Hi everybody. Our salon in New Jersey was visited by a woman who received a cut, color and style for her hair . After the service, she told my staff that she forgot her pocketbook in the car and left to get it. She never returned. A fellow salon owner posted a photo of the woman and it appears to be the same freeloader my staff serviced earlier. My cousin owns a salon in New York City and she says it is worse there and that fraud and failure to pay and shoplifting are rampant.
What do I need to do if the police catch this woman to get our money back? What kids of actions can we take to prevent it from happening? I really don't want to require large deposits prior to service. And even having them might not cover the service. Can I require people to have an official ID that must be presented when they enter the salon?
