Infection Protection
Artist & client protocol for beauty services
Updated Credentials
Prior to the shoot/project, a discussion with Production/Client/Agency team to request an additional 10 min prep time and to answer any questions/concerns from all parties. This additional time (prior to working with talent) is necessary to properly clean & disinfect all product and tools prior to makeup application and hair styling. This may affect the overall timing of the shoot. The vigilance with these cleaning & disinfecting procedures is necessary to reduce the possible risk of infection from bacteria or communicable diseases.
If prior to shoot, the talent or artist have any COVID-19 symptoms of illness, makeup & hair services cannot be executed until good health is restored. It is the responsibility of everyone to ensure they are healthy and conduct transparent communication with the team about any symptoms of illness prior to the shoot. All of our health is at risk if everyone does not abide by this simple and important step.
It should be addressed if any cuts, open wounds are present on talent or on Erica. If these injuries occurred prior to the shoot, Erica is not responsible for changing the dressing should talent need it. Talent would be responsible for changing any bandage/dressing if necessary.
Artist will be wearing the following items during the shoot and changed per talent to create a more secure and attentive atmosphere:

Product Application
I want to ensure all of my clients that I take your health and safety seriously. These safety guidelines are required in order to keep talent, production team, and myself safe. I will be following these guidelines on set. Please help me by adhering to these safety measures.
Thank you,
