However, Phoebe visited to the hair salon on June 22, days after the exposure.

Paddington Christo’s Pizzeria as well as Double Bay Matteo restaurant have also been added to Sydney’s exposure list.

Anyone who has been to the venues are considered a close contact and must get tested immediately.

Meanwhile, celebrity hairstylist Joh Bailey opened the doors to his first hair salon in Double Bay in 1985.

He currently owns three other salons in New South Wales in Sydney’s CBD, Bondi Junction and Bowral.

Over the past 35 years, Joh’s clientele has included Olivia Newton-John, Kylie Minogue, Eva Longoria, Elle Macpherson and most notably the late Princess Diana.

It comes as Sydney’s Covid outbreak rose to 31 on Wednesday, mostly linked to the Bondi Junction epicentre, prompting sweeping restrictions across the city.

For the next week from 4pm on Wednesday, household gatherings will be limited to five visitors and masks will be compulsory in all all indoor venues, including workplaces and gym classes.

Drinking while standing in pubs and bars will also be banned and those who live and work in seven hotspot council areas will not be allowed to leave metropolitan Sydney unless they have an essential reason.

Those council areas are the City of Sydney, Waverley, Woollahra, Bayside, Canada Bay, Inner West and Randwick – home to about 782,000 residents.

The tightened rules – which also include a 50 per cent capacity restriction for outdoor seated events – will apply to Sydney, the Blue Mountains and Central Coast and Shellharbour regions.

The majority of the new cases stem from a birthday party on Saturday in West Hoxton, in western Sydney, which included the Bondi Junction Westfield worker.

The Bondi cluster began last week after a Sydney Airport limousine driver tested positive to the highly-infectious Delta variant, which started spreading at Bondi Junction’s busy Westfield shopping centre.
