Pedicures can be relaxing and pampering, but experts say you need to watch out for these things at your salon to avoid infections and fungus.
It's almost Mother's Day and you may be considering a relaxing pedicure for mom, but before mom dips her feet into the foot bath, doctors say you need to make sure it is cleaned properly to avoid infections and fungus.
Nikki Tran, owner of Le Bijou Salon and Spa in West Houston, told ABC13 that they take several steps to make sure the foot bowls at her salon are disinfected. "Before we do a pedicure, we put the liner bag on it and we put a little block of sanitation disinfectant in the water, and we do clean before and after the client is done," Tran said.
Dr. Mary Alice Hickson, a dermatologist at Kelsey-Seybold Clinic, said salons can even go a step further. She recommends using bleach to clean foot bowls.
