Abstract: (2 Views)
Background and Purpose: A hair salon is one of the most important public places where attention to hygiene standards is crucial, as neglecting hygiene issues and engaging in unprofessional activities such as tattoos and body art pose a potential threat to the health of community members. The salon is defined as a place where only beauty and grooming activities are performed, and the staff working there have no right to interfere in medical matters at all. In this study, the hygiene conditions of women's beauty salons in the city of Dehloran, located in the Ilam province, have been examined.
Materials and Methods: The study was conducted descriptively and cross-sectionally using a census method that included all women's hair salons in the city of Dehloran. Data collection utilized the women's beauty salon health inspection checklist from the Ministry of Health, Treatment, and Medical Education, with form code 920318/142 from the Center for Health, Environment, and Work. The checklist was completed in collaboration with an environmental health expert using direct observation methods. After finalizing the checklist, the collected data were analyzed with Excel software.
Results: The results showed that out of the 72 salons surveyed, 23.61% of the salons lacked proper ventilation in terms of building hygiene, and 31.94% were without first aid kits. In terms of personal hygiene, 33.33% of hairdressers lacked health cards, 41.67% lacked public health training certificates, and 38.89% lacked appropriate work uniforms.
Conclusion: In this study, the highest compliance with the regulations was observed in the building hygiene section, while there were deficiencies in the personal hygiene of hairdressers and the hygiene of tools and equipment. Increased health inspections by environmental health inspectors could effectively improve the condition of the salons.
