Hello and welcome back!
Glad to see your well and back on track.
What a time of chaos, hay!?
Anyway…Here’s to the NEW norm….
Here are some guide lines to keeping this virus at bay, while visiting Abigail Friday’s Salon:
Covid 19 Updated Friday 10th July 2020.
Dear Client,
Welcome back to Abigail Friday’s Electrolysis and Beauty Salon. Glad we find you well and hope this pandemic hasn’t affected you too much!?
We are following the government guidelines for the protection of all of us against Covid 19 and any other viruses.
We know it has been a long time (March 23rd) since we have seen you and we will put everything into place to help you be safe and to provide a smooth transition back to the new normal of treatments.
On Thursday 9th July 2020, the Government announced that we will be able to open the salon again on Monday 13th July 2020.
New Safety Measures at the Salon
In preparation for our opening, we have made the following adjustments to abide by the current guidelines.
- Social distancing – For all beauty professionals, it is not possible to adhere to the 2-meter social distance. However, Abigail Friday’s electrolysis and Beauty Salon have taken a course in infection control and are licensed from Influence Consultancy services BSC Infection Control (see certificate above) whereby we understand the risks of Covid-19 and haven taken all the following measures to mitigate them in the beauty salon.
- New Bookings Policy – All bookings must be done in advanced and we will not accept walk-ins. This is so we can maintain a ‘one client per staff member’ policy in the salon at any one time unless multiple clients who visit the salon together are from the same household. If clients come with individuals who are not from the same household, they will be asked to wait outside the salon. Clients may book using one of the many following ways:
- Call – 0121 328 2089
- Mobile – 07530572860
- Email – abigail@fridaysbeautysalon.co.uk
- Facebook– fridaysbeautysalon
- Instagram– fridaysbeautysalon
- Covid-19 Waiver Form (When booking) – All clients who book for an appointment must complete our Covid-19 Waiver Form. If this form isn’t filled out, we can’t treat you and your treatment will be cancelled. And you will have to rebook. All clients must complete the waiver form. If you have any queries, please do contact us on 0121 328 2089 or 07530572860.
- On arrival to the salon – Please ring the door bell as normal and let us know you have arrived. You can either wait outside if you prefer or wait inside. Due to the spacing of clients you can safely wait inside. Please arrive 5-10 minutes earlier to fill out a Covid-19 waiver form before your treatment time.
- Before arrival to salon– Dear client, please arrive alone (unless not possible) with as little personal property as possible e.g. leave handbags/scarfs jewellery etc at home to help us stop cross contamination of infections.
- Payments – Card payments are preferred, but cash is still taken.
- Cancellation Policy and Amendments – During the pandemic, we will permit any client to cancel up until the point of their booking if we are informed of symptoms of Covid-19. Please contact us on 0121 3282089 or 07530572860. Otherwise, our standard 24-hour cancellation policy applies.
- PPE – Masks are to be worn by all staff and clients at the salon. We ask for all clients to bring their own mask. However, we will be providing a disposable mask for every client. We understand that certain services will make it difficult to wear a mask. When it is necessary to remove a mask to undertake certain treatments, we will ask the client to remove the mask once they are ready in the treatment room. Staff will also be wearing a visor, mask and gloves at all times. This is to mitigate the risk as much as possible with everyone coming into the salon. We will be applying deep cleaning measures in the treatment rooms in preparation before and after every client.
- Infection control – On top of our usual high standards of cleaning, we will be implementing further cleaning and disinfection measures, including, equipment, work stations, door handles, and counters, before and after every client. We are also implementing handwashing standards for every client as they enter the salon. Hand sanitiser will also be available in various areas of the salon.
- Symptoms – As always, if clients are showing any symptoms of Covid-19, they are to not come to the salon and stay home as per the Government’s guidelines.
We want to create an environment where everyone is comfortable and protected as much as possible, by abiding by the guidelines by the Government Covid-19 course for beauty professionals. We appreciate your understanding during this time and will keep you informed as further announcements come from the Government.
Thank you for supporting us during this time as we will continue to deliver our quality standards that you have become accustomed to, over our 29 years of business in Birmingham. I wish you and your family good health and so be safe and well, and I hope to see you soon.
If you have any queries, please contact me directly on 0121 328 2089, 07530572860 or via a whatsapp message at any time, and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
Love to you all and see you soon,
Abigail Friday
