Even if the barber shop was open, I doubt I would ever be desperate enough to take the chance for a while; until this is over. Some mentioned the chairs, but you have to remember the "batman" cape they use to protect your clothes from the cut hair, and the clippers, comb and scissors that they use on everyone that they service. Of course, they could sanitize their tools every time they worked on a new customer, but how good does some spray actually work? Since we are supposed to keep our distance from others and stay at home as much as possible, I don't think a bit of long hair is going to matter much. I am really surprised that there is any question as to why a barber shop would close down during a pandemic. I am not even one that gets hysterical over this stuff, but I am a bit pragmatic and think that caution is prudent.
