Hygienic manicure/pedicure recommendations

Post by taniato » Tue, 07 Mar 2017 1:50 pm

Hi all,

I am looking for a hygienic place to get my mani pedi done in Singapore, where they actually disinfect the tools and run them through the disinfecting machine (I forget what it is called).

Thanks so much!

Tania

Hi,

I recommend Juup nails in the marina bay link mall. They're really good & they disinfect their instruments. Some of my friends have recommended Snails in orchard to me. I've not been but their nails look great & it's clean. It is a bit more expensive. Hope that helps!

Hello. I go to BRANCHE in Capitol Piazza. I think the nail artist has very good techniques and familiar with latest trends. They have a private room, so it's more relaxing than usual salons.

Hi Guys, I would suggest only receiving treatment by qualified people using instruments that have been sterilised in an autoclave and not shared between customers. Any other methods of sterilisation will not be effective in killing off all bacteria/fungi. Also, any places that utilise basins at the base of the chairs pose further health threats as they may not be effectively sterilised between clients. The water may be changed yet the surfaces cannot be appropriately disinfected with the use of sprays, wipes and such. Just my two cents' worth! ;)

Actually you can politely request them to sterlise the instruments. For myself, I go Beyoutiful at Tanjong Pagar. Good techniques and has good nails design - https://beyoutiful.com.sg/manicure-pedicure/ Hope this helps.

I get my nails done at the Nailist City in 313 Somerset. The staff are so friendly and personable, and I’ve never been dissatisfied with the designs I’ve received. Hygiene standards are very high as well, they sterilize the tools right in front of you.

I visited NailCraft (www.nailcraft.sg) for classic manicure and eyelash extensions regularly. Had great experience so far with fantastic job done. The tools are disinfected using UV sterilizer.

Wow, prices seem incredibly reasonable. I’ll keep this place in mind for future appointments.

Hi All,

Just to make you all feel nice and warm inside, Mongolia’s Hepatitis C epidemic was largely fuelled by unhygienic manicure/pedicure services…

Enjoy!

Ew… wish I hadn’t read that. But doesn’t worry me, I always get my nails done at the same place, been going for ages with no issue.
