Beauty Salons, Tattoos and Piercings

If you are planning to get any beauty or body art services, such as hairstyling, waxing, tattoos, piercings, etc., it is important to choose a safe and clean facility.

Before visiting a personal services provider, check their most recent Huron Perth Public Health (HPPH) inspection report.

Inspection reports for personal service settings in Huron Perth are available through the Check What We Inspect website.

All personal service settings are required to display Check What We Inspect signage at the entrance to the business. This signage tells you that the premises has been inspected by HPPH. 

If you have any questions or concerns about a personal service setting, you can contact us. All public complaints are investigated.

A public health inspector will investigate the complaint confidentially and will notify you of the findings and outcomes of the investigation.

HPPH regularly inspects all personal service settings in Huron Perth to make sure they follow all health, safety and cleanliness requirements. You can find these requirements in Ontario Regulation (O. Reg.) 136/18: Personal Service Settings.
