Frequently Asked Questions
Is gel polish worth it on toenails compared to fingernails?
Yes! Because toenails grow at roughly half the rate of fingernails and suffer minimal impact, a gel pedicure frequently remains completely chip-free and ultra-shiny for 4 to 6 weeks.
Are pipeless pedicure chairs safer than traditional jetted foot tubs?
Pipeless foot tubs are vastly more sanitary. Older jetted tubs harbor trapped bacteria, skin flakes, and fungal pathogens inside internal piping that cannot be cleaned, whereas pipeless basins utilize magnetic impellers that sanitize completely between clients.
