November 20th is Transgender Day of Remembrance, where we acknowledge and honor the trans, nonbinary, and gender-nonconforming lives cut short by anti-trans violence.

Trans and nonbinary people deserve more than equality – they deserve safety, dignity, joy, and above all else deserve to grow old.

People shouldn’t face higher risks of health issues, like reproductive harm or cancer, because they work in a salon or a cleaning business. Unfortunately, many hair care & cleaning product companies still fail to disclose harmful chemicals, such as fragrances or formaldehyde, in their products.
