Daria Krivonos is a researcher at the University of Helsinki, specializing in the beauty salon industry and its socio-economic implications. She recently came into the spotlight for her research project titled 'Intiimi manikyyri: femininisoitu työ, (itse-)hoiva ja rodullistetut kohtaamiset kynsistudioissa', which received a significant grant from the Finnish Academy. Krivonos has faced criticism from Finnish politician Wille Rydman, who accused the funding of being a misuse of taxpayer money. In response, Krivonos defended her research as vital for understanding the contributions of women, particularly immigrants, in the beauty industry, which is a growing global market. She argues that her work highlights the often-overlooked labor performed by these groups and emphasizes the need for academic inquiry into their experiences.
