Covid19 Update Effective July 9th
On the 9th of July, the "state of emergency" status for Rhode Island will be lifted, and many of the mandates will be optional instead of required. This will surely trigger anxiety in some, and grant a huge sense of relief for others.
After July 9th if you are not yet vaccinated, please continue to wear a mask.
We have decided as a group after a lot of thought and contemplation to ease into a mask OPTIONAL model as of July 9th. This means that if you are FULLY VACCINATED as the CDC and The RIDOH recommend and you prefer not to wear one, you do not have to. WE ASK THAT YOU BE HONEST IN THIS DECISION, as we still work with some immunocompromised folks and we MUST take them into consideration. We also have a seating area outside for those who prefer to wear a mask indoors, but would like to remove it during a long appointment.
We are all fully vaccinated here at Flipp. Some stylists may not be wearing their masks, some will. ALL OF US will wear it upon your request, SO DON'T BE SHY IN ASKING! We will continue to sanitize and utilize our ozone generator, Merv filtration, open door and windows. None of that will change.
We would like to embrace a slow but steady easing back into a more "normal" experience, keeping safety at the forefront. The Science is telling us that we can ease back a bit. We will keep our eyes sharply on the data, and make changes accordingly. Please always feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns you may have, we are more than happy to help!
FROM US:
To do our part, we will continue to uphold all of the protocols we put in place as far as keeping our studio sanitary by:
Keeping the windows open and the door ajar by at least 4 inches at all times for a constant influx of fresh air.
We continue to change out smocks and sanitize the stations between clients
Our Ozone generator with UV light runs twice over night. This creates an unlivable environment, which is why we run it overnight, when no one is there. Normal oxygen levels are restored by 6AM. Sounds scary...it isn't. It's Science.
FROM YOU:
PLEASE if you are feeling ill in any way or have been exposed to Covid19 or the Flu virus, we ask that you contact us to reschedule your appointment for the proper quarantine time required. We will happily assist you.
With all of that said, WE THANK YOU for your continued support and understanding. We will get through this...we can DO IT, but it takes a collective effort...it takes all of us. It takes cooperation.
