She's added canisters of mace, moved to appointments only. She's considering active-shooter training for her staff. In eight years of operating nail salons, this was never on her to-do list.

''I feel like I have to be more outspoken. To tell people, ‘Don’t forget about me,’ ” Wills [the nail salon owner] says...Keeping her head down isn’t in Wills’s nature and, as she will tell you, staying quiet isn’t working.

Nail salon owner: "Masks do not shield her identity. 'My face is Asian. It doesn’t matter what I own or what I do,' she says. 'I am a target. That is the reality. I’m terrified for me. I’m terrified for my workers.' She starts to quietly weep." Reported by @kheller

Try @basecoatnails in Arts District. Their polish is organic, zero chemicals, a glass of champagne. I treated my staff for Admin Professionals Day. They pay a living wage and you won't die from fumes.
