Body Art

What We Do

Tattoo, body piercing, branding and permanent cosmetic facilities are inspected to minimize the spread of disease and infection. EHS registers practitioners before body art activities can be performed.

California law states that “every person engaged in the business of tattooing, body piercing, or permanent cosmetics is required to register in the county in which that business is conducted.” View the Safe Body Art Assembly Bill No. 1168 for further information.

San Bernardino County Approved Bloodborne Pathogens Exposure Control Trainers

The Safe Body Art Act requires that Bloodborne Pathogens Exposure Control Training be conducted by a person or persons who are knowledgeable in exposure control and infection prevention in the body art setting, and who are approved by the local enforcement agency (LEA). In San Bernardino County, the LEA is the Department of Public Health, Environmental Health Services (EHS). At minimum, the training and training materials shall be specific to performing body art and consist of not less than two (2) hours of instruction. Further requirements can be found in the California Health and Safety Code Section 119307.
