Inside the new salon, the family has added all new equipment and put a strong focus on sanitary practices.

Each table has a dust vacuum, and the new pedicure chairs are pipeless and use liners for each client.

The salon also added junior pedicure chairs for children, expanded its pedicure menu with deluxe and collagen options, and now uses single-use paraffin wax for hands and feet, along with disposable files and buffers.

Topline Nails also offers manicures, pedicures, waxing and hand-painted nail art, and clients can see designs on the business's Instagram and Facebook pages.
