Since pedicures are one of the most popular ways for clients
to relax in and salon, every beauty based business needs to have the pedicure
equipment to provide them. The professional salon equipment needed for a great
pedicure is actually very straight forward.
The largest investment of money when buying equipment for
pedicures will unquestionably go to the pedicure chair itself. This chair
should feature a heavily padded seat with a massage component for the back and
neck. This massage component should come with an easy to use controller so a
client can set the massage intensity and location to their liking.
The basin of the pedicure chair needs to be equipped with
easy and clearly marked water temperature controls, an easily used drain, and
Jacuzzi jets for massaging the feet. This basin should also be made of
anti-microbial plastic to encourage cleanliness. All chairs must meet the state
and national requirement for electrical safety as well, which is vitally
important when working near water.
Other pedicure tools include stools for the technicians to
sit on, carts for holding supplies, pedicure soaps and lotions, nail and foot
beautifying tools, and cleaning supplies to keep the chairs in perfect working
order.
Caring for Pedicure Equipment
Because pedicures are very popular and will rapidly become a
mainstay of any thriving salon or nail spa’s income, it is very important to
keep the pedicure equipment in top shape. Breakdowns are costly and will loose
a business time and customers. So how can pedicure chairs and other relevant
salon furnishings be kept up?
First of all, when the initial purchase of a piece of
professional salon equipment is made, it should be inspected and cleaned
thoroughly. This give it a great start to staying in working order.
Next, pedicure chairs’ instruction manual should be read
thoroughly. Make certain that the electrical current in your building matched
with the circuitry of the pedicure station. Water and drain setting need to be
checked regularly to make sure there are no leaks or blockages.
Cleaning the chairs every day also helps to keep them
functioning properly long term. Also, it is very important to use
anti-microbial cleansing solutions or wipes to clean the surface of all
pedicure chairs. This must be done every single time they are used. Not only
will it prevent the spreading pathogens but it may also prevent the build of up
toxic mold in the chair’s piping.
