But for nail technicians, filing, shaping, and painting hundreds of nails a week is an occupational hazard, especially due to the hidden dangers of nail dust. Most people know that the chemicals used in nail salons \u2013 such as nail polish and nail glue \u2013 can be dangerous. However, nail dust, a lesser-known but equally harmful component, presents its own set of risks in the nail industry. So, what are the dangers and risks associated with nail dust hazard in the nail industry, and what can nail salons do to protect their staff? Let&#8217;s find out.<\/p>\n<h2>El peligro del polvo de u\u00f1as: El asesino invisible de los salones de manicura<\/h2>\n<p>The invisible assassin, nail dust, is a serious concern in nail salons. Filing and shaping nails, either manually or with an e-file, causes a lot of dust. It can cover equipment, workspaces, uniforms and even customers. But, more importantly, it\u2019s bad for your health. Nail dust can contain acrylic from the nails, dried glue or polish particles, human skin and even bacteria or fungus (depending on the health of the customer). Would you fancy breathing all that in?<\/p>\n<p>Inhaling this dust through the nose and into the throat can cause allergic reactions, coughing, sneezing, headaches and other issues. But the real danger is the invisible dust. Human eyesight can see down to approximately 10 microns \u2013 that\u2019s roughly the same thickness as a human hair. But most nail dust is a lot smaller than this. It\u2019s so small it can pass into the lungs and affect how they function.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, many nail technicians are at higher risk of developing breathing conditions, such as occupational asthma or even cancer. Nail dust can also settle get into the eyes, causing sores and irritations. Plus it can make existing health conditions worse, like eczema. So what can employees at nail bars and salons do to protect themselves?<\/p>\n<h2><b style=\"font-style: inherit;\">Salud y seguridad de los trabajadores<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Control de sustancias peligrosas para la salud (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hse.gov.uk\/nanotechnology\/coshh.htm#:~:text=COSHH%20is%20the%20law%20that,to%20health%20(risk%20assessment)%3B\"><b>COSHH<\/b><\/a>) Regulations is a law that requires all employers to protect their staff from harmful substances at work. Employers can prevent or reduce their staff\u2019s exposure to hazardous substances by doing risk assessments, ensuring the correct measures are in place to reduce harm to health, and planning for emergencies.<\/p>\n<p>Nail salons can help protect workers by providing certain safety equipment. This should include protective gloves and masks. Public health officials recommend nitrile gloves instead of latex or vinyl as these help guard workers from exposure to chemicals. Nail technicians should also wear proper face masks, such as the N95 mask. These filter the smallest particles and protect against chemicals, unlike paper masks<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also vital for nail bars to have good ventilation. So, employers should provide an extractor hood or down draught table for nail work, and open windows to ensure there\u2019s plenty of fresh air. Nail technicians should also wear safety glasses to protect their eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, nail technicians put their health at risk whenever they go into work \u2013\u00a0whether that\u2019s from coming into contact with dust, chemicals or even customers who are sick or have an infection. So next time you go for a manicure or pedicure, have a look around and see if the staff are wearing the correct safety gear. If they\u2019re not wearing gloves and masks and the windows are all closed, it might be worth visiting a different salon.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Polvo: limar, dar forma y pintar cientos de u\u00f1as a la semana es un riesgo laboral.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":26,"featured_media":102213,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_focuskw":"nail dust hazard","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"Nail Dust Hazards - when filing, shaping and painting hundreds of nails a week is an occupational hazard.","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-29050","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-health-and-safety","8":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Nail Dust Hazards: Perfect Nails but at What Cost?
