Have you been interested in adding aromatherapy to your nail service menu, but were unsure about where to start? We provide you with some handy tips on working with essential oils, plus a closer look at some of the most popular ones.
Create a personalized experience for your client by adding Backscratchers’ Aromatic Spa Drops to each foot bath. You can also mix your own blends and make sweet-smelling aromas of your own creation – but be cautious not to use more than 10 drops per gallon of water, and no more than 30 drops total in a single bath.
It’s almost unimaginable to think that ancient civilizations were as concerned about beauty, image, and body care as we are today. Yet studies of ancient Egyptian tombs prove otherwise. Cosmetic implements such as razors, tweezers, and eye makeup palettes have been revealed inside.
Just as restaurants can’t profit simply from selling entrees, salons can’t profit simply from selling basic services. In order to make more money, you need to sell add-on services that can increase your bottom-line profits in as little as two minutes’ time.
The most powerful component in aromatherapy – and the one least understood or acknowledged – is the direct role our sense of smell has on our bodies. Why does ylang-ylang relax and rosemary stimulate? Why do some nail techs become immune to the smell of acrylic? It’s all about smell, memory, and the scientific magic that connects the two.
No doubt, adding aromatherapy to your services can greatly benefit clients, but beware that the use of certain essential oils can also cause harm. With almost 50 million Americans suffering from allergies, adverse reactions to aromatherapy are far from rare.
Whether they gain relief of bothersome symptoms or they just love the pleasing fragrances, the American public has a love affair with aromatherapy.
Clients leave with a positive impression of your salon when you use the subtle scents of aromatherapy.
