Stay Safe & Beautiful From COVID19!

What a journey this has been. When the shutdown was announced we went into shock mode, everyone thought, what next and how long would this last? We had to catch our breath and go back to work even though there was no income.

Salons started talking to each other through the internet sharing advice on sanitization protocol, to keep our guests and staff safe. Testing for the staff was mandatory if we were going to open in the months to come.
We started sanitizing from the rafters to the floor and all plants that we love had a haircut and bath. We removed anything that was nonessential, such as magazines, furniture, dishes, coffee pots,etc. off the premises.
It took us over two months to be ready for opening. Ordering new equipment such as touchless items, thermometer, disinfectant, paper towels, containers, and so on. The cost was mounting with no income coming in.

As the months passed everything came together. Tijeras is truly blessed with an amazing clientele who gave us support and encouragement.

The following will ease your concerns for safety. All protocol is in place for your protection and salon staff.

We are now open and working at 25% capacity, so every appt. is a valued appointment, we are asking for a 24-hour cancellation notice.
The Tijeras building is divided into four sections, each section allows one stylist and one guest.

• When you arrive: Stay in your car until we can take your temperature with a touchless thermometer, we will ask you if you have traveled in the past 14 days. If so, we will ask you if you have been in quarantine for the past 14 days.

If you do not pass those questions, you are asked to rebook for the safety of all.
