"Sanitary and Epidemiological Requirements for the Placement, Arrangement, Equipment, Maintenance, and Operating Mode of Public Utility Organizations Providing Hairdressing and Beauty Services" (SanPiN) is the most important document for beauty industry enterprises, which reflects the generalized requirements of various regulatory acts for salons and hairdressers.

Premises for a beauty salon

These rules equally apply to both entrepreneurs who carry out activities related to the design, construction and operation of the specified facilities, and to bodies with powers to implement state sanitary and epidemiological supervision. Today, Rospotrebnadzor is the main organization with which the salon owner will interact during inspections. And knowledge of the legislation will help you prevent potential problems and conflicts.

Please note that the SanPiN ig database requirements do not apply to a number of facilities that offer beauty salon services as part of their activities. Such facilities include cosmetology clinics and departments, as well as the currently popular cosmetic, massage rooms and solariums in medical and preventive institutions. The latter are the least fortunate, as they are subject to much stricter standards that are established for medical organizations.

General conditions for the placement of hairdressing salons are quite democratic. The law establishes that they can be located in a separate building, built-in and attached premises are also suitable. Hairdressing salons can be inside shopping centers, as part of consumer services enterprises, in hotels, baths, etc.

Certain restrictions are imposed on the placement of a beauty salon in a residential area. After all, in such cases it is important not to interfere with the normal life of residents. Thus, on the first floor of an apartment building it can be opened only if there is an autonomous ventilation system, as well as an isolated entrance.

Basements and ground floors of buildings, as well as shopping centers and complexes where there is no natural light, can be used to accommodate a hairdressing salon if the hygienic requirements for air exchange, lighting and microclimate standards are met. Although market operators claim that all SanPiN conditions are not difficult to meet using the latest air conditioning and lighting systems.

I have always been concerned about the issue of moving to a fundamentally new level. So that the indicators would grow not by 2 or 3 times, but by several orders of magnitude. From a thousand visits to ten thousand or from ten thousand to a hundred thousand, if we are talking about a website, for example.

And I know that such leaps are always the result of painstaking work in five areas:

Technical condition of the site.
SEO.
Collection of site semantics.
Creating useful content.
Working on conversion.
And at the same time, every manager needs an increase in sales and the number of applications from the site at the moment.

Considering that the regulations stipulate the presence of specialized plumbing equipment, pay special attention to the water supply and sewerage systems in the premises of a beauty salon.

At the same time, for example, the requirements for finishing food stores or catering establishments are much stricter than for hairdressers. In our case, the most important thing is the availability of documents confirming the safety of using finishing materials (paints, enamels, ceramic and glazed tiles, laminate, etc.) in the established manner. Also, the finishing of the premises must take into account wet cleaning and disinfection.

Depending on the range of services provided and the size of the enterprise, the law prescribes a certain area size for individual premises of a beauty salon.
