Common skin problems and disorders you can come across within the salon are sometimes difficult to assess and prescribe, so we created an easy guide to the most common problems you may discover on the skin and nail whilst performing a service, what the protocol would be in salon, what the contraindications would be and actions needed to be taken, consultation advice and possible aftercare information too.
Questions we can often ask ourselves as professionals when unsure of different types of skin and nail conditions are;
- Can you still perform the service?
- Do they need to see their GP?
- Is there any aftercare advice needed?
- Are some skin problems contagious?
These visual, informational guides are to help the professional feel more confident with assessing and servicing clients with some nail and skin disorders.
Remember we are NOT medical professionals, but with this information sheet, can point our customers in the right direction if necessary and appropriate to do so.
