Q28
What precautions apply to breastfeeding customers?
Appointments should be arranged in line with the location’s published policy and a doctor’s advice. Call ahead to explain that you are breastfeeding. Basic cleansing is usually possible, while minimally invasive services and delivery of strongly active ingredients require caution; ask a doctor about ingredients such as essential oils.
Absorption of topical ingredients through the skin during breastfeeding is limited, but a doctor should define the safety limits. Ask before proceeding with any uncertain service. Scalp care does not replace medical treatment.
