Cool Naming nail salons - 15-07-06, 12:02 AM

Hi techs

I have been reminicsing on the naming of Scratch magazine and it got me thinking about the fantastic names you give your nail salons/businesses -

So I thought it would be great to ask you...

if you had to name a nail salon (or if you have already) - what would you call it?

Tell me the name and how/why you chose it

I bet there's some really great names out there that I've still not come across...

Adelle Nails It!

I wanted to use my name so that I was the first in the phone book, and I also found a cool font on the net called "Nails", and it's letters made from building nails, so it's a bit of a play on words.

Mine is Nail Parlour
I think it describes what I do. And gives the impression it is a relaxing place.
I did a search for ''definition of parlour''
Answer was.....Parlour is a bit like home, come in - stay for a while and relax.

Nail-Spa....I wanted it to say what we did on the tin so to speak. We're on a busy through route so I wanted people driving by to see the name, automatically know what we did and be able to remember it so they could look it up when they got home.

I've already named it and i'm doing it homebased for now

*Glitter*
(nails, esthetics and spa therapy)

1. I chose it because it suits me!
when people find out what my buisness name is they're always like, omg! that's so you! And they all seem to like the name. (my bf calls me a fish because i'm always attracted to shiney, pretty things LOL)
So this way people can easily remember me and my name

2. It's short and simple

3. I wanted something for more than just nails..

Buff! (with compliments from Mrs Geek who mentioned the name and I just loved it)

It has so many meanings - an enthusiast / to shine or polish / to give a velvety smooth surface, which all sum up what I am about. I get quite a few clients who chose me out of the Yellow Pages just because they liked the name, they say it's short and sassy (just like me lol!)



... although I'm still waiting for some perve to phone me and ask if I do it "in the buff"! ... which indeedy I don't!

When I have a salon it is going to be called Talons & Tootsies! But, for now, I am concentrating on building up my mobile business and I am called Nailz - simple and says what I do! (I think...)

Klassy Klaws
I had big problems trying to think of mine so I asked for a little help from the lovely geeks.
I did think of Kazies (Karen is my name) Klassy Klaws (liked it with the K instead of C)but I thought it was to long and if you see its KKK which I didn't think was very good

When I finally get going (after I hopefully finish my L&P Foundation) I'm going to be called "Beautiful Cuticles".

I like the way it sounds, and hopefully sums up what the clients will get when they've had their treatments!
