Musculoskeletal disorders in hairdressing professionals stem from poor ergonomics and long work hours. Addressing these factors is crucial to prevent injuries and improve the work environment for these professionals.

Area of Science:

  • Occupational health and safety
  • Ergonomics
  • Professional practice analysis

Background:

  • Hairdressing professionals face significant musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risks.
  • These risks are linked to prolonged static postures, extended workdays, and inadequate workspace design.
  • Conventional tools and furniture may not align with ergonomic principles, exacerbating the problem.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the ergonomic and organizational factors contributing to MSDs in hairdressing.
  • To challenge the perception of hairdressing as an inherently injurious profession.
  • To advocate for a safer and healthier work environment for hairdressers.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on MSDs in hairdressing.
  • Analysis of ergonomic risk factors including posture, work duration, and workspace layout.

  • Examination of organizational aspects impacting workload and stress.
  • Main Results:

    • Sustained postures and long working hours are primary contributors to MSDs.
    • Inadequate workspace design and non-conventional furniture increase ergonomic strain.
    • The current understanding often overlooks the potential for environmental and human-centered improvements.

    Conclusions:

    • MSDs in hairdressing are multifactorial, involving ergonomic, organizational, and workload elements.
    • It is imperative to reframe hairdressing not as an unavoidably harmful occupation but as one amenable to workplace improvements.
    • Focusing on environmental and human factors can mitigate risks and enhance professional well-being.
