Evening all. I have a mature client who completed her client record card at her first visit and has been to me a few times for waxing, nails and microderm. When I was doing her bikini wax last time, we were chatting and she told me she has hepatitis C! She hadn't declared this on her record card (although there isn't a specific question for this) but I was a bit alarmed especially as she bleeds during a bikini wax. Obviously I don't double dip and all cotton pads etc are disposed of. Nail instruments etc are all sterilised in Mundo. The thing is, my salon is in my home, and I made the mistake of telling my husband what had happened. He is furious and has demanded that I don't accept her for any further appointments. She is a lovely lady who was infected through a blood transfusion years ago. I feel I'll be discriminating if I refuse her an appointment and I don't think my husband or family are at any risk, but obviously I have to consider my husbands view on it!
Any advice as to how to handle this please? Legally how do I stand?
