When quarantine originally started, there was a scramble to figure out just what would be classified as an essential business. First up on the chopping block was salons, which after three months of quarantine has led to some interesting hairstyle decisions being made. Currently shops are reopening in California, but I may wait just a little while longer before I cut my hair.
