What should you ensure about the cape when putting it on a client?

When putting a cape on a client, it is crucial to ensure that it is fastened securely. A secure cape prevents clothing from becoming soiled during treatments and protects the client's skin from products that may drip or splash. Ensuring the cape is properly fastened adds to the client’s comfort and confidence, as they can relax knowing their personal clothing is protected.

While matching the towel or using a disposable material may have their merits in certain contexts, and having an appropriately sized cape is also important for coverage and comfort, the primary focus should always be on securely fastening the cape to provide effective protection during the service. This practice is fundamental in maintaining hygiene and a professional atmosphere in any beauty therapy or aesthetician setting.
