But the hair and beauty industry is not yet celebrating as there has been no date given as to when it can officially start operating.
“Any date later than next week will continue to add to the distress. We are grateful that government at last took note of our emphasis on the effect of the lockdown on the women in our industry. Continued guidance and support of all subsectors will be required to ensure save practices in the salons. The responsibility now will rest with the employers and employees in the industry,” said EOHCB national manager Cobus Grobler.
