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 9 times across 6 separate inspections, most recently on October 9, 2026. For example: Floors, walls, ceilings, fixtures, surfaces and furniture are in good repair, easily cleanable, of a smooth and impermeable material and maintained in a 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 once on May 29, 2026. For example: Every person who provides a personal service performs hand hygiene as appropriate.

• 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 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on September 11, 2026. For example: Equipment/instrument(s) are maintained in good repair and in a sanitary condition.

• 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 May 29, 2026. For example: Personal service workers performing a service obtain and document the name and contact information of the person seeking the service.

• 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 across 2 separate inspections, most recently on November 24, 2025. For example: Disinfectants are used as per manufacturer's instructions.
