Upgrade Your Pedicures for Increased Client Loyalty!

Pedicures are one of the most popular services a spa or salon can offer and an incredible way to build customer loyalty. If I find a place that offers a fantastic pedicure, I will go there forever and ever for any of my services! While there are a lot of factors that go into offering a fantastic pedicure, a great pedicure spa is key. 

Continuum Pedicure Spas are designed, engineered and assembled exclusively in the United States. Each pedicure chair is inspected and tested by a certified master plumber prior to packaging. When you purchase a Continuum pedicure chair you're assured a high-quality pedicure chair built to last. 

One of our favorites is the Continuum Bravo LE. The Bravo is an incredibly comfortable and well-designed pedicure spa. Its sleek style and skillful craftsmanship make the Bravo an extraordinary value. The LE (Luxury Edition) chair has a full (rolling, kneading, tapping and knocking) deep-tissue shiatsu back massage that clients can personalize with its easily operated hand control. Acetone resistant manicure trays and convenient dual pivoting arms add elements of quality and convenience. Premium ultra-leather, molded arms and a commercial-grade massage mechanism are also some of the upgraded features of the LE chair. 

Bravo Features
Pivoting Foot & Leg Support:
No more tired and sore arms from holding the clients leg up during the pedicure! This unique one-piece design pivots to 30 and 90 degrees ensuring total comfort for client and tech. Whether you are massaging the calf, working on the heel or painting toenails, the foot is perfectly positioned throughout the entire pedicure. 

Tempered Glass Bowl:
Available in several eye-catching colors, the tempered glass basin is ¾" thick and resistant to cracks and stains. A heat-treating process gives the glass bowls a special reflective/glimmering appearance…A built-in multi-colored LED light further enhances the aesthetic look. 

LED Light:

Pamper your clients with an invigorating foot massage from a powerful dual stream pipe-less magnetic jet. Continuum's pipe-less system ensures a safe and sanitary pedicure by eliminating internal pipes that recirculate water. This whisper-quiet jet is compatible with tub liners, making it the convenient solution to pedicure spa sanitation. The magnetic jet is exceptionally easy to remove; simply remove the wet-end of the jet after each pedicure to clean and sanitize.

Taking a little extra time and talking to your clients beforehand will help you choose what is right for them.

What are your options?
Rose Quartz is a stone containing warmth and love. It is used for healing emotional wounds and pain with it's gentle and calming energies. It opens the heart to the beauty within and around us. Rose Quartz begins the healing process by reducing resentments.

Pneumatic compression devices have been regularly used in clinics and hospitals across the United States for the past twenty-five years for the treatment of venous and lymphatic disorders and for the prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). Configured in a variety of forms, these systems are always composed of a compressor and extremity appliances. The compartments in the extremity appliance are inflated sequentially via the compressor, with declining pressures distal to proximal in gradient systems, causing the lymphatic fluid or blood to circulate out of the affected limb, thereby reducing swelling and preventing venous stasis.

This therapy simulates the normal circulatory action through the use of external pressure, counteracting the underlying pathology of chronic lymphatic and venous disease. Physicians have long prescribed pneumatic compression devices as a treatment for venous and lymphatic disorders that have resisted management by less extensive therapies such as elastic compression and elevation.

This same technology is now available for spa treatments. The system offers systematic mechanical application of sequential pressure and movement to the soft tissue of the body - skin, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia.

Product Of The Week: June Jacobs Brightening Moisturizer

The recommendation I've been asked for multiple times each day this week so far, is for a moisturizer. Dry, aging skin are on the forefront of client concerns.

My mother called me a week or so ago complaining that she just can't find an effective moisturizer that brightens. She said she had tried multiple ones that were okay but none seemed to brighten. Now my mother is in her 70's and isn't up on ingredients and things like that. She is the client who just needs recommendations from someone she trusts. How many of your clients are the same?

I sent her a bottle of the June Jacobs Brightening Moisturizer as a surprise. She noticed from the start that it just felt nicer when she put it on. She enjoyed not having to slather it on (a little goes a long way with June Jacobs products!) and how fresh it felt. She called me after 4 uses excited as her skin was no longer dry, and it was brighter already.

Paraben and preservative free, lactic acid for gentle exfoliation, combines with sweet almond oil and shea butter for the hydrating effects. Lemon peel extract rejuvenates and increases the luster of tired skin, while bearberry root, mulberry root, licorice extract and Gigawhite™ act as natural lightening agents to help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation. What that all means is your clients get a one-two punch of goodness leaving their skin soft, supple and looking younger!

I'm sharing this quick story as it is important to always be aware of who your clients are, not just what is going on with their skin. We may forget, as professionals immersed in the industry, that not everyone knows what may seem "novice" or "basic" terms, products or ingredients.  

Test this out on yourself, your VIP clients or bring in a few to get clients feedback.

Client Cool Down

There is no way around it, sometimes the treatments we are performing may not be the most comfortable. Often times there is a slight downtime or the client is leaving with a red or irritated face. What are you offering to boost your business and increase client satisfaction?

What about a cooling mask? Use a mask with the cooling effect to calm down skin after laser treatments, microderm, chemical peels, waxing, and more!
