How is Vasuda Salon Managing COVID-19

Due to ongoing developments of the COVID-19 (coronavirus), new guidelines from local authorities, and Vasuda’s commitment to employee/client health and safety, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily close both Vasuda Salon Locations (Seattle and Tacoma). Beginning March 17, 2020, we will be close and we will start taking clients for service again April 4th, 2020 (god willing).

The safety of Vasuda Salon clients and our team is our top priority. That is why we want to make you aware of the steps we are taking to protect everyone’s health and safety. Sanitizing our tools, equipment, and work stations are what we normally do and we will continue to follow a stringent infection prevention protocol. Some of the extra safety steps we are undertaking include:

• Wiping the stations and chairs with anti-bacterial/ viricide cleansing solution after each client.

• Wiping down frequently used surfaces, such as countertops, door handles, tabletops, elevator buttons, etc. throughout the day.

• Having soap and hand sanitizer available throughout the salon for clients and staff.

• Continuing to sanitize combs, brushes, and other tools after each use.

• Whenever possible, seating clients at every other station to create more distance.

• Having only one stylist and client at the work station at a time; unless it is a parent.

• Reminding our staff not to come in if they feel any indication of sickness.

• We are also encouraging clients to reschedule appointments if they feel ill.

We will continue to update you on any additional guidelines from the CDC and other government agencies, as they relate to our business. In the meantime, please stay safe and thank you, for your patronage.”

What are the main symptoms of COVID-19?

The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, tiredness, and dry cough. Some patients may have aches and pains, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat or diarrhea. These symptoms are usually mild and begin gradually. Some people become infected but don't develop any symptoms and don't feel unwell. Most people (about 80%) recover from the disease without needing special treatment. Around 1 out of every 6 people who get COVID-19 becomes seriously ill and develops difficult breathing. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like high blood pressure, heart or diabetes, are more likely to develop serious illness. People with fever, cough and difficulty breathing should seek medical attention.
