👉 Nail fumes, also known as acrylic fumes or solvent fumes, are a common occupational hazard in industries where acrylic nails and related products are used, such as nail salons, beauty shops, and manufacturing facilities. These fumes are produced when acrylic nails, polishes, and adhesives are applied, dried, or sanded. The chemicals in these products, including formaldehyde, acetone, and various solvents, can evaporate into the air, creating a toxic environment. Prolonged exposure to these fumes can lead to respiratory issues, headaches, dizziness, and even more severe health problems over time. Proper ventilation, protective equipment, and adherence to safety guidelines are essential to mitigate the risks associated with nail fumes.
