I am just posting my questions and answers to see if im answering correctly if not could you possibly help guide me in the right direction.
B.State your responsibilities and reasons for maintaining personal hygiene, protect and appearance according to accepted industry and organisational standards.
It is very important to maintain a high standard of personal hygiene and appearance as it send out a strong message about you and your occupation. Bathing daily, wearing deodrant, brushing teeth twice daily or more if eating strong smelling foods as bad odours are very offputting. Appearance is as equally important hair tied back off the face in a bun with clean short nails shows you take pride in your appearance. Wearing flat closed in toe shoes shows your following guidelines set by VTCT and the flat shoes are more sturdy than heels meaning your less likely to have an accident wearing flat shoes than heels. Washing hands before and after treatments shows you care about the standard of hygiene presented to clients so you always maintain the high standard to prevent you any client from possible cross-infection.
C.State the importance of and reasons for keeping records of treatment.
It is important to keep record of treatments because when you offer a treatment you always note down the to product range used so you and other therapist know what products the client has. If an allergy every occured you note it down so therapists are aware not to use the offending product. Also if a client ever took legal action agaisnt you, you can show evidence of the treatment, what products were used, or if there was any contra-actions.
F.State the salon's procedure for storing materials and equipment.
All chemicals are stored in a locked cupboard only available to staff if student require anything out of the cupboard they need to ask staff. All salons have a cupboard with the essentials for treatments such as eye make-up remover, cleanser, toner, moisturiser, masks, wax strips, pre wax lotion, after wax lotion, tissues, spatulas, surgical spirit, barbacide, bedroll etc. These should all be stored upright in a cool environment away from sunlight, the cupboard must be locked when not in use.
I think I have answered these correctly but as your all professionals you will probably know the answers and guide me in the right direction if im wrong. Also do you mind if i post my answers up like this for my knowledge and understanding questions and if possible someone check them over. Its okay if nobody wants to, I would ask my tutors but were off for half-term so I can't get them to check over them.
Thanks for any help in advance xxx
