Recommendations

- Fresh hair dye may leech from the hair into the pod due to reactions with salt water. It is recommended that they not use the pod until at least after 1 week after the dye job. Do speak with the product manufacturer and/or specialist before entering the pod.
- Certain products may contain compounds that may react/oxidize adversely with Epsom salt solution. Do ensure that the customer not bring any such products into the pods as much as possible.
