Reboot Kit: How to Reopen Your Salon, Spa, or Wellness Business Post COVID-19

You've been temporarily closed in the face of this pandemic, but now is the time to start thinking about what your plan is when you open once again. When reopening your salon, spa, or wellness business, you’ll have to adjust to a new normal for a while or indefinitely.

New normal aside, there’s no reason why your reopening shouldn’t be a GRAND reopening. Your clients are eager to get back to your salon, spa, or wellness business. They've missed out on your services (we know hair salons will see high demand as everyone is looking to get their hair done ASAP).

When it comes to opening once again, there may be a lot to get done—but it should be memorable and fun. You'll want to celebrate this new chapter in your beauty business, after all. Plus, this kit outlines everything you need to consider as you open your doors again.

From supporting your front desk and stylists/estheticians/practitioners to communicating your new cleaning protocols amidst the coronavirus, we’ll break down what you can be doing now and over the coming weeks to prepare to reopen. This includes:
