What is a client record card?

• A. To save time in records
• B. A form that documents the client's service history, preferences, and any reactions
• C. A form listing all products used in the salon in the last year
• D. A form used to schedule future appointments

Answer: (B)

A client record card is a form that captures the client's service history, preferences, and any reactions. This keeps a running record of what services were done, what products the client has used or tolerated, and any allergies or sensitivities. With that information, you can tailor future services, avoid potential reactions, and provide consistent care across visits. It isn’t just about saving time, nor is it simply a list of products used over the past year or a scheduling sheet—the card’s purpose is to document history, preferences, and safety notes for ongoing, informed client care.
