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 September 29, 2026. For example: All single-use equipment is discarded immediately after use.

• 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 3 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 29, 2026. For example: All equipment is clean and in good repair.

• 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 September 29, 2026. For example: Every operator shall keep records as required.

• 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 once on December 9, 2025. For example: Disinfectants used in a personal service setting are approved and appropriately used.
