4. Dialogue

🦉 & 🐥 & 🐮 — Salon operator dialogue

🐥
Piyo: Poppo, is UV-C sterilisation enough for salon tools?
🦉
Poppo: UV-C at 254nm for 10+ minutes kills surface organisms, but it only sterilises what the light touches. For tools with crevices — scissors hinges, clipper blades — chemical immersion or autoclave is the gold standard.
🐥
Piyo: How do I know my autoclave is actually working?
🦉
Poppo: Weekly biological indicator test — a spore strip that confirms kill. If it fails, every tool processed since the last pass is suspect.
🐮
Mou: Strong, kind, beautiful — sterilisation is the invisible promise between you and every client who sits in your chair.
