British Government Guidelines for opening of salons in uk after lockdown.

New guidance for hairdressers by the Government for England:

1.When visiting hairdressers, markings on the floor will show where people should sit, and customers will be encouraged to turn up to their appointment exactly on time.

2..If there is a queue, this should be outside with social distancing in place.
Customers can expect to be seated away from others and side-to-side, with at least one metre (and preferably two) between themselves and other clients.

3.Till points will have screens between customers and cashiers and doors and windows will be kept open to increase ventilation.

4.Hairdressers must also wear a protective visor that extends below their chin, but do not need to wear an additional face mask.

5.Customers can choose to wear a face covering if they wish to but this is not mandatory.

6.You can still have your hair blow dried, but magazines will be ditched due to the risk of transferring Covid-19 via surfaces.

7.only water in disposable cups or bottles will be allowed, as salons will not be serving coffee.

8.Music must also be turned down low so that people do not end up shouting to one another, which increases the risk of transmitting the virus.

9.Customers should be encouraged to wash or sanitise their hands as they enter the premises or before a treatment.

10.Salons should use disposable equipment where possible, but should wash non-disposable equipment such as scissors between each client.

11.Customer chairs should also be sanitised after each use, toilets cleaned regularly and disposable gowns used for each person where possible, with clean towels for each client.

12.Salons will also keep a temporary record of all clients and visitors for 21 days, in case there is a coronavirus outbreak.

We request Government of India to adopt suitable guidelines as per situations of India .
