In my first week, I accumulated about a bag size of trash. The image above highlights some items I’ve thrown away while doing nails at home. As you can see there are a lot of napkins, pink dental bibs, and a lingering presence of food. The smell of the bag itself was strong of monomer scent, which is why I tried to get rid of the bag very quickly. After each client I have to get rid of the disposable items that I used including sanding bands, tissues, files and more which makes me question how much waste I actually am contributing to. I think keeping a record of this will provide insight and make me more mindful especially when working.
