Mayor Oliver Gilbert outlined the list of guidelines that businesses are to adhere to. Businesses may open sooner if they are able to operate within the listed guidelines.

Employees at those businesses must follow CDC guidelines like using disposable materials and supplies, only accepting appointments (NO Walk-in customers) and giving hand sanitizer to customers.

Customers are not allowed to wait in the store. Businesses must limit the number of customers in-store to ONE person PER SERVICE.

All employees and customers must follow social distancing guidelines, and wear face masks and employees must get their temperatures checked before work.

Work stations should be separated by at least six feet and if they can’t, there must be a plexiglass barrier between salon chairs.

The use of face shields is required for face-to-face services, employees must wear protective gloves and wear a single-use lab-coat or protective gown. All equipment, chairs, and tables used by an employee must be sanitized between clients.
