Please contact the Bargaining Council for any assistance in this regard. www.hcsbc.co.za Contracts and Agreements A chair rental agreement is only as good as the contract that governs it! A proper contract will protect all parties and ensure peace of mind and a harmonious working relationship. As part of the EOHCB membership, assistance with contracts is offered – please contact them for more info and assistance. www.eohcb.co.za Rental vs Employment There are many salons at this time offering two options: chair rental, or to be employed by the salon. If you prefer to work as an employee then please get in touch with the salon and discuss whether this is an option.

This complaint from a client looking to have her hair done, was posted on the I Love Fourways group on 10 December, a closed community group in Fourways with a membership of 70,000. Specific problems that were mentioned by the client at some of the salons she visited (there were names named but we have removed them) included the following: “they weren't wearing masks at (salon named) and told me it's okay because I wore a mask, the guy was touching his nose and mouth and wanted to touch my hair - by the way he removed his mask once I sat in the chair. (Salon named) seems to think masks are a joke, the woman's mask kept falling off and she continuously touched it basically using it for the sake of it. (Salon named) stylists also seemed to use masks for the sake of it and there was no sanitizing happening, their attitude told me that they weren't interested. By the way, all 3 salons are based in Bryanston so I'm not sure if it's an area based thing.” This serves as a very important reminder that it is easy to let your standards slip and start becoming tired of the stringent Covid-19 protocols and then become careless about them. It serves as an even more important reminder that clients notice these things! They might not speak about it on a community group as this client has done, but they are noticing just the same. With a second wave now upon us, everyone needs to keep their standards extremely high. Not wearing a mask might not mean much to you and that moment of carelessness might not even be noticed by yourself. But clients are watching, and they are fearful, and they are annoyed that they can’t go anywhere for a fabulous hairdo and TLC, without feeling exposed, unsafe, and at risk. Please let this be a warning to the whole industry to keep your hygiene and safety standards high. Do you want your salon name mentioned negatively, on a community group with tens of thousands of members? Do you want to think for one moment that you might be responsible for the illness, suffering or death of any of your clients? It is tiresome to wear a mask correctly all the time, but you are professionals in your salon and are in the public eye. Wear the mask correctly, find a well fitting one that you do not have to touch the whole time. It might be a little uncomfortable, but remember that at the end of their 12+ hour shifts, the doctors and nurses wearing their N95 masks have actual bruising from the very tight mask contact, and are far more uncomfortable. Hairdressers are community leaders that can set the standard and fly the flag. Please, fly it for safety and for the reputations of your salons. Don’t let your guard down! HERE are the EOHCB protocols that must be followed in salon.

The vision for the Über Luxus collection was designing and creating haircut shapes and colours that are superlative personality statements that seemingly integrate form and function. Exquisite placement and colour melds that belong to a category all of their own, the seamless integration of exotic patterns that we see today on material and colours that you would normally see in precious metals and gemstones applied with state-of-the-art techniques is the Hallmark of Flaunt Collection. The approach: a physical articulation of a concept, a series of thoughts, a critique, a point of view Working towards striking and distinctive shapes and unparalleled craftsmanship. Über Luxus Collection becomes imbued with the unique personality of their owners.

Well, what a year that was! It started off reasonably well, with most of us looking forward to "twenty plenty", even though we had heard about the Corona Virus rearing its head in other countries. Funny how one always thinks "it won't happen to us"!? Well, we were seriously mistaken this time. What an absolute mix of emotions and experiences lockdown brought us! There was desperation as a result of no income. There was bonding with family members from spending the whole day every day at home. There was, of course, also the sad opposite in households who experience domestic abuse. There was anticipation each time our president made a speech. Many people and companies found out that it is possible to work successfully from home. And even now, we're not quite out of lockdown yet, with strict rules regarding mask-wearing and social distancing still in place. As a result of the pandemic, we also had to call off our annual customer trip, Destination 2020, and have it postponed to 2021. We're going to the same venue, Spain's Canary Islands, in September 2021. Head over to our website for more information. It is a spectacular event to which everyone is welcome, whether you're a customer of MHB or not. You will mix with stylists from all over the world, see top international artists, and have time to relax and enjoy the luxurious Lopesan Resort and Gran Canaria island. I promise you will not regret it. We have once again been blessed to support the Tehilla Community Collaborative in Elsies River, who has 1779 beneficiaries through their various programs. These include a haven for the homeless, destitute, abused, mentally ill, frail, neglected women and children as well as the elderly. At capacity, they look after 110 adults and 15 children. They also run a much-needed substance abuse rehabilitation program. Outside of the facilities, they feed 500 – 700 people in the community per day. Most of these beneficiaries are patients on TB treatments, ARV's and treatments for chronic illnesses. We believe that every little bit of support that we can give to our communities has the ability to change someone's life and provide them with hope or ignite that spark which they require to create their future. We encourage you to find a worthy cause in your area to support with whatever you can. Who knows, you might change someone's destiny, and that is the best gift we can give anyone. A huge thank you to all of you who have supported us during the past year. As tough as the year has been, at least ours is a service which there will always be a demand for, and nobody can take that away from you. My heart goes out to those millions who are unemployed. If I may step on my soapbox for a moment. There is only one way for us to save our country from the corrupt and incompetent elements in the ANC government, and the race-baiting EFF, and that is for all peace-loving South Africans to stand up, stand together and demand change, and vote them out in the next election. Much is being done by various citizen movements to pull people together to make this happen. Move One Million is one such organisation. Whether it's this one, or another, let's get involved, let's make the change happen. My wish for everyone is a peaceful holiday season. I hope that you will find time to relax and spend time with your families, even if only during the public holidays. I know many salons will be staying open as long as they possibly can to make up for the lockdown period. Despite all the problems that we're facing in this beautiful country of ours, I'm looking to 2021 with optimism. We've made it through a very tough year economically, so we know what we're capable of, and have all learnt to work a lot smarter. Let's tackle 2021 head-on and do it! See you next year! Yours sincerely Chris Stofberg Managing Director Modern Hair & Beauty

“Your hair is your crown and whatever you choose to do with it should never make people feel like they have a right to make a judgement about who you are and what you’re capable of.” Boity describes her hair journey as a rollercoaster ride. She went from never wearing weaves or wigs, to eventually having to when she got into the entertainment industry. But as time went on, she ultimately realised that she needed to seriously care for her natural hair. Her biggest hair struggle – so to speak – was her hairline and the pressure of having ‘laid edges’. “Sometimes you fall into those pressures and start feeling like you can’t show your hair because it’s not up to the standard of what the world says it should be. For me, it’s always been the hairline because that’s the one thing that people used to comment on. ” Boity’s experiences taught her not to judge people according to their hair choices and not be phased by the judgement passed on to her. "All those weird things about something as natural as hair are unnecessary and one’s personhood should never be deduced simply for their choice in hair,” she says passionately. A Product She Truly Believes In Boity Haircare is a premium range of haircare products specifically formulated for African hair. She wanted to make sure that most issues black women experience with hair products would be solved with this range. Making sure that after using a product, that the shampoo doesn’t strip 4C hair of its moisture but that it seeps into the scalp and leaves hair feeling soft and manageable even before using conditioner. “This particular journey was as personal as personal can be – I wanted to make sure that these were products that catered to my kind of hair’s specific needs.” All products are paraben free, sulfate free, cruelty free, eco-friendly and proudly South African To become a Retail Stockist of the Boity Haircare Collection contact sales@haloheritage.com Follow us on Social media Twitter: https://twitter.com/HaloHeritageSA Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HaloHeritageZA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/haloheritage Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/haloheritage/ Website: https://haloheritage.com Pinterest: https://za.pinterest.com/haloheritage/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAjMqyQmBCYlEkN2KniD-tg
