It looks clean and welcoming
You can tell a lot about a salon's cleanliness simply but looking around. Do the floors look like they've been swept and mopped within the last 24 hours? Are the bathrooms well maintained? Do you feel happy and excited to be in the space, or is there something about it that makes you feel a little icky? A nail salon that takes pride in its appearance is one that also takes pride in its sanitary procedures.
