Protecting your Prescott service menu

• Check wax temperature on your own wrist before every application.
• Photograph extensions at installation and give written aftercare.
• Strand test before major lightening and note processing times.
• Tell your agent before adding a new service, especially anything advanced.

If your Prescott salon sells products under its own name, read private-label products and liability before launching the line.
