Protecting your Sierra Vista service menu

• Strand test before major lightening and note processing times.
• Patch test lash adhesive and tint for first-time lash clients.
• Check wax temperature on your own wrist before every application.
• Use single-use files, buffers, and applicators where state rules require them.

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