HAIRDRESSERS opened their doors across Herefordshire today for the first time since March.
Queues were seen outside men’s barbers as residents were keen to get a trim or change from their lockdown haircut.

Safety measures implemented
A range of safety precautions were implemented with some shops keeping their door locked or taped off and only opened for appointments at booked times.
Others had their door unlocked but asked people to fill in their contact details as they entered the building. Hand sanitizer was required to be used and hands washed on entry to the hairdressers.
The Salon in Leominster had a range of safety measures in place.
Staff at Renaissance, in Broad Street, Leominster, wore safety visors and facemasks as well as requiring customers to also wear a facemask.
