The hairdresser can be prevented from trading if they refuse a mask. I’d have walked out.

Perhaps she's exempt from wearing a mask. And if you've had your vaccinations why does it worry you if she doesn't have a mask?

Perhaps because having both jabs still doesn’t stop you catching Covid Biscuitmuncher. I thought everybody understood that by now!

It's against the law not to wear one my hairdresser wears mask and plastic face shield .

I must admit I was shocked at the time, I didn't comment but now I'm stressed, urghh. Thanks for your response.

In a sense, if masks are no longer required after 21st June (we can hope!) it wouldn't be a problem, but I value the chats with my hairdresser, and wouldn't go to one who had very differing views to me and didn't hesitate in putting them forward!

No you’re not at all. She should be wearing a mask by law, whether she believes in it or not. It’s all very well having principles, but not when those could affect someone else, and certainly not when you’re in business serving the public. Absolutely find another hairdresser.

I was excited yesterday to be having my first haircut since the initial lockdown for Covid. As my usual local hair salon isn't up and running yet I managed to get an appointment at another salon.
The usual hand washing facility was available at the door and other than myself and the hairdresser the place was deserted so I felt secure but was a bit surprised the lady wasn't wearing any face covering, I had my mask on throughout.
Halfway through washing my hair she informs me she doesn't believe in the vaccine due to various personal reasons and regales me with tales of heart attacks and strokes after the jab!
I have had both vaccines with no ill effects as have most of my family and friends. I love my haircut but I won't go back... AIBU?
