Let's take a closer look at the features of the selection and placement of furniture paraphernalia in the manicure room.
Features of the choice of premises
Before proceeding with the selection of furniture, you need to make sure that the room meets all standards and requirements.
- It should be spacious enough, with high ceilings and an area corresponding to the number of craftsmen. For example, an office with an area of 12-15 sq. M is quite suitable for one master. m, but for two or more craftsmen, the room should be much larger.
- It is desirable that the premises for the manicure room belong to the category of "non-residential fund".
A room on the basement or first floor of a residential building is suitable, provided that it has a separate entrance from the entrance.
- The manicure room must be fully provided with both cold and hot water supply. If the room is divided into several zones for different craftsmen, it is best that the water supply is supplied to each of them. In addition, a prerequisite is the presence of a bathroom.
- The room must necessarily comply with all fire safety standards and all applicable sanitary standards.
- It is desirable to have a neat, tidy and stylish redecoration so that clients are pleased to be in the studio.
Basic furniture set
The room of the manicure studio does not have to be filled with a variety of fancy items, but the basic furniture set must be present.
- The main and main element in such a room is the workplace, namely: table... It should be strong, of medium height and width, so that the client and the craftsman do not have to stretch too much for each other.
Models with built-in drawers located on the master's side are very convenient, as well as small side shelves that allow you to place all the tools you need for work.
- No workplace can be equipped without comfortable armchairs or chairs... For craftsmen, comfortable chairs with soft seats and height adjustment are best suited, and for clients - comfortable chairs with a high seating position, backrest and armrests. It is very important for the client to feel comfortable, because many sign up for a manicure in the evening, after a working day, and a comfortable chair will just help to relax and relieve the accumulated stress.
- The desktop, no matter how spacious and convenient, is still not suitable for storing all equipment, tools and a set of gels and varnishes, so for these purposes it is necessary to purchase a compact stylish wardrobe or storage rack... It is best if it is a furniture attribute with doors: they will help protect the contents from dirt and dust that forms during the filing of nails.
- It will take comfortable and compact pedicure chair, as well as a specialized trolley on wheels, on which you can put all the necessary tools and tools for a pedicure. Thus, there is no need to clutter up the space with unnecessary tables. It is worth noting that there are many different models of trolleys, but all of them are equipped with small wheels to make it easier to move. For example, a model with shelves and an upholstered cushion is suitable for a small studio where there is no way to put a full-function chair. In this case, the pillow on the trolley will be used for clients to put their feet on it during the procedure. If there is a functional armchair in the salon with a folding part for the legs, then there is no need for such an item, and a regular model with shelves or drawers will do.
In addition to the already listed furniture attributes, you will need a small cabinet or chest of drawers, on which you can place devices for processing tools, and inside - other working materials. And a small chair, and a table or counter - for organizing the administrator's workplace.
Additional elements
In addition to the main set of furniture attributes for a manicure room, you can add additional elements to the interior. For example, small hinged shelves that will serve to store various tools and things and save free space.
If the area of the premises allows, then you should get a wardrobe for clothes of masters and clients. Hangers-racks may not be very convenient, because with a large amount of outerwear they can fall off, and on wall-mounted models it can be difficult to find and get your thing.
Also, if there is free space, you should purchase a coffee table and a small sofa, where customers can while away the time while waiting for the master to be free.
Which style should you choose?
To create a harmonious design and a cozy atmosphere in a nail salon, it is necessary to take into account the stylistic design of the room itself and its dimensions when choosing furniture.
For example, a small office should not be decorated in a classic style, choosing the appropriate furniture, which, although it looks luxurious and expensive, is still quite massive and large.
Furniture attributes in a classic style are perfect for a large area and will help create an atmosphere of chic and gloss.
For a small manicure studio, minimalist or high-tech furniture would be ideal. Compact modern racks, sideboards, tables and unusual chairs will help create a unique, fashionable, stylish and cozy atmosphere even in the smallest room.
To create coziness in a small studio, you should pay attention to Provence style furniture. Soft fabric armchairs and light-colored wooden furniture, complemented by small decorative details in the form of vases with lavender branches, will help create a truly soulful atmosphere.
Placement tips
In order for the manicure studio to look stylish, it is important not just to choose beautiful furniture - you need to correctly arrange it, observing all the features of the room and the dimensions of the furniture itself.
In a small room, the placement of furniture should be as compact and functional as possible.
For example, it is better to place a manicure table near a window so that it serves as an additional source of illumination during the daytime.
It is best for the table to be located at a short distance from the wall, to which the master will sit with his back: then, behind him, it will be possible to place a small rack for gels, varnishes and other cosmetics. A pedicure trolley can also be placed next to the rack, which, if necessary, will be quite easy to move to the chair.
If the dimensions of the office allow, then a long rack placed along a free wall can serve not only as a functional furniture attribute, but also as a kind of decor, you just need to beautifully arrange bottles and jars of varnishes in it.
It is best to place the pedicure chair in a free corner of the office, away from the entrance and the draft. Since the client is barefoot during the pedicure, the cold air currents that appear when the front door is opened may be unpleasant.
As for the administrator's workplace, it should be located immediately in front of the entrance, so that he can hospitably meet guests and answer all their questions.
