On December 4th, San Francisco Mayor Breed announced that San Francisco would voluntarily and preemptively shut down all non-essential businesses in San Francisco including hair salons and barber shops on December 6th at 10pm. The announcement came one day after Governor Gavin Newsom issued New Covid-19 Regional Guidance to close all non-essential indoor businesses for 3-weeks, including hair salons and barber shops, when the region’s remaining ICU capacity falls below 15%.

During the first 6-months that my business was shut down by local order, between mid-March and mid-September, I carefully analyzed my business and made safety modifications to my services and cleaning and disinfection protocols to protect myself and my guests from possible Covid-19 viral transmission. The sanitization and safety protocols I implemented, in combination with the natural cross ventilation of my space, makes my salon one of the safest salons in San Francisco to receive a haircut or color.

I’m very sad to I have to close my doors once again on December 6th. I anticipate reopening soon, and I look forward to sharing my space with you when the time is right.

Jan. 4, 2021 Update: Mayor London Breed has extended the San Francisco “Stay Home” order indefinitely. Please call or email me to discuss how I may support you and your hair care during these challenging times.

During the first few weeks of sheltering-in-place, I spent a good amount of time thinking through how to bring truly natural and organic hair color to my clients. I started by providing a small group of clients with 100% natural, herbal hair color kits for home use. The results were fantastic. Three months later, I believe that professionally applied, herbal hair dye may be the safest and healthiest hair color option for anyone staying home or going back to the salon for hair color after the shelter-in-place orders are lifted.

The plant dyes I use (henna, cassia, indigo and amla) do not come in a box. They are ethically sourced, pure, unadulterated, organic plant leaf powders that I custom blend to create bespoke natural hair color that is professionally applied to your hair in about an hour. Because I offer an "application only" service, it will dramatically reduce your time in the salon and eliminate face-to-face time at the shampoo bowl. For these reasons alone, this service may be the safest hair color option available when the Covid-19 SIP orders are lifted. In addition to being safer from a social contact perspective, 100% herbal hair dye is free of toxins, out performs chemical color, and is restorative rather than damaging for fine and textured hair. If you want natural looking and completely non-toxic hair color, I recommend giving herbal dye a try.
