workers, including daily screening for workers to ensure they’re healthy before starting each shift, requiring workers to stay home if sick, maintaining appointment information including date and time of service, name, and contact information to assist in contract tracing if needed.

· Access control for customers and guests, including staggered entry, prohibiting the return of products, accepting customers by appointment only where possible, asking clients to wait outside in their vehicle until their appointment time.

· Social distancing on the job site for both workers and clients, including 6 feet of distance.

· Extra best practices to ensure healthy hygiene on site will include the laundering of work clothing daily, limiting the personal items clients can bring with them for their appointment.

· Sanitation requirements include the cleaning of merchandise before stocking, constant disinfection of work areas and instruments, disposal of single-use materials.

· Following facility closure each day, facilities will undergo deep cleaning with disinfectant cleaners.

Thank you so much for your loyalty and business. We look forward to seeing you soon!
