It's written to imply that immigrant-run mall shops are wicked and evil, and you should ONLY go to expensive Aveda-type salons staffed by white folks in order to wisely use your money to save your health, the planet, and oppressed young women of color.

I didn't get that at all. I understood it to say "Don't use these products or support salons that allow overexposure of their workers to these products. And if you don't know, ask."

Which, IMO, is a good policy in general. If you don't approve of how a business treats employees, don't patronize them. This is why I don't eat at several restaurants in town anymore, and why I don't shop at certain stores.
