WINNIPEG --
New public health orders came into effect on Saturday, allowing barbershops and salons to reopen at 50 per cent capacity.
It's good news for The Weekend Hair Salon, which has been closed for almost two months.
Ali Aldulaimi, the owner of the salon, said when the new health orders were announced, he received close to 100 phone calls in four hours.
"Now we're open for seven days a week for the first two weeks. (We're) trying to cover all the clients and keep them happy, and hopefully business goes back to normal," he said.
Aldulaimi said being able to resume business is a blessing, but reopening at 50 per cent capacity makes it challenging to schedule employees.
