We inspect all personal service establishments at least once a year. We also investigate all public complaints.
Personal Services Settings (Salons, Tattoos and Piercings)
As the owner and/or operator of a beauty salon, tattoo studio or other personal service establishment, you need to follow the personal service regulations outlined in Ontario Regulation (O. Reg.) 136/18: Personal Service Settings.
These regulations include what types of services are prohibited, setting requirements, inspection results and more.
Renovating, opening or adding new services
If you are planning to own or operate a personal service setting, please review the Personal Service Setting Pre-Opening Checklist [PDF] to ensure you are able to meet the requirements of O.
