1. What is salon facility sanitation?

Facility sanitation creates the baseline environment on which all other hygiene measures rest^[1]. International best practice divides salon spaces into zones: high-touch (chairs, basins, door handles), medium-touch (mirrors, product shelves), and low-touch (floors, walls). In any country, health inspectors evaluate sanitation using a standardised checklist^[2].
