About AZURA (in 100 words or less)

Yes, we are known for being one of the cleanest salons in the country--after all we are owned by a doctor who hates germs and will use resources to rid our salons of germs (read below about the extra steps we take to make your salon visit safe and worry free). Yes, we are known for our exceptional customer service--which is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Yes, we are known for our ridiculously high standards--we constantly check the work of our professionals to ensure that customers only walk our with the best results. But that's not what we are about.

AZURA is about making the world a better place. AZURA is a way of thinking, living, and doing business.

The Steps AZURA Takes To Ensure Your Safety

We start by creating a salon that looks and smells clean. We have two 10-ton (more than we would ever need) A/C units and a separate ventilation fan in the manicure area that work to keep the salon smelling fresh and unsalon-like. We then clean the floors and all salon areas on a daily basis. On top of that, Jani King (a premiere commercial cleaning company) comes in twice a week to also clean the floors and all salon areas--talk about being extra clean.

Then we follow strict sterilization and sanitation procedures to ensure all implements, tools, and equipment are completely clean. We have and use a hospital grade auto-clave system (the same used by surgeons and dentists) to sterilize all implements. What we can't auto-clave, we use disposable. Each and every customer at every visit will receive a brand new foot file, nail file, and nail buffers.

AZURA also has pipe-less spa chairs that don't have recycled or stagnant water that can harbor germs. Our chairs are meticulously cleaned to keep you safe. They are cleaned and sanitized after each patron. Every night after closing, each and every chair is thoroughly cleaned and flushed with EPA approved disinfectant for at least 10 minutes to ensure that all germs are destroyed. And as a safe guard--and because our owner is a doctor--every Sunday night each and every chair is filled with a bleach solution and soaked over night. AZURA has over 20 chairs, but still keeps to this ritual religiously. Read about the dangers of an unclean salon over at Dr Anthony's Page.
