Questions for the owner
- Does the studio require a doctor's note for recent surgery or for blood pressure medication? Please confirm your policy and any local rules.
- Which oil or lotion should Sean use for this client, since she asked for no scent and has an almond allergy?
- Should the front desk collect the emergency contact and consent signature before Sonia goes back?
