Nail technicians are key people to have on your side when it comes to your nail care. Not only do they know how to manicure your digits, but they’ll also know how to safely prevent damage from any foreign substances. That being said, salon quality can vary wildly. They work closely with their manufacturers to ensure their products are safe and effective, but not everyone has that luxury.

These should be taken to heart — especially because they highlight the important (and common) things to watch out for. Below, find out how to tell if your nail salon is safe for you, how to research your salon, and what to do if they’re not.
