Inspection summary
Chateau Lac Ste. Anne - Hair salon has been inspected 4 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since November 27, 2023. The most recent inspection, on June 11, 2026, found no infractions.
3 of 4 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 3 inspections with 3 infractions recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct infection-control risks to clients.
Recent inspections have recorded more infractions than earlier ones, so it is worth reading the latest reports closely.
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.
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 on June 4, 2026. For example:
Is reusable equipment disinfected properly?
Food safety training and certificationLower risk
Some jurisdictions require operators to complete infection-prevention training, or to hold specific qualifications for higher-risk services such as tattooing, piercing or electrolysis. These findings mean the training record was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean a client was put at risk.
Recorded once on June 4, 2026. For example:
Has the operator notified the RHA of the existence of a personal service business, including contact and location information, as well as all personal services currently offered or new personal services that will be offered for facilities and/or special events?

- There have been changes to services offered; therefore, a Personal Services Notification (PSN) are required.New services include nail services which are higher risk than hair services.
- 20. Is reusable equipment disinfected properly?
- PREEMPT RTU was indicated to be the disinfectant used on reusable clippers and nippers. Operator advised that she sprays the reusable equipment with the solution. This is not in line with the requirements for reprocessing semi-critical equipment. Information on high-level disinfectant to be provided. Discussion occurred onsite regarding proper immersion of equipment. A plastic disinfecting tray is available in the room for use.Testing of the high-level disinfectant solution with test strips will not be necessary as long as solutions are changed daily when in operation.
- 20. Is reusable equipment disinfected properly?
- OBSERVATIONS:- Non-critical equipment (touches only hair or intact skin) used at this facility for hair services. Low Level disinfectant required. BARBICIDE® is used to meet this requirement for combs and brushes.- Clippercide pressurized spray is used to disinfect clippers. Correct disinfection methods observed (immersion in BARBICIDE®); however, the concentration of the BARBICIDE® was determined to be inadequate as the solution appeared clear. Following manufacturer instructions (62.5 mL / 1L water) will give an obvious blue solution. This was corrected at the time of the inspection. Operator will acquire an appropriate measuring device for mixing the disinfectant solution daily when using the room to perform hair services.
