Why Austin isn't reopening with the rest of Texas

If you do decide to go to another nail salon before we know more about this virus, please contact me for any questions regarding my views on the health and safety planning in place for the beauty industry.

Reopening my studio will cost a huge amount of capital to find a new rental space for the studio as well as a majority of salon furniture occupying the space.

I really feel we are going to have another wave of this and will be back to square one. Please do not risk your safety and the safety of others for a quick nail service that isn’t following guidelines for Covid-19 AND extra health and safety guidelines to protect everyone.

It is just too soon for a reopening of Gemini Nails and Makeup. Be patient ♊️

“Don’t Hate Me Because You Want To Be Beautiful”

By:

Melody Lasseter

I want you to think of every movement you make while entering the salon. Every single one. But let’s take that back a few steps and think about where you have been prior to coming into the salon.

This is what TDLR and health officials should be thinking as well. Masks and gloves aren’t going to do the trick here. Salons need to revisit the TDLR Health and Safety Standards Book, which is a requirement by law, to have in the salon. It already states that clients must wash hands prior to their service as well as antibacterial hand sanitizer before touching the client.

Think about how many salons you have been to that enforce this one simple rule. But, what about where your shoes have been, where your purse has been set down, or what your clothes might have brushed up against at the grocery store. Don’t even get me started on smart devices.

Protocols must be set in place that are designated “safe zones” for all personal items. These should not be allowed inside the “safe work zone” and should not be accessible during services. Protocols for emergency situations must be thought out prior to opening.

Oh, you aren’t even in my chair yet? Wait. You aren’t even through the door yet?? This is why I am against the opening of beauty services until the standardized laws that were previously written in the TDLR Health and Safety Book are enforced. We need a new system. In the past 20 years, how many times do you think my studio has been inspected by the TDLR?

Twice.

I want you to really think on that. I want you to think about how many nail salons you have been to in your life thinking as you are walking out, “I hope I don’t get an infection.” Cleanliness has and always should be top priority in this industry. Sadly, that hasn’t been the case in many of my own experiences receiving beauty services, especially nail salons.

Let me ask you this. How many times have you left a nail salon with a cuticle that has been cut or is red from a file, nail bit, or cuticle nipper? The beauty industry is going to have to drastically change for reopening. TDLR didn’t have enough workers to perform regulatory inspections so what makes you think that they will now that we are in a pandemic. TDLR has been negligent in the past when it comes to following up on a complaint made by a patron. Even if an inspector does follow-up, the salon has to pay a fine for every law that is broken. In most cases, these salons are issued a warning and the inspector has to come back to reinspect.

With Covid-19 we are talking about your life and the lives of others. No amount of money can put a price on risking lives. If your child lost their life due to Covid-19 from contamination in the salon, would a warning be enough?

TDLR and medical professionals need to be teaming up with salon owners and operators to put in place a medical standard of running a salon. Every single step between the operator and the patron must be taken into account. These steps must have guidelines to follow if even one mistake is made.

You still aren’t in my chair yet, are you? Good. The industry isn’t even remotely close to being ready. Not in my opinion. Oh, I forgot to mention that I was diagnosed with on April 4th, 2020.

Stay tuned for Part 2
