By the end of March, 42 states issued mandated stay-at-home orders and all 50 placed restrictions on residents in order to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), leaving many without access to most service-oriented businesses. The beauty industry was among the hardest hit due to nationwide closures of hair salons, spas, and dermatology offices.
Now, as stay-at-home orders reach their expiration dates, dozens of states have announced plans to reopen business. While this includes facilities such as nail salons and spas, you may be wondering where specialty businesses like blow-dry bars fall into the equation.
