1. What is infection prevention in salons?

Salons present a unique infection-control challenge: intimate skin contact, potential blood exposure (razor nicks, cuticle cuts), and sequential client service with shared tools^[1]. The bloodborne pathogen chain (hepatitis B/C, HIV) and the contact-transmission chain (ringworm, impetigo, head lice) require different but complementary controls. In any country, the public health authority issues sector-specific infection-prevention guidance^[2].
