Over the past few weeks, states across the US have made positive steps towards easing lockdown restrictions, allowing people and businesses to safely return to some degree of normality. The reopening of salons came in different phases in different states. Still, there\u2019s one commonality: the celebration of the comeback and surge in demand for appointments across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

There were a few reasons people missed their stylists and beauticians so much during the lockdown, and it wasn\u2019t all to do with grown-out roots, chipped nails, and shaggy beards.
