An Ohio licensed manager must be present in an open salon at all times, except:

• A. For a period of 60 minutes two times a day
• B. When the salon is closed
• C. During lunch breaks
• D. When a substitute manager is present

Answer: (A)

In Ohio, a licensed manager must supervise an open salon to ensure safety, sanitation, and compliance, but there is a defined allowance for brief, scheduled absences. The specific exception allows the manager to be away for two blocks of 60 minutes each day while the salon remains open. This provides a controlled, time-limited break period without leaving the shop completely unsupervised. The other options describe situations that aren’t the standard allowed absence: the salon being closed means supervision isn’t required because services aren’t happening, having a substitute manager covers the supervision role, and lunch breaks aren’t the formal, defined exception by itself. So the best choice is the two 60-minute periods.
