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.

• 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 3 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 9, 2026. For example: Operator(s) are aware of the best practices with respect to infection control in personal service settings.

• 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 October 27, 2025. For example: Multiple use equipment/instrument(s) are cleaned and disinfected/sterilized appropriately after each client and as often as necessary to maintain in a sanitary manner.

• 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 August 4, 2026. For example: Inspection Results Signage posted and clearly visible in a conspicuous location.

• 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 across 2 separate inspections, most recently on August 4, 2026. For example: The manufacturer's instructions for equipment/instrument(s) are accessible.
