Rejected petition Allow Salons To Open First Post Lockdown #2 In England

I am asking Boris Johnson that once lockdown #2 is over, for the sake of businesses, the economy, and more importantly, mental health, for both clients and the business owners, allow salons to be the first or at least part of the first group of businesses to open.

More details

The beauty industry in the UK alone is worth close to £30bn. And yes, we know the pub industry is worth £23bn and the restaurants contribute £38bn but let’s face it, you can’t eat or enjoy your pint with full PPE nor can you behave rationally and adhere to social distancing rules whilst you’ve had a few drinks down you! I am not judging those who enjoy bars and pubs whatsoever, I am just comparing safety and logic. In a salon, you can behave and follow rules for the sake of everyone’s safety.
