Since everyone will be wearing open-toed sandals soon, here's the full scoop on what we should all look out for when going to get pedicures, as well as my top toenail colours for summer.
There are too many chop shops out there and we need to be aware of these kinds of places and avoid them when getting pedi's and mani's. These places do not take the time to properly sanitize their utensils and often do not have all the required training to administer these services adequately.
Things to watch out for:
- if the nail technician washes her hands and sanitizes them before performing a pedicure.
- if all required essentials are being used
- nail clippers
- cuticle oil
- nail file
- skin file
- foot soak
- exfoliating scrub
- toe separators
- sanitizer foot spray
- these items should not be used on more than one person before being cleaned.
- if there is a form anti-bacterial procedure for all tools and sinks such as a sanitizer or
- if you see any soiled towels around the area you are being serviced
- if they use whirlpool chairs, try to avoid them.
- These hold a high risk of causing fungus as the tubs take 20 minutes for sanitation, and are rarely properly cleaned
- If you see a nail tech giving a pedicure to a woman with any visible form of disease, fungus or warts on her feet, avoid that salon.
- These procedures should never be done on infected feet as it can spread diseases to others.
