(Le Mars) — People will now be able to get a haircut beginning on Friday since Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds announced Wednesday she is allowing for many businesses throughout the state, including beauty salons and barbershops, to again open for business. Todd Anderson is the owner of both the Mantrap
Beauty Salon and the Le Mars Beauty College, both located in Le Mars.
Anderson shares his plans for both businesses.
The Iowa Department of Public Health has issued several stipulations and regulations that businesses must follow in order to curtail the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Anderson says both of his establishments have enough space to comply with most of the spacing requirements.
As for the staff, Anderson says they will be wearing masks. He recommends that customers also bring a mask, but realizing it may create some problems with cutting hair, so he has some suggestions.
Anderson says his business hours will remain the same as they were prior to the start of coronavirus. However, he says customers will need to make an appointment.
The hair styling business operator says the restrictions and requirements will apply to both the Mantrap and the Le Mars Beauty College.
