SAN FRANCISCO SPLURGE

By The Flying Pinto

Attention all Flight Attendants: Next time you have a layover in SFO, treat yourself to a pedicure at Nova Nail Spa located at 811 Mission St.

Nova Nail Spa is the first nail spa in San Francisco designed with “green” interior building materials and finishes, producing a healthier experience for their guests in addition to being energy efficient and environmentally responsible.

Every detail, from the insulation to the flooring materials to the pedicure seats to the plaster on the walls to the lighting is either non-toxic, energy efficient, rapidly renewable or recycled.

And it doesn’t start and stop with the design. Nova Nail Spa products and treatments are all natural and non-acrylic. Non-toxic polishes and interior finishes combined with an extensive ventilation system, Nova Nail Spa doesn’t have that “paint shop” smell associated with traditional nail salons.

Prices start at $25 for a manicure and $40 for a pedicure…well worth it!

It really doesn’t smell like a nail salon!On my recent trip to SFO my girlfriends and I relaxed and enjoyed pedicures and then headed over to North Beach for great Italian food…..and coffee…..and desert: )
