Chair rental and client tips for Boulder City

• Note skin conditions, allergies, and declined services on the client's record.
• Keep a written single-use blade policy and post it at each station.
• Have a policy for redoing cuts so a complaint has somewhere to go besides a claim.
• Write the insurance each chair renter must carry, with limits and the shop as additional insured, into the rental agreement.

None of this replaces insurance, but it keeps small problems small. Insurers may ask whether you use written rental agreements and keep sanitation logs.
