The primary focus of the campaign is on maintaining high standards of hygiene, public health, and the safety of young customers. The municipality reminded salon owners and employees of their responsibility to adhere to approved health requirements when providing services to children.\n\nDuring the inspections, inspectors checked the overall cleanliness of the establishments, the condition of tools and equipment, and the regularity of cleaning and disinfection procedures. They also evaluated whether workers were following proper hygiene practices while serving children. It was emphasized that all parts of the salon premises, including reception areas, service areas, equipment, and tools, must be kept clean and sanitized continuously, not just during inspection times.\n\nThe municipality underlined that hygiene measures should not be restricted to specific periods but should be maintained consistently across all facilities. Businesses that received observations during inspections were advised to address these issues promptly and continue monitoring cleaning, maintenance, and sanitation in their operations.\n\nThe campaign aims to enhance public health standards, protect children, workers, and customers, and bolster families' trust in the services offered by children's salons.",
