Is sterilization impractical method of infection control in a salon?

Sterilization can be impractical in a salon setting due to the time, cost, and complexity involved in the process. Most tools used in salons, such as combs and scissors, can often be effectively disinfected using approved methods rather than requiring full sterilization. Additionally, the high turnover of clients and the need for quick service make sterilization logistically challenging. Instead, salons typically focus on thorough cleaning and disinfection to control infections effectively.
