Patch Test Record Template for Beauty Therapists: What to Record and Why
Updated: 6 hours ago
A patch test is only useful if you can show you did it. A clear patch test record protects your client and your business, and it takes a minute to complete when you have a template ready.
What to record
Note the client's name, the date, the product tested, where it was applied, the result after the recommended time and who carried out the test. Add a line for any reaction and what you advised.
Why it matters
If a client ever has a reaction, a dated, signed record shows what you did. Many insurers expect patch testing for certain treatments, so check what yours requires.
Keep it consistent
Use the same format every time so nothing gets missed. A fillable PDF means it is always legible and easy to store with the rest of the client's record.
A quick note
This is general information, not legal advice. Check what applies to you with your insurer, your local authority and, for data protection, the ICO.
