What you need to know BEFORE VISITING

Absolutely!

We have collectively decided to implement a vaccination policy for the salon that will apply to all future employees - this means that we will not be hiring anyone who has chosen not be vaccinated.
This means that all of our employees will be double vaccinated, and will continue to get any booster shots that become available.

This decision has been made because we do work so closely with the public and with each other, and it is not always possible to remain distanced at work.

The purpose of this policy is to make sure that our team members are not at unnecessary risk around their fellow coworkers, and also that our guests are not being put at unnecessary risk by any of us.  

Short answer - no.

Hair salons are not among those who have been named in vaccine legislations because it has been determined that transmissions are not happening to any measurable degree in our industry.  

Though we prefer to service those who have been fully vaccinated, we will not be requiring proof of vaccination at this time.
This decision may change in the future, depending on what the next few months bring.

Yes. Currently, masks are required in all public indoor settings for all people born in 2009 or earlier.

We are happy to continue following provincial health mandates for the benefit of all.

As a private business that offers non-essential services, we are not required by law to accommodate people with mask exemptions. Our services are luxuries, not essential services.

We know this may be difficult to hear for those with legitimate reasons for not wearing a mask, and we ask for your patience.

We are all doing everything we can to keep operating without putting our families at risk more risk than they already are. 

We will continue to do all that we can to ensure the safest environment possible for our staff and our guests.

 
We thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Yes.

A capacity-limit has been reintroduced to the salon. No more than 6 persons total may be in the salon at one time.

We remain advised to maintain physical distancing in the salon whenever possible.

We encourage guests to be mindful of others, to be patient and to give space to others at all times. Some folks are feeling pretty anxious about all of this - let's all do our part to make sure everyone remains safe and comfortable in our space!

Please note that we are typically booked many weeks in advance, so it's advisable to make an appointment.

Yes and no.

At this time, we are no longer requiring guests to fill out a safe check-in form, as we have no had any instances where guests have come when they should not have. 

Our staff does, and will always continue to self-monitor and follow salon protocol regarding health and safety, Covid or not.

We have developed and established protocol for both guests and employees. The protocol has since evolved and expanded several times, and it is now our de facto Communicable Disease Prevention Plan. 

This plan will remain in place indefinitely. As things progress, we will continue to both follow public health orders, to assess the situation ourselves, and we will make modifications to our protocols wherever and whenever necessary.
