Hairstylist shifts gears, starts cleaning company amid pandemic
The coronavirus pandemic has changed the trajectory on how we eat, go to school, do business, and simply live.
The coronavirus pandemic has changed the trajectory on how we eat, go to school, do business, and simply live.
Entrepreneurs in the brick and mortar service business, such as hairstylists, have been hit incredibly hard during the pandemic. As the COVID cases began to rise, business transactions declined as owners were forced to close its doors.
Slowly, states are allowing certain business to operate but with restrictions. In New Jersey, hair salons and barber shops were able to open in June but not without a long set of rules.
Hairstylist shifts gears
One New Jersey hairstylist decided to embrace the changes of our new normal, shift gears and tap into what’s in high demand: disinfectants.
