Back to Work Guidelines

In partnership with Barbicide, PBA Visionary Members, and other industry experts who have generously donated their time, we created a full list of Back to Work guidelines that include everything from sanitation to client engagement. As we prepare for salons to re-open, we want to ensure that everyone is following proper health and safety procedures to create a comfortable and safe environment for clients. We’ve been working closely with local state governments to encourage using this document as their primary guidance for helping salons re-open.

Educational Series

To better prepare the industry for the new normal, we’ve created 2 new webinar series: Prepping for Success and OWNing Re-opening. Our first series, Prepping for Success, has focused on everything from proper sanitation procedures, to how to price yourself, to financial fitness. This comprehensive series of 5 sessions will run through May 8 with recorded sessions available on our website. On May 6, we’ll be launching our new series OWNing Re-opening. This targeted series will help salon owners better prepare for re-opening and include topics such as employee engagement and motivation, how to de-stress during this new normal and an overview on business and personal insurance coverage. Both of these series are specifically designed to help better prepare our industry to successfully get back to work.

Social Assets

We’ve created a full series of social assets to target salons and stylists with back to work guidelines and best practices. These will be shared on our social and can be tagged or reposted as desired. Additionally, we’ve added several graphics for stylists to share with their clients; letting clients know how their experiences will differ now and the new expectations
