Excellent levels of hygiene in hair and beauty salons are essential to their success. Keep your salon’s rating sparklingly clean with our range of medical-grade PPE, first aid provisions, and other hair and beauty salon consumables.
In accordance with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, employers and employees in beauty salons are legally obliged to provide a ‘duty of care’, and take reasonable steps to keep their clients, contractors, and team members safe from harm. The same applies to self-employed beauticians, estheticians, and stylists.
Hair and beauty salons can be a minefield of potential risks if not handled in the proper way. Sharp tools like scissors and razors, and potentially harmful chemicals are a regular feature in a day’s work, along with the risk of cross-contamination between people in a high physical contact environment.
Ensure you have taken all the steps necessary in your risk assessment to prevent and minimise health and safety risks by providing your salon with the best protective equipment.
Our PPE is approved to meet British Standards and used in medical settings. We’re the first choice of many hair and beauty salons to make sure their staff and customers have maximum protection.
Long before Covid-19, PPE was an everyday essential on the beautician supplies list. Under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH), all employers and employees in hair and beauty salon settings must take appropriate steps to protect against hazardous substances.
Ingredients in products like nail polish and hair dye not only have short-term harmful effects like dizziness and headaches, but pose long-term risks including dermatitis, organ damage, and even complications in pregnancy. Keeping yourself and your team safe from everyday chemical use is vital and can be achieved by using the correct personal protective equipment.
As of December 2021, it is the law in the UK that face masks must be worn in shops, including premises that provide personal care and beauty treatments.
FFP3 Valved Respirators afford protection from breathing in particles and aerosols and can be used to protect the wearer from inhaling harmful chemicals and pathogens. Type IIR Face Masks help to minimise potentially harmful particles the wearer breathes out. They are the minimum requirement to be worn indoors in salons to protect those around you.
Face Visors are an alternative to face masks that can be worn by beauticians and stylists. The face visor is made of a clear shield and offers a more comfortable option for some for longtime wear.
We stock Vinyl Gloves for maintaining excellent hygiene and minimising the risk of cross-contamination. Vinyl gloves are a good choice for beauticians and estheticians when carrying out services like the application of semi-permanent make-up, waxing, manicures and pedicures, and facials, as well as handling cash and cleaning the salon.
More heavy-duty Nitrile Gloves are latex-free, less likely to puncture, and resistant to some more corrosive chemicals. Nitrile Gloves also offer better grip in wet and dry procedures. Nitrile Gloves are a favourite among hairdressers, allowing stylists to get good purchases on hair and scissors when working, as well as protection from corrosive products like hydrogen peroxide.
Keep uniforms clean and free from harmful materials and germs by using disposable aprons that can be changed between services. Our Disposable Aprons are made from polythene and can be easily worn over normal uniforms and disposed of after procedures, minimising the chance of transmitting germs and chemicals to other staff and customers.
Disposable aprons also protect uniforms from wear and stains, making it easier for beauticians and stylists to stay looking professional and presentable all day.
The Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 require owners of beauty and hair salons to make sure immediate first aid attention is possible through the provision of first aid equipment, facilities, and personnel. This means that all beauticians and stylists must have access to a Beauty Salon First Aid Kit at all times. Self-employed stylists and beauticians should also keep a first aid kit with their equipment.
The Steroplast Workplace First Aid Kit is British Standard BS8599-1 certified to meet UK requirements for first aid provision in the workplace. The first aid kit comes in three sizes depending on your requirements, with refills also available when it needs restocking.
In an environment where minor cuts are sometimes inevitable, having a good supply of plasters at the ready keeps business flowing while maintaining a hygienic environment.
Sterostrip Hypoallergenic Washproof Plasters are waterproof and gentle on sensitive skin. Order boxes of up to 500 in 10 assorted sizes and shapes, including ergonomic knuckle and fingertip plasters.
Eyewash is an essential piece of first aid equipment for beauty salons that perform treatments near the eye in case of contamination. Our Sterowash Eyewash comes in a 500ml bottle and is made of saline solution PH Eur 0.9% w/v specifically designed to ensure no irritation when absorbed.
Accessible and easy to use cleaning products help to keep a salon setting hygienic with minimal disruption to busy workflows. We offer high-quality essential consumables for salon hygiene.
Sanitising hands regularly and offering clients hand sanitiser helps to keep germs to a minimum in a salon. Make sure hand gel is available at the entrance and at other key areas such as the reception desk and on nail bars.
The Stero-san Hand Sanitiser Gel 500ml comes in a domed bottle that won’t tip over. Stereo-san hand gel is made with emollients to moisturise skin and stop it from drying out.
Keeping the salon environment clean and tidy in between services is made easier with disposable PDI Sani-Cloth Detergent Wipes. The wipes are impregnated with a low-strength detergent making them ideal for surface cleaning of chairs, tables, nail bars, and treatment beds.
Disposable Couch Roll is useful for keeping treatment beds clean and reducing cleaning time between uses.
Cleaning makeup off of faces before treatments, and wiping the skin clean following treatments like waxing, and eyebrow and eyelash tinting requires the use of purpose-made disposable wipes. PDI Hygea Hands & Face Personal Washcloths are gentle on delicate facial skin and skin that has just received treatment. They are dermatologically tested, hypoallergenic, and contain moisturising properties.
Disinfecting non-invasive tools, equipment, and surfaces is necessary before some treatments. PDI Sani-Cloth AF Universal Wipes are effective against bacteria and germs, without the harsh side-effects of alcohol-based wipes. Our alcohol-free wipes are gentle on the skin, making it easier for staff to use them regularly, and don’t give off an overwhelming smell of alcohol. They are also much less flammable than alcohol-based wipes.
We also stock Cotton-Tipped Applicators in packs of 100 for precision applications and removal of cosmetics, and hypoallergenic Sterotape Microporous Tape.
