What is not allowed while actively serving the public in a salon?

Smoking is not allowed while actively serving the public in a salon due to health and safety regulations. Salons operate under strict hygiene and cleanliness standards, aimed at ensuring the well-being of both clients and staff. Smoking can create an unpleasant environment, compromise air quality, and lead to the accumulation of odors that can negatively affect a client’s experience. Additionally, many states have laws prohibiting smoking in enclosed public spaces, which include salons.

In contrast, while eating snacks, singing, or using personal devices might be viewed as distracting or unprofessional by some, they do not directly violate health regulations and can be permitted based on the salon's policy. However, it's always essential for salon professionals to maintain a high standard of service and avoid behaviors that might disrupt the service experience for clients.
