Hairdressing procedures can lead to infection if appropriate care is not taken by the operator. The operator must ensure that they do not puncture the skin with any item such as scissors, razors, combs, clippers and/or hairpins. Operators should also ensure that all of these items are cleansed in accordance as prescribed in the Department of Health guidelines. Operators should also ask their client if they have any skin lesions that they should be aware of so appropriate care can be taken.

Hairdressing establishments are required to be registered with the Council. Please refer to the Personal Care and Body Art Industry web page for further information.

For the guidelines and procedures that your body art establishment should follow, please read the General Requirements, Risk Management and Hairdressing section of the Health guidelines for personal care and body art industries.
