Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Salon staff should wear appropriate PPE, including gloves, masks, and eye protection when necessary, to protect themselves and clients from potential infections.

Ventilation

Ensure proper ventilation in the salon to maintain a fresh and clean environment. This helps reduce the concentration of airborne particles and odors.

Client Health Screening

Before providing services, ask clients about signs of illness, such as coughing, fever, or respiratory symptoms. If a client appears to be unwell, it is best to reschedule their appointment to prevent the spread of illness to others.

Education and Training

Train and educate salon staff on hygiene practices, including hand hygiene, equipment sanitization, and infection control protocols. Stay up-to-date with the latest guidelines and recommendations from health authorities.
