What to Expect

Face masks are recommended
OSHA still recommends us both to wear a mask during the service because we cannot keep 6 feet apart. I have disposable masks available for you.

Clean, Sanitize, and Disinfect
I clean top to bottom; every surface frequently touched, hard, porous/soft, non-porous, multi-use tools, floor, and windows with EPA approved cleaning products to disinfect and sanitize as the label recommends. I allow at least one hour in between each appointment to ensure enough time to disinfect to ensure the space is ready for you. Additionally I allow time for airing out of the space. You may notice the extra time added to each service online. A more detailed explanation of the Change It Up Cleaning + Disinfection Procedures are below

Change It Up Salon is a one stylist salon of a 495 square feet studio.
