Services of salons, barbershops no longer limited to haircuts — Palace

Salons and barbershops will soon be allowed to offer services other than haircuts, Malacañang said Friday.

Presidential spokesperson Harry Roque said the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases made the decision on Thursday.

He added the Department of Trade and Industry will issue the guidelines that will govern the gradual resumption of other services provided by salons and barbershops.

“Yung mga pedicure, manicure antayin muna po ang guidelines bagamat in principle papayagan po yan antayin lang natin ang guidelines ng DTI,” Roque said in a televised briefing.

These establishments will be allowed to open at 30% operating capacity in areas under general community quarantine and at 50% operating capacity in areas under modified general community quarantine. — Virgil Lopez/RSJ, GMA News
