Color Me Non Toxic

Personally, I kind of like the smell of nail salons. I have to admit I would be kind of disappointed if I walked into a salon and didn't get that overwhelming whiff. The chemicals used, however, are dangerous for the patrons, so you can only imagine how dangerous it is for the workers who are exposed to it for hours. If a new method has been developed in which chemicals are not used, then it is something definitely worth trying. The workers use little cloth masks to avoid breathing in the toxins, but that's not doing anything. They are still putting their lives at risk by going to work every day.  Many of these workers are immigrants who are just trying to make enough money to get by and send home to their families. They are just trying to make a living, but that doesn't mean they need to put their lives on the line at a job that probably pays minimum wage. The men and women who work in nail salons definitely deserve better working conditions.
