As many of you know Governor Sununu has slated a re-open date for New Hampshire salon services.
You may also be aware that we did not wait for the Governor to mandate closing - we did it on our own. We felt it was our job as professionals to uphold the safety practices and standards that are required by the NH State Board of Cosmetology and the CDC for the well being of not only our guests, but our team and our families. We feel the same responsibility when it comes to the opening.
Our team has done countless hours of research and planning to come up with what we consider to be the best safety protocols for ourselves ,our guests, and our community as a whole. Chrome Salon and Barber will reopen as soon as all changes have been made and all needed safety supplies are secured. With the new guidelines the salon will need time to fully train each stylist on "best practices". Please be patient with us as we work through all of this. We promise we will accommodate everyone as soon as we can!
Guests whose appointments were affected by the shut down should expect to hear from us in the upcoming week or so to get you back in our schedules. All of our guests that were not affected but would like to set something up will be given 72 hr notice before we open back up.
Upon opening things will not be business as usual. Here are a few of the required changes you may want to prepare for:
Services will be very limited. Haircuts and color retouches only. No blow outs allowed.
All guests and team members must wear a mask at all times.
Only 10 people in salon at any given time NO exceptions.
Guest must arrive alone. No exceptions - and yes, this includes children.
Schedules and hours of operation will be changed to accommodate not only the state requirements, but also team members that have immune compromised family members or lack of daycare for their children.
Again, these are just a few of the things to expect. Chrome's full guidelines and opening status will be released at the beginning of next week.
Thank you for your understanding and thank you for waiting for us. We appreciate you all!
Much Love,
Sondra & The Team at Chrome
