So Im recently qualified therapist, got my job in a spa and Im a bit torn on the double dipping situation. When we was taught in college it was ok to double dip when there was no blood. When there was spotting or bleeding then we would use a new spatula, I did training and salon experience work with this method because its "money saving" In our exam there was absolutely NO DOUBLE DIPPING whatsoever which was tought because it took a little longer.
In my work now, everyone double dips no matter who or where or anything. Because im new and we get booked up alot and im not the fastest waxer it takes me long enough with double dipping, Ive also been told that the heat of the wax in the pot kills bacteria anyway so you can double dip. So im a bit lost. I have even been pulled on the fact I was using hot wax for a bikini instead of strip wax which I wasnt shown at college anyway because the school was very particular.
Ive even been told at my work they dont like me using gloves when waxing non intimate areas and doing pedicures. But I ended up first time doing it in a back wax putting my had in a load of blood and plasma thinking this is very wrong now I wear gloves in anything except my pedicures unless the feet have anything on them.
But yeah, I would like some advice from experience people. Shall i just say screw it and never double dip again or is their certain areas i can get away with or what. I am striving to be the best but people with years of experience tell me different things who they have been taught off of some therapists with years of their experience.
thanks
