Salons can transmit infections

Beauty Salons can contribute to and cause the spread of various bacterial infections including:

1) skin and eye infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus.

2) Viral infections like hepatitis B & C, herpes, and AIDS.

3) Chronic fungal infections like dermatophytosis and parasitic infections like hair lice.

Infections from tools: If one customer has some skin infection like dermatophytosis, the tools used may get microbes from here and may transmit to the next customer if not disinfected before use.?

In case of minor injuries to the customer with salon tools like abrasive metal tools used in pedicures sometimes cause bleeding and can transfer blood-borne infections particularly if are not sterilized between use.?

Literature shows the role of salons in spreading?hepatitis B?and?C, Many nail salons?do not follow efficient sterilization or disinfection sterilization protocol.

Through Contaminated water or water bottles: Pseudomonas is many times present in potable water. Salons use plastic bottles for water spray.?

The organisms like Pseudomonas develop biofilms in bottles if they are not decontaminated regularly. The organisms are regularly released from biofilms?

Here is the solution

These types of infection transfer can be stopped if?

• The tools are disinfected with Algard R82?
• The water and water bottles are decontaminated with Sanosil W10
• The water used in the spa also should be decontaminated with Sanosil W10
• Hands are sanitized by Algard Hand Sanitizers
