    Etiquette tips you need to know before your next manicure<\/h2>\n
      \n
    1. Arrive on Time \u2013 It is important to arrive at your appointment on time to ensure that the nail technician has enough time to properly shape and paint your nails. If you are running late, it is important to call ahead so the salon can adjust its schedule accordingly.<\/li>\n
    2. Be Prepared for Sanitation Procedures \u2013 The nail technician will use various tools and utensils during your manicure service, and many salons have sanitation protocols in place for each customer. This may include having every tool sterilized before use or changing gloves between customers; be prepared for these procedures when you arrive for your appointment, so there are no surprises later on.<\/li>\n
    3. Know What You Want Beforehand \u2013 If you have a particular color or style of manicure in mind, it is important to communicate that to the nail technician before your service begins. This will save you time and ensure you leave with the nails you wanted.<\/li>\n
    4. Let Your Nail Technician Work \u2013 While discussing what type of manicure you would like, feel free to ask questions and be involved in the process. However, once the professional starts shaping or painting your nails, let them do their job without interruption.<\/li>\n
    5. Be Respectful of Others \u2013 Manicures can take some time, especially when more intricate designs are involved; respect other customers’ right to enjoy a quiet environment during their appointment by keeping conversations at a minimum.<\/li>\n
    6. Follow-Up Care Tips \u2013 Finally, ask your nail technician for their recommendations on keeping your nails looking healthy and vibrant after the manicure is finished; this will help ensure you get the most out of your service.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
