South Dakota Cosmetology Commission

Failed Inspections

The failed inspections are grouped by city, then listed alphabetically below. Select the name of the salon, booth or school of interest for a report (in Adobe PDF format) on the failed inspection. Reports on failed inspections from January 2016 forward are available below. For information on failed inspections prior to that time, contact the Commission office.

Please note: Depending on the type and extent of the violations found during a failed inspection, a follow-up inspection is not always required. In some cases, the salon, booth or school can provide documentation to the Commission to verify the abatement of an issue (such as purchasing a fire extinguisher to have on the premises, or the renewal of an expired license) to have the license reinstated without a follow-up inspection. In those cases, the table below will simply have a date in the "Date of Passed Inspection" column, with no linked report from a follow-up inspection. If there were extensive or certain vital issues (such as those related to disinfection) during the initial inspection, a follow-up inspection is required. In those cases, the "Date of Passed Inspection" in the table below will be linked to the report from the follow-up inspection. Per policy set by the Commission (see July 14, 2017 meeting minutes, Adobe PDF format), inspection failures due to expired licenses or having no first aid kit or fire extinguisher available are posted below for one year; all other inspection failures will remain listed below indefinitely.
For more information, contact the Commission office.
