It offers effective sterilisation while being cost-effective in terms of water usage. Client Education: Showing clients sterilised tools in pouches and explaining the sterilisation process can enhance trust and loyalty. Clients appreciate knowing that their safety is prioritized. Training and Standards: There is a need for ongoing education in sterilisation practices within the beauty industry. Training programs can help professionals understand the importance of proper sterilisation and how to implement it effectively.
