Nail Salon Supplies--5 Things That Will Make Your Nail Salon Stand Out

Nail salons have become quite the rage over the last 5 years. And with this increased popularity has come stiff competition. Here are 5 essentials to keep in your salon to stay ahead of the competition.

Comfortable Furniture-A manicure or pedicure serves as a mini-vacation for many. And soft, inviting, and padded chairs that envelop a client can make a lasting impression. Even while waiting, the chairs should be comfortable to make the wait less of an irritation, and more like the beginning of a great time.

All Things Sensual-Let's face it, manicures and pedicures are about the tactile-how things feel. Heat moisturizers, creams, and lotions and apply gently for wonderful sensations.

Hygienic Equipment-Ultra violet lights, antibacterial solutions, and germ-killing cleaning agents for chairs, tables, and pedicure stations let clients know that they will not sacrifice cleanliness by visiting your salon. Sanitizing tools and providing proper disposal of tools that cannot be reused should be a matter of routine for every manicurist.

Wide Variety of Nails and Polishes-Having a wide variety of polishes and nails will do much to create "buzz" about your shop. Beautiful nails will do much of the advertising for you even without your customer being aware of it. Sending customers out with beautiful nails is a great way of advertising the work you do. And when they look good enough for others to ask where they were done, it's a win-win situation for everyone.

Nail Salon Air Purifier-Unfortunately, many of the products used in nail salons created chemical fumes and odors that smell very unpleasant when entering the shop. These odors not only smell bad but can cause short and long term health issues if inhaled over a long period of time.

Cleaning up the air in your shop by constantly filtering out the chemical odors and fumes is another way to put your salon ahead of the rest of the nail salons in your town. It is also a great way to recruit talented manicurists.

In order to be effective in a nail salon, an air purifier needs to be able to absorb chemicals with a carbon based filter with an additive that is effective at removing these fumes. It also needs to use a HEPA (or high efficiency particle arresting) filter that can remove fine particles generated by filing and sanding nails.

HEPA filtration will also remove normal indoor pollutants such as dust, mold and mildew spores, pollen and many other airborne particles. Continuously cleaning the air in your salon with a cleaner designed with nail salons in mind is a proactive way to improve the quality of service you provide.
