There are about 90,000 people active in the hair and beauty sector, which is a R300bn industry.The hair and beauty industry has given the director-general of the trade and industry department until noon to provide guidelines for salons, spas and tattoo parlours to reopen under level 3, or the Employers Organisation for Hairdressing, Cosmetology and Beauty will go to court.

EOHCB national manager Cobus Grobler confirmed the department failed to meet its “self-invoked” deadline to publish health protocols and guidelines on June 5, which would have led to personal care services being reintroduced under alert level 3 of the national lockdown. The EOHCB then instructed its lawyers to immediately dispatch a letter to the director-general of the department, calling for a response by close of business on June 8 to enable the EOHCB to consider its position going forward.

Grobler said the organisation has now called for the director-general to respond by noon on Tuesday .The organisation had previously stated that up to 70% of the country's salons, spas and tattoo parlours face closure as their businesses remain under lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic.Since the start of the lockdown at the end of May, thousands of workers in the beauty industry have poured out their desperation in submissions to the government.
