COVID 19 UPDATES

To our valued clients,

Your health and safety is our top priority. We would like to share with you a summary of the guidelines and best practices that we have implemented due to COVID-19 per Massachusetts safety standards. Please note that many of the required hygiene and cleaning protocols were already in place at Jay Christopher’s prior to COVID-19. This post is not all inclusive but a summary of the measures we are taking to re-open. We look forward to seeing all of our current clients and we continue to welcome new clients!

Social Distancing:

· The salon is a large and extremely well ventilated area.

· Face coverings or masks are required for all staff and clients.

· Physical partitions have been installed at the front desk area; ensuring social distancing.

· Our work stations have always been spaced out and we will continue to use the two far end stations. *This is more than 2 times the recommended distance*

· We are limiting the waiting area to 2 people at a time or one family. We have room for more per the 6 ft. guidelines but feel it is best for now to limit the waiting area to 2 people.

· You are also welcome to wait in your car. Let us know what will work best for you.

· Only one stylist and one client will be in the shampoo area at one time.

· Only one person will be under the dryer at one time maintaining a 6 feet distance from shampoo area.

Hygiene:

· Robust Hygiene and cleaning protocols are in place.

· Stylists and clients have easy access to soap and water for hand washing and approved hand sanitizer is available in each area of the salon.

· Stylists have adequate cleaning supplies.

· Glove changing and handwashing is required before and after each client and in between when needed.

· Our stylists do not share tools or supplies.

· Tools are disinfected before and after each client.

· Clean capes for each client.

· Visible signage throughout the salon, reminding stylists and clients on hygiene and safety protocols. A binder is kept on site with our plan.

Staffing Operations:

· If you are sick, please call and reschedule your appointment.

· Stylists will stay home if not feeling well.

· At this time, we are limited to providing hair services only.
