To make sure this busy schedule, she and her crew work laborious upstream to welcome clients within the "absolute best circumstances"from Monday, Might 11, regardless of the absence of directives,"it’s system D earlier than resumption!"
There can be plexiglass between every shopper. We’ve got additionally upgraded them to shampoo tubs. And we put in hydroalcoholic gel.

Materials provisions to which is added a reorganization of the present : "We organize the workstations in order that clients are spaced one meter aside. To do that, the crew has ordered just a few workstations. The present ought to be capable to accommodate as much as three clients most within the first weeks."
One other important parameter for Florence Roque: the time financial savings related to drastic hygiene measures. "We are going to take fifteen minutes between every shopper to scrub and disinfect every part. We ask them to reach on time to keep away from ready and transmitting the virus."Some companies are briefly discontinued, comparable to perms and wicks.
Sure salons will definitely be capable to preserve them, I made this choice. Firstly with regard to odors, we now have a small lounge and we’re forbidden to place the air-con on after which these companies take a very long time. We favor this treasured time to outline every part between purchasers.
Though delighted to be again in enterprise, Florence Roque has some fears : "I’m afraid that individuals will react as if the reopening of the salons means a return to regular, however this isn’t the case, it will likely be essential to take a number of precautions."
