491: Hidden Nail Salon Dangers, Risks of Gel Nails, and What To Do About It with Lanna Dang
Friday, 7 November, 2025
Did you know that the paraffin wax from your last pedicure might have been peeled off someone else's feet and reused on yours? Gross, and…the health surprises lurking in the nail salon go FAR beyond that. Lanna Dang, owner of Pampr'd Soul in Scottsdale, completely transformed how I think about nail salons. Growing up inside her parents' nail salon, Lanna witnessed practices that would make your skin crawl: from tools that are barely sanitized between clients to name-brand polish bottles being secretly refilled with toxic knockoffs. She reveals why that "healthy" dip powder is actually acrylic in disguise and explains how the chemicals in your regular gel manicure could be disrupting your hormones and contributing to that stubborn weight gain and exhaustion you can't shake. We dive deep into what HEMA, formaldehyde, and toluene are really doing to your body, especially as a midlife woman already dealing with hormonal chaos. She shares the critical questions you need to ask before your next appointment and reveals cleaner alternatives that won't force you to give up your beloved nail routine. It's time to make informed choices at the nail salon, especially when your toxic load might be the missing piece of your health puzzle. Whether you're a gel devotee or acrylic enthusiast, this conversation will forever change how you approach your nail care routine.
