Dialogue
🦉 & 🐥 & 🐮 — Salon operator dialogue
🐥
Piyo: Poppo, how should a salon prepare for an unannounced inspection?
🦉
Poppo: The only preparation that works is permanent readiness. If your daily checklist is completed, your SDS binder is current, your sterilisation logs are filled in, and your staff qualifications are on file โ an unannounced visit is just another Tuesday.
🐥
Piyo: What do inspectors look for first?
🦉
Poppo: Licences displayed, sterilisation evidence, sharps disposal, and staff hand hygiene in practice. They watch what happens, not what's written. The gap between your manual and your behaviour is what they find.
🐮
Mou: Strong, kind, beautiful โ a salon that's always inspection-ready is a salon that's always client-safe.
