The Nail Salon Industry

Nail Damage

Frequent manicures can lead to damage of the nail plate and the surrounding skin from the tools and application methods used by nail technicians.

Chemical Exposure and Allergic Reactions

Nail salons use acrylics, gels, and polishes, which contain toxic chemicals such as formaldehyde, toluene, and phthalates. These chemicals can cause allergic reactions, respiratory problems, and long-term health issues.

UV Exposure

Nail lamps used for curing gel polish emit UV radiation, which can lead to skin damage and increase the risk of skin cancer.

Cost & Time

Frequent visits to nail salons can be expensive, and many people end up spending more money than they can afford.

A typical visit to the salon can range on average from 45mins to 1.5 hours depending on the provider and type of work being requested.
