Many salon insurance policies that cover colour, or lash and brow tinting, expect a patch test before the treatment and a record that it was done. Paper forms get lost. A digital patch test form keeps the product, the test area, the date and the client’s signature on the client’s record, ready if an insurer or a client asks.
The same record works as a client consultation form: medical screening questions, UK consent wording and the client’s signature, kept with each client’s history.
Most hair colour manufacturers say at least 48 hours before the service. Always follow the instructions of the product you use.
It depends on the manufacturer and your insurer. Many ask for a test before every colour service; others accept a recent test unless the product or the client’s health has changed. Check your policy and the product instructions.
In the UK an electronic signature is generally accepted as a valid signature. What an insurer looks for is a clear record: who was tested, with which product, where, when and the result. Check your policy wording.
