The answer: Gov. Abbott announced this week that starting Friday, retail stores can now reopen on a “to-go” basis. Meaning, stores can take online orders and initiate curbside pickup.

However, for the fate of all hair and nail salons in Texas, Abbott says he does plan to reopen them “at the beginning of May” along with enhanced safety standards.

The next update from Gov. Abbott will be on April 27.

For now, hair and nail salons remain closed for the time being.
