The beauty business poses a risk of occupational exposure to biological agents since beauty treatments are conducted directly on the skin of customers, and clients may be carriers of pathogens and opportunistic microorganisms. Consequently, beauty treatments carry a risk of infection. Within the scope of this investigation, a survey was conducted to personnel working in beauty salons in Laoag to determine the extent of their familiarity with the subject matter. The research chose eight (8) beauty salons in Laoag City, each of which had at least five (5) staff and carried out the selection process in a manner analogous to a census. The findings suggest that staff at beauty salons have a relatively low degree of awareness of the factors that contribute to salon-related diseases as well as the indications and symptoms of such conditions. On the other hand, their knowledge of the different methods of transmission was rather sketchy at best. This demonstrates the need to implement health education and awareness programs with the goal of lessening the chance of unfavorable health consequences. The results of this study indicate that staff working in beauty salons know relatively little about the factors that might lead to salon-related diseases as well as the indications and symptoms associated with those factors. On the other hand, their understanding of the different modes of transmission is limited at best. When working in a salon, staff need to be aware of the potential health hazards they face, including the possibility of getting infectious diseases.
