To maintain compliance, what materials should not be stored in salon restrooms?

The correct answer highlights the importance of safety and hygiene in a salon setting. Chemicals and cleaning supplies contain substances that can be hazardous if improperly stored. When these materials are kept in restrooms, there is a risk of accidental exposure to both employees and clients, especially in a confined space where ventilation may be limited. Storing them away from areas used for personal care or client services ensures a safer environment.

In contrast, employees' personal belongings, towels and linens, and client records may be stored in designated areas as they do not pose the same level of health and safety risks associated with chemicals. Personal items are typically kept safe and secure, linens are essential for client services and often need to be readily available, and client records must be stored securely yet accessibly for compliance and service continuity.
