What MUST a new client do before their first service is performed?

• A. Pay a deposit
• B. Sign a service agreement
• C. Complete a consultation card
• D. Provide a medical history form

Answer: (C)

The main idea being tested is gathering essential client information before any service to keep it safe and properly tailored. Completing a consultation card collects the client’s goals for the service, any health issues or allergies, medications, and emergency contact, and it records consent to proceed. This information lets the technician assess for any contraindications and plan the service safely, ensuring the products and techniques used are appropriate for the individual. In many salons, medical history details are included on the same form, making the consultation card the standard pre-service step. Deposits or separate service agreements aren’t universally required before the first service, and a separate medical history form isn’t necessary if the needed information is already captured on the consultation card.
