2021 Covid-19 Updates!

July 01, 2021

2020 was a difficult year for everyone, no doubt about that. While we’re very excited about things starting to get back to normal in the world, we don’t want to get ahead of ourselves. We wanted to take a quick minute to update everyone on our current procedures in the studio.

Our staff are all fully vaccinated now (hooray!), so we’re finally able to all be in the studio at the same time, after more than a year of working short staffed with only one or two of us in the studio each day. Although we’ll miss working from home in our PJs, we’re glad to have our normal schedules back, and to have more time in the studio again. Although we’re all vaccinated, we are staying extra cautious for now, and continuing to wear masks in the studio. We are still requiring anyone coming into the studio wear a mask as well.

We are still appointment only if you’d like to come to the studio. This is to ensure that we only have one client in the studio at a time, as it’s a small space. Appointments also greatly help us plan out our day, and ensure that we never end up with several people showing up at the same time, which is quite hectic in our small space! We will likely continue to require appointments in the future, as it’s very helpful for us to be able to prepare for your visit and have any materials ready when you arrive. We can also accommodate outside pickups/drop-offs if you need a more loose arrival time, or if you need to arrive when we already have an appointment scheduled.

While we do not close at all for a lunch hour, we are currently trying to keep 1-1:30 free of in-studio appointments. Two staff members’ desks are in the main studio area, rather than separate offices, so we are keeping this time free so that they can eat lunch and not be maskless while a client is in the studio. If you absolutely need to come during this time, we will try to plan for an outside pickup/drop-off for you, so that someone can help you outside while others eat lunch in the studio.

As always, we’ll do everything we can to accommodate your needs. Whether you’d like to visit the studio in person or continue working remotely, we can make it happen! If you have any questions, or if you’d like to set up appointment, you can give us a call at 703-684-0005, or fill out our contact form here.
