A Shelby County barbershop is planning to reopen its doors Friday in defiance of the state’s order shuttering non-essential businesses after its owner said it was left “with no other choice.”


quote:

”Granted, we are not designated, according to the state of Alabama as ‘essential,’ but the income in which we have been deprived through governmental mandate is essential to our staff and their families,” Farr wrote. The Male Room and its employees filed for stimulus programs intended to blunt the impact of the coronavirus, Farr said, but the benefits may take time to reach the business.

“And while this relief may eventually find its way to us, we are left with no other choice than to reopen for business now,” he said. “So, given the circumstances The Male Room will reopen for business on Friday, April the 17th at 10 a.m.”

Not brave. Desperate. People need money to survive and this barber is opening his doors because his employees lack an income to provide for their families.

If the 6' distance is adhered to, I can't see why it's an issue.
Barber can just wipe himself down, change gloves in between customers, just like a doctor would do (and not what any grocery clerk is doing)

Businesses in BR have tried this and have been shutdown, and they didn’t even publicize it.
