Allow Tattoo Studios to reopen on 4th July

Petition Details

Allow tattoo studios to re open on the 4th July. We should be in the same category as barbers and hairdressers as we all work at the same distance. Tattoo studios have to follow clinical guidelines to be able to trade and are one of the most clinical environments to be in.

Additional Information

Tattoo studios are one of the most clinical environments. We always wear PPE Even before the pandemic. They have to hold a licence from the local council showing we are following clinical guidelines. We use disinfectant before and after all clients anyway and studios are deep cleaned each day. This is all before coronavirus even became an issue. All artists wear PPE when tattooing also. Opening a pub with a public toilet is most definitely a bigger risk to spread the disease then a tattoo studio
