OSHA SETS THE STANDARD, BUT ARE THEY FOLLOWED IN YOUR SALON?

~ Joseph Kellner ~ Leave a comment

THE REAL HAIR TRUTH

Employers shall maintain any material safety data sheets that are received with incoming shipments of hazardous chemicals, and ensure that they are readily accessible during each workshift to employees when they are in their work areas.

 

The material safety data sheet includes important information about what a product contains and how the ingredients can affect a worker’s health. Salon owners and other employers must have a material safety data sheet for any of the products they use that contain hazardous chemicals. They must also make the sheet available to stylists and other workers.

Employers shall ensure that labels on incoming containers of hazardous chemicals are not removed or defaced.

 

Employers shall maintain copies of any material safety data sheets that are received with incoming shipments of the sealed containers of hazardous chemicals, shall obtain a material safety data sheet as soon as possible for sealed containers of hazardous chemicals received without a material safety data sheet if an employee requests the material safety data sheet, and shall ensure that the material safety data sheets are readily accessible during each work shift to employees when they are in their work area(s).

 

Any consumer product or hazardous substance, as those terms are defined in the Consumer Product Safety Act (15 U.S.C. 2051 et seq.) and Federal Hazardous Substances Act (15 U.S.C. 1261 et seq.) respectively, where the employer can show that it is used in the workplace for the purpose intended by the chemical manufacturer or importer of the product, and the use results in a duration and frequency of exposure which is not greater than the range of exposures that could reasonably be experienced by consumers when used for the purpose intended.

Is this really followed in your salon, do you have proper ventilation in your salon? 9 out of 10 beauty industry salon do not!

More Great Reviews for the Documentary THE REAL HAIR TRUTH!

~ Joseph Kellner

Martin Rodriguez – I agree with what you are doing for the beauty professionals I am behind you a 100% great job Joseph keep up the great work .  If your in the BEAUTY BIZ. You must watch THE REAL HAIR TRUTH
thank you JOSEPH KELLNER I agree with your movie. I have being in the beauty biz for over 30 years. ITS TIME FOR CHANGE LET’S MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Dear Joseph
Well, I feel that there are alot of stylists that don’t view what we do as a profession,rather they just perfect a few a cuts, learn one companies color line and thats it. These are the same stylists who get hung up on name brands.Its also the same stylists when working in a commision salon feel that the owner pockets the o…ther half of the income they bring into the salon.I’ve had experience with what I call prima dona stylists the ones that need everything,has to have everything, and can always do things better but never change themselves nor want to experience new things.These are the stylists manufacters bank on,they are the ones who help keep certain brands in the limelight.
I know we all at the end of the day want to make money, but I also want to know that I’m giving the best service I can. Exploring new less popular lines and trying out new techneques is what makes our profession so much fun. That also keeps our industry at a higher level. When clients can purchase the same products we use in the salon it makes our profession looked at as though it is easy and anyone can do it. I find that very embarassing. Its like doctors with all the ads for different meds. I guess the manufacters want us to right down all the meds that fit our ailments and give the doctor the list and tell him to write the scripts without any exam or diagnosis.
I couldn’t agree more about not carrying any lines that can be purchased out side a salon.
I also agree about having schools being held to higher standards.
I know I’m been going on and on.
Hope your having a wonderful day!

Joseph, thank you for sending my DVD’s!! I am watching now and I must say that I agree with the premise of the documentary. Like you I am passionate about my industry and I love hairdressers. My 38 year career has dedicated to hairdressers. I am a fo…rmer salon owner, distributor, educator and school owner. If you are ever in Chicago please come by and say hello. I think you will have a very different view of Paul Mitchell Schools.
Thanks so much for caring about hairdressers!

Dear Joseph
I finally had time to sit down and watch your DVD and have alot of thoughts to share with you. It was very informative and created some questions for me also, my biggest question is how can you work in a industry, that works against you! That does not support you, …or will not help you as a entrepenaur? Good film you need to make the next film for outside the community of your industry. This was real! Unlike you television based hair shows we see every week. Keep at them Joseph! You did a good job with the presentation. toni couse
 
Hi Joseph,
Thanks to Joseph Kellner for this honest and hard-hitting documentary that exposes yet another ugly side of the beauty industry — the oppression of beauty industry workers and the unfair practices the big companies are using to sell products. Everyone who works in or vi…sits hair salons should see this film!
I appreciate your work and look forward to speaking with you about your next film.
Best wishes,

Hi Joseph,
I am a HUGE fan!!! Thank you for exposing this for what it is. Even as a global Art Director for a manufacturer, I think what you are doing is amazing. Please keep doing what you do, it is so important that you get your message out, you have a great voice and vision. If …there is anything I can do please let me know!!
Best,

Roxanne Longstone – Wow !!! A standing ovation.. Job well done ! I loved it and encourage everyone in our industry to watch this video. Don’t stop here, let the truth be herd !Maybe if enough stylist watch this it will sink in to get those diverted products off their shelves
 
Let me just start out by saying that I am not in the hairstyling/beauty industry but sat down to watch this DVD with my sister who is considering it as a career. Wow, We got an entire education or should I say the TRUTH of the business, in just under two hours. Having no knowledge o…f this industry I found this to be a must for anyone considering a career in this field. My sister found the information to be so valuable in order to set up the correct game plan for her new business. I think this DVD would be just as important for everyone who is already in the industry but they have their “blinders” on. Thanks so much to Jotovi Designs for stepping out of the box to let people know the real truth.

Robert Lobetta Interviewed For The Documentary “THE REAL HAIR TRUTH”

~ Joseph Kellner

Robert Lobetta has throughout his 35-year career in the hair and beauty industry traveled a long journey. Robert has worn many hats over the years and in every area he has become an expert in each field. Starting out sweeping floors in salons in his early teens, to hosting shows and lectures. His job description is enigmatic. He has been a hair stylist, a salon owner, a product creator, a marketer, a teacher, a public speaker, a photographer, a director and an artist, and this personal journey has brought him to where he is today. Robert has been called a genius, the most creative hairdresser of his time. He has through his imagination and imagery expressed the essence of brands and created a culture that people want to be associated with.
Lobetta’s vision of the future of the industry was becoming more apparent and he realized that he needed to free himself from corporate life and embark on a journey of discovery, which has brought him to where he is today. His vision comes from the heart, it’s about his love of hair, the love of the cause, of the principle, of the idea, of the future he is trying to create, the love of the people that he serves, and the people who serve him.
