(Austin, TX)  —  Governor Greg Abbott says hair and nail salons can reopen starting this Friday.

Yesterday’s announcement says salons must keep hairstylists separate by six feet, take appointments only or have walk-ins wait outdoors with social distancing and only attend to one customer at a time.  The measure applies to cosmetology salons, barbershops, hair salons, nail salons and tanning salons.

Gyms will reopen May 18th.
