In an effort to gain as much traction as we can, Sola Salon Studios, My Salon Suites, Phenix Salons, Salons by JC, Image Salons and several other salon suites companies have partnered together to support all independent salon owners working in the studio and suite space in California. Collectively, we aim to create change. We appreciate your support!

As business closures become the solution to controlling the spread of COVID-19, hair salons are taking an enormous and unnecessary hit. Moving services outdoors puts beauty professionals at a higher risk of contracting and spreading COVID-19 and makes it impossible to adhere to the same sanitation regulations as being in the controlled environment of the salon. Beauty professionals have proven they can slow the spread of COVID-19 in the salon by adhering to the sanitation regulations set forth by the Board of Barbering and Cosmetology. As an example: At our collective locations, out of nearly 6,000 independent salon owners in California, only 14 have tested positive for coronavirus. None of the collective clients were impacted.

Within salon studios, beauty professionals perform one-to-one beauty services in a private and enclosed space limiting mass human contact. Within the salon, beauty professionals have more control over sanitation in order to reduce the spread of COVID-19.

By not including hairdressers and beauty professionals as essential businesses, requiring services to be performed outside is putting our professionals at risk. Please show your support by signing our petition!
