This textbook is for estheticians working in Indian salons. It covers the consultation, the sixty-minute facial and the thirty-minute cleanup, the lesions you must not extract, waxing and threading, brow shape, facial bleach and detan, hygiene, facial massage, the record card, aftercare, and the pigment risks that matter most on Fitzpatrick types IV to VI. Every chapter is practical: what to ask, what to look at, what to do, and when to stop and refer. The numbers in the book are working guides, not medical clearances. The clients in the examples are fictional. The rules are written for a small salon with shared tools, busy Saturdays, and clients who expect a visible result before a wedding. Use the book as a working reference, not as a substitute for medical training or a doctor's advice.
