ozone kills viruses bacteria and fungus so if there were  anything it should have been destroyed by the ozone.

No, HIV dries up really fast. Hepatitis can survive for 3 weeks on surfaces if it isn't cleaned off. Bacteria can't survive when dry. But they have strict requirements to clean in between people so I wouldn't worry about it.

If the salon is licensed they have to follow strict guidelines to clean their instruments properly. All the technicians are licensed as well and know how to maintain and clean their instruments. Was this salon licensed?
