Spas and salons open to service limited clients in Pune

PUNE: The latest relaxations in the curfew restrictions come as a great relief for salons, beauty parlours and spas in the city as they are officially allowed to open their shutters from Monday to Friday till 4pm at 50% capacity.
Owners and management of such enterprises are ensuring the safety of the staff and clients by implementing strict protocols.
Manasee Dogra of Manasee Hair Studio 101 in Kalyaninagar and Kharadi, said, “We have made sure all our staff has been vaccinated.
They still have to wear PPE kits and masks.
Our priority is to sanitise our premises, including all equipment and furniture, using a de-fogger.
While most beauty parlours and salons are air-conditioned, we think that proper circulation of fresh air is key at the moment, so we will focus on proper ventilation.” “We will only take clients on appointment-basis as we are working with 50% of the pre-Covid strength of our staff, and we want to ensure that proper social distancing is maintained.
Walk-in clients will be told to take prior appointments.” Prajakta Gupta, the founder and director at Cologne Spa in Koregaon Park, said that with operation hours till 4pm, they can manage only a dozen appointments a day, which seems like a good start after being shut down for months.
“All therapy rooms will be fumigated every two hours and sanitised after every session.
We have been using disposable sheets and towels even before the pandemic, which we will continue even now.
The staff members will thoroughly sanitise after each session with a client.
They will also be equipped with the PPE gear.
We will only service clients that have no symptoms.
If we find that a client has a slight cough, even if they are not Covid-positive or have been vaccinated, we won’t take any chances for the safety of our staff and other clients, and politely ask them to come back after they are well,” Gupta said.
“We will be opening the salon as per the guidelines.
We expect a rush of customers, which is why one has to take prior appointment as per the guidelines.
Only 50% capacity in terms of seating would be allowed,” Kiran Shinde, who runs New Delight Men’s Parlour in Kasba Path, said.
