Elevated Levels of Cancer-Causing Chemicals in Nail Salons: Study
A new study has replicated previous findings demonstrating there are toxic levels of carcinogenic chemicals in nail salons and in some cases the toxic levels can be higher than those found in auto garages and oil refineries. The study examined levels of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) inside the air of nail salons.

The study then went a step further and linked the presence of toxic chemicals in salons with self-reported adverse health symptoms of salon workers.
