It is amazing that all these sectors that do not pay any taxes are finally disclosing their income. EdKieswetter should be taking note... Salon industry makes R300 bn a year..

Government must just come up and tell us when are the saloons reopening and stop wasting out time telling he is ready to reopen saloons

They are sending Grade R's to school on the 6th of July but closing saloons, where's the logic

They always say they are 'ready'.

Another clueless minister MizKhu , beauty industry is dominated by foreigners and for example salons in Sunnyside, Joburg don't have hygiene never had hygiene, minister is time PutSouthAfricaFirst restructure this sector

Its not like salons are operated by Government. Hairdressers are some of the neatest with properly sanitised tools
