Abstract

|
The volatile organic matter used to manufacture beauty supplies are absorbed inevitably through skin and the respiratory organs of the customers and especially the beauticians, and so, a continuous study is required. Xylene, pentane, acetone, isopropyl alcohol were most frequently used in general at beauty salons. When the variety and density of organic solvent of the beauty salon’s air was compared due to the salon’s characteristics (move-in type, area, average users), the degree of contamination from organic solvent showed significant interrelationship statistically, according to area. In beauty salons that ’under 30 pyeong’ had a higher average rate of organic solvent in air than the salons ’under 30-50 pyeong’ and ’over 50 pyeong’, and it is considered that this status quo took place because the variety and usage of beauty supplies have increased, which means a higher usage of organic solvent.
