Give tattooists and beauty section a return to work date and guidelines covid19

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

The tattoo & beauty community are begging for an update on a return to work date/precautions to take/ Ppe for our return to work .Customers are wishing our return but we can’t give any information.We are losing money daily and can not see why dentists can return back to work safely when we can not.
We feel we are being left out of the loop, our mental health is deteriorating and we have no date to look forward to working again. It’s time to give us information. It’s time to let us be part of bringing the economy back. We don’t want to lose our business premises, we don’t not want to lose our jobs, our homes. Get us back to work
