Korean nail salons in New York City commodifies physical contact between nail women and customers of diverse backgrounds and this touching evokes intense feelings among nail women. Korean nail women enter into a line of work that is at first entirely unfamiliar since Korean culture generally looks disparagingly at nail salon work because it involves intimate physical contact with another person’s body. Such body work is considered shameful and humiliating, as in the metaphor “lowering oneself to cleanse another’s feet.” Polishing one’s nails with colorful enamel is also frowned upon as behavior that offends the dictates of tradition. Despite the foreign terrain of nail work, Korean women have managed to carve out a formidable wedge in the beauty industry through the establishment of nail salons. Underlying all this market activity, however, is an uneasy relationship between women working in (nail women) and women working on (customers) nail beautification. This elucidates on the conflict-laden view of body labor and nail beautification. It also examines various nail fashion preferences across spectrums of race/ethnicity, class, age, and especially ‘Afro-nail’ in order to further understanding concerning nail beautification work. Empirical evidence suggests that fashions in nail styles vary according to race and class and that these same factors are at work in assigning value to particular expressions of style.
