Inspection summary

SALARA BEAUTY has been inspected 3 times by Ottawa Public Health since March 25, 2025. The most recent inspection, on April 2, 2026, recorded 10 infractions.

1 of 3 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 10 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Food source, labelling and allergens and Protecting food from contamination.

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 3 times on April 2, 2026. For example: All single-use disposable covers that are applied to reusable equipment are discarded after each use.

  • 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 once on April 2, 2026. For example: All products used for a service are stored and dispensed in a manner that prevents contamination.

  • 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 on April 2, 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on April 2, 2026. For example: Every operator shall keep records as required.

  • 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 April 2, 2026. For example: Client is given appropriate information about invasive services.
