Not to take anything away from the relaxing “me time” you like having at your favorite manicure salon, but if you’re not careful, it may quickly become a nightmare. Robert Urfer, the creator of Lucas-Cide Salon and Spa Disinfectant, provides five suggestions for a secure and enjoyable visit to the nail salon below.
Show up for your appointment 15 minutes early.
You may not want to stay motionless for another 15 minutes, but Urfer claims that’s the only way you can see how hygienic your salon is. Check to see whether the salon staff is taking any extra precautions to sterilize their tools and equipment. “If trash cans are overflowing and dust is collecting on shelves, do not trust that the foot baths and nail clippers are sanitary.”
