Salon Cabelo, a natural and eco-friendly hair salon in Hampshire that prides itself in offering a relaxing experience. In keeping with their core principles, the salon adopted a digital screening solution called FeverCheckerPro. The intuitive system was chosen as it automatically detects temperature readings in a non-invasive way to safeguard against the risk of COVID contagion.
As hundreds of people rush to fix their lockdown hair all over the country, salons have needed to ensure they can establish a safe environment for their customers and staff as lockdown measures are steadily eased. Since their re-opening, Salon Cabelo has received some great, positive reactions from their clients and staff members who have enjoyed a renewed level of freedom and confidence.
Louise Shailer, proprietor and Senior Director commented “we’ve taken this exceptional step to keep our staff and clients extra safe and it’s amazing how many people just love it, and it makes them feel so much better. We’ve created a beautiful, calm environment here and the FeverCheckerPro compliments this with its smart styling and almost inconspicuous temperature sensing. Everyone loves it”.
Known for its state-of-the-art technology, FeverCheckerPro is the only 4-point protection system on the market, allowing for instantaneous temperature checks, facial recognition, mask checks and vaccination checks within a split second. This effective and intelligent solution sets a new and higher standard of protection for customer experiences and for the beauty industry.
The elegant and intuitive styled unit unobtrusively greets visitors with an automatic 1 second temperature scan without interrupting the purpose of their visit. Should it detect a person with a high temperature it discretely alerts them so they can address their situation and take any necessary action such as seeking medical advice or limiting their access to the premises.
Salon Cabelo prioritised temperature screening as it’s proven to be the fastest and most immediate method of detecting Covid without having to have an LFT or PCR Covid test. By taking advantage of these efficiencies the salon was able to operate with ease and assurance during their line of work.
Over the course of the pandemic, medical science has determined that 88% of people with Covid had a high temperature as their primary symptom, which is why FeverCheckerPro is the proactive tool of choice that detects the most common denominator, before other symptoms are noticed or occur. In comparison, recent academic studies have estimated LFT Covid tests to be less than 48% accurate with a propensity towards false negatives.
Having a highly accurate temperature detection facility in place gave Salon Cabelo a screening process, that has significantly reduced the chances of people-to-people contagion in the salon. Louise Shailer wanted a solution that would ensure duty of care whilst improving business continuity, which would contribute to the avoidance of potential closure and the associated financial costs. It is impractical and onerous to provide rapid lateral flow tests (LFTs) to all visitors each time they enter the salon. Having FeverCheckerPro installed helped to provide a seamless and secure method of protecting customers who could honour their appointments as well as staff who could check themselves multiple times a day without delay between appointments.
