Nats of a blow dryer at the hair company ...business is steady as usual for mike mcbunch... (nats of haircut) he says his clients don't seem to be nervous about coming to their appointments...al though concerns over coronavirus continue... "i've had one or two call in to say i can't make the appointment and i've had physicians say im saying i'm sorry i can't get off but i haven't really haven't.

Mcbunch is also the president of the board of barber examiners for the state...he says the health department has not urged barbers to stop... "if things get worse the health department would call me and say ok mike, we need you to shut it down."

He says until then...business will roll on... (nats something hot--) and clients like john michael mcbunch say continuing to take care of themselves this way provides a sense of normalcy especially...since he's been working in the middle of the this pandemic... "after yesterday it's really good to kind of wine down i guess i could say."

Mcbunch continues to sanitize and sterilize in between every appointment... (nats of sterilizing)) stand up like at the hair company...shaves is by appointment only...which helps keep the crowd sizes down... and business also has been steady for aaron washington... "so far my clients have been coming through."

Washington says he's not completely changing his cleaning routine but he is ramping it up a bit... we are taking a little extra precaution making sure we wipe the door down and spraying lysol cleaning taking care of our neighbors and not just ourselves because we just don't know.

We're kinda in an unfamiliar place."

For barbers that are seeing changes in their shop...mcbunch encourages you to stay positive.... if you're not really busy right now and the public decline in your shot...give it a deep cleaning and keep it going!
