Barbershops and salons are set to reopen from Sunday in Mumbai with the Maharashtra government issuing a notification to reopen them in the State under its ‘Mission Begin Again Phase IV’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shahid Hussain, a salon owner, said, “We will record customers’ temperatures and provide them with hand sanitisers when they enter our shop. We will use a new towel and haircut seat for each customer.” Hairstylists will wear PPE kits like masks and gloves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Use and throw products will be used. Without a prior appointment, we will not attend any customer. We will only use four to five staff at the maximum,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A barber in the shop said, “We will use gloves, sanitiser and try to maintain distance.” The barbershops and salons have to adhere to strict rules and regulations for their functioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the government notification, barbershops, salons, and beauty parlours will be allowed to function with prior appointments only. Only a few services such as haircut, dyeing hair, threading, etc are allowed. Skin related services will not be permitted presently. This should prominently be displayed in the shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
