It’s flu season -- Did you get your flu shot? Nat & I did but Kim didn’t and she is down for the count again! Poor girl. Last week she had three clients come in with the sniffles and not feeling well, so we are sure that's where she got it.
So we made a sign, framed it, and placed it in the bathroom for all to see. Yes, we know clients don’t read, and it is always important that we vocalize our communication to every client on our “salon rules” so we are making that effort now.
Please tell every client if they are not well how it affects us. If we're sick it affects every client we have to rebook, and that can be lots! We are a breeding meeting place for the flu because we all gather in small spaces and hold clients' hands. So be sure to wash your hands, and have the clients wash and brush their nails before every service. And if they are sick send them home with a rebooked appointment!
