Abstract The research aimed to identify the differentiation of meanings of work among beauty salon workers, considering the work contracts and the functions performed (hairdressers and manicurists), in a context of pejotização and functions’ internal hierarchy. We applied questionnaires to 171 manicurists and hairdressers with the following types of links: employee, informal, MEI pejotizado and MEI não pejotizado. The results indicated that employees perceive with greater intensity the work as a responsibility and as a way of being socially included, and more proportionality in social and financial retribution. They also indicated that manicurists experience with more intensity the characteristics of brutalization, discrimination and demand.

Abstract Background Hepatitis B is a major public health concern. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) continues to thrive in developing countries including Nigeria. Occupationally exposed persons like people working in women's beauty salon are at high risk of HBV infection and may play a critical role in the disease transmission via contaminated needles and sharps. The aim of this study therefore was to estimate HBV infection, knowledge level, occupational risk perception and vaccine uptake among people working in women's beauty salons. Also to get them screened and encourage those that are negative to get vaccinated to curb the spread of this infection. Methods This was a cross-sectional study carried out on 199 people working in women's beauty salons in Ikorodu Local government area of Lagos State. HBsAg screening using a rapid diagnostic test kit was carried out for all respondents to determine their infection status. Questionnaire which assessed their knowledge level and occupational risk perception were completed by trained interviewers and data was analysed using SPSS software. Results The result of this study showed that only 2.01% respondents tested positive for the HBsAg screening. Majority of the respondents (69.3%) have poor knowledge about HBV transmission, prevention and vaccine. While most (78.9%) of the respondents don't know their occupational risk of exposure to HBV, 9.0% rated themselves at high risk of occupational exposure. Significant association was observed between level of knowledge and risk perception (P < 0.001). The level of vaccine uptake was very poor as only 1 out of 199 respondents has taken 3 doses of HBV vaccine, 60.9%(120) have not been vaccinated. Conclusions The respondents exhibited poor level of knowledge about HBV transmission, prevention, vaccination and went about their occupation without adequate protection form HBV. Key messages Screening of people working in women beauty salon is highly imperative to identify those with infection so that they can be treated on time while those that are negative should be vaccinated. Due to the potential roles of people working in women’s beauty salon in HBV transmission, education programs and vaccine coverage policy should be adopted for people in this occupation.

With the surprising development across the cosmetic and personal care companies the re-utilization of cosmetic tools is of a common practice. Isolation and detection of human skin pathogens from 100 samples of beauty salon tools i.e., blusher brush, face sponge and wax has been done. All the samples were examined microbiologically for the contamination of Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, yeast and fungus. It was observed that the percentage of Staphylococcus aureus was higher (100% in sponge, 100% in brush, 88% in wax) in the tools than Pseudomonas aeruginosa (69.6% in sponge, 81.8% in brush and 73.5% in wax), where counts obtained for fungus was 51.5% in sponge, 30.3% in brush and 20.5% in wax. It was observed that the major cause of contamination of saloon tools is repetitive usage on all costumers without considering the hygienic conditions.  Keywords: Human skin pathogens; Cosmetic contamination; Pseudomonas in cosmetics; S.aureus in cosmetics.  © 2012 JSR Publications.

As the beauty industry grows and the level of beauty technology increases, companies must deploy highly qualified workers, among whom beauty salons are certificates obtained by the best technology hairdressers in the beauty field, but they require high technology, time and cost, but have low acceptance and recognition. Therefore, in this study, we sought to investigate the effect of beauty salon perceptions on compositional systems, job satisfaction and turnover intentions for general hairdressers, and analyzed a total of 289 copies using SPSS21.0 as a self-entry survey. First, female managers in their 40s, who earn more than 5 million won with more than seven years of experience, and secondly, the necessity, adequacy, complement, job satisfaction, and turnover were derived in a single dimension. Third, due to the effect of recognition of beauty functional systems on the composition of beauty functional testing systems, the higher the propensity for recognition, the higher the propensity for appropriateness, and the higher the propensity for subsidiarity. Fourth, job satisfaction showed a fifth definition relationship with a higher propensity for awareness, and a higher tendency for turnover meant a definition relationship with a higher propensity for awareness. As such, it is very important to raise awareness of beauty salons in order to develop the beauty industry and improve advanced technology, and efforts should be made to establish a system to revitalize the beauty salons' system on-site.
