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.

  • Food source, labelling and allergensHigher risk

    Products used on clients must come from approved sources, stay in their original labelled containers and be thrown out when they are expired or contaminated. Unlabelled products make it impossible to know what a client is being exposed to.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on August 27, 2026. For example: Equipment and instruments that are designed for a single use or made of a material that does not withstand cleaning and disinfection or sterilization are discarded immediately after they are used

  • 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 August 27, 2026. For example: Multiple use non-critical and semi-critical equipment/instruments are cleaned and disinfected after each client and as often as necessary to maintain in a sanitary manner

  • 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 2 times on August 27, 2026. For example: Compliance with reprocessing sinks requirements.
