Hairdressers in Belgium will be allowed to reopen as of 13 February, according to the latest information from the consultative committee meeting.
The news - which was already expected - has been confirmed to local media, and the Belga news agency.
The topic of reopening hairdressers had been a key discussion point of the meeting, as politicians expressed a desire to make it happen, against the advice of the GEMS expert group.
Other non-medical contact professions are also allowed to reopen, but not until 1 March.
No information on special measures -0r if there will be any - are available at this time.
