Inspection summary

5 Points Barbers has been inspected 3 times by Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit since March 4, 2025. The most recent inspection, on May 15, 2025, recorded 1 infraction.

None of the 3 inspections on record were free of infractions. No inspections are on record from the past 12 months. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Protecting food from contamination and Hand hygiene and infection control.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for clients. In personal service settings like salons, spas and tattoo studios, higher-risk findings are the ones that could spread infection from one client to the next, through broken skin, blood or instruments that were not properly cleaned and sterilized.

  • Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

    Clean and used instruments, towels and supplies must be kept apart, and products such as wax, creams and inks must be dispensed so they cannot be contaminated between clients (no double-dipping). Mixing clean and dirty items is a direct route for infection.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 1, 2025. For example: Equipment is kept in a clean and sanitary manner.

  • Hand hygiene and infection controlHigher risk

    Infection control is the core of a personal service inspection. Inspectors check that operators clean their hands and change gloves between clients, that a stocked hand sink is available, and that anything that breaks the skin is handled so blood-borne infections such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV cannot pass from one client to the next.

    Recorded 2 times on March 4, 2025. For example: Adequate handwashing sinks and supplies are provided.

  • Equipment and utensilsLower risk

    Instruments, chairs, tables and footbaths must be made of materials that can be cleaned, kept in good repair and stored so they stay clean. Single-use items such as nail files, buffers, razors and needles must be thrown away after each client.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 1, 2025. For example: Reusable equipment is cleaned and disinfected appropriately.

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, client records, sterilization logs and required signage. Client records matter because they let health officials contact people if an infection is linked to the business.

    Recorded once on May 1, 2025. For example: Inspection results are posted as requested.

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded 6 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on May 15, 2025. For example: Approved disinfectants are provided and used appropriately.
