Airport Nail Salons

Last time we traveled together, my fiancee remarked that there should be nail salons in airports. Tons of reasons why:

- Travelers often have 10 minutes to kill
- They often want to look polished upon arrival
- A little pampering smooths out a bumpy trip
- Manicures cost about the same as a grande latte and a scone, and you can sleep afterwards

We brainstormed a bit and couldn't think of any reasons why they're not already there. The only thing we could conclude is that maybe the chemicals needed are tough to get a permit for in an airport. You know, because chemicals are liquids.

Anyway, after we talked about it I sent myself a text message to my email address (because this doesn't exist yet), which I dug out today to write up this entry. I started with a little research, and quickly concluded that this is the best idea of the lot so far:

Airport salon offers travelers fast manicure

So :10 Minute Manicure is in the Lexington, KY airport, and pondering plans to expand to Louisville, KY. There are a lot of airports left, and style points aren't awarded for originality.

This reminds me, I was just wondering, have you ever heard of these nail files? They work on Acrylic and natural nails. I have tried them and they are incredible! I’ve never heard of anything like them before. They are much healthier for your nails than any other nail file out there. They are made of crystal, so they are also earth friendly. They are also non-porous so they don’t absorb bacteria! I have been trying to spread the word about these things so here is their website... nailfile.net
