What should you do if a client has blistered and chapped skin on their face and wants a shave?

When confronted with a situation where a client has blistered and chapped skin on their face, prioritizing their health and safety is essential. The best course of action is to refrain from shaving until the skin is healed. Shaving over damaged skin can exacerbate the condition, leading to further irritation, infections, or other complications. Blisters and chapped areas are indicators of skin that's already compromised, and introducing a razor could cause additional trauma and pain.

The well-being of the client should take precedence over the desire for a shave. Encouraging healing before any grooming procedures can ensure the client's skin recovers properly and minimizes the risk of further damage. This approach aligns with professional standards in skin care and client safety practices.
