At BHAVA, we operate to the highest standards in health and hygiene. Our files and buffers are single use, and we clean all metal tools and treat them with hospital-grade disinfectant. We disinfect pedicure bowls using a hospital-grade antibacterial bleach soak.

Your cuticles are part of your skin. Cutting them could open the door to infection or irritation, and lead to nail problems such as ridges, white spots and lines or ragged edges. At BHAVA, we use a professional AHA solution to dissolve dead skin and gently push the cuticle back. We never cut the cuticle. We carefully nip only hangnails and dead skin. For this reason, it may take several manicures or pedicures to tame cuticles and restore them to their proper condition if they have been cut for some time at home or at another salon.

There are some conditions (like corns, warts and fungus) which make it necessary and wise for you to see a podiatrist or doctor. For safety, BHAVA nail technicians do not use blades on the feet, or treat nails or feet affected by conditions that require medical attention.
