Five tips for great looking nails

1. Filing is always better for nails than clipping. Clipping nails can damage the layers that make up your nails.
2. Cuticle oil and nail strengthener are essential to keeping your nails strong, beautiful, and healthy.
3. Pedicure bars are a must! Daily usage keeps your feet looking their best, but be careful not to overdo exfoliating on your calluses. Calluses are there for a reason—they protect and keep our feet healthy.
4. Always file toe nails straight, not curved, to avoid painful ingrowns. Ingrown nails can lead to infection and fungus. If you see any unusual discolorations or areas of concern, consult a physician.
5. Pampering yourself to a professional manicure and pedicure helps you to develop good nail care habits and makes your hands and feet look their best.

Why buy local?

Purchasing your hair and skin care products from local salons (not retail chains) makes it possible for us to keep our prices affordable. You also get the benefit of your personal stylist’s or aesthetician’s hands on experience. They recommend the products that are best for you and custom design a skin or hair regimen. Every product you buy in in Salon 7000 is guaranteed. If you have questions or concerns, call your stylist or stop in (with your product) and we will exchange it for a product that works for you.

Extend the life of your manicure and pedicure

Prolong your polish at home! Its simple… Manicures may need to be done every three days or every day depending on how hard you are on them. Pedicures about once a week. By applying a clear top coat to the nail and gliding it over the free edge provides a seal for your color. It may get on the tip of your finger or toe but will come off easily the next time you wash your hands. Remember that wearing gloves when possible will also keep your polish on and help from drying out cuticles. It is pedi season so let us take care of you and deck out those toes!

Important change at Salon 7000

Thank you for your generosity in tipping Team Salon 7000 members—we greatly appreciate it. The tips that we receive are a large part of our income. Due to increasing interest rates on our merchant transactions, we can no longer accept tips on credit cards. We are trying to do everything that we can to keep the transactions fees from directly affecting our loyal customers but have no alternative. Effective on April 27, 2009 we can only accept tips in cash. We sincerely appreciate your patronage. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Thank you for your understanding,
Team Salon 7000
