If I have a cancellation, I'll put that appointment to people that are waiting. Sorry if it's offered to you and by the time you confirm it's already taken, they are being snapped up 🫰🏼 I'm trying to be fair to everyone and getting you all an appointment that suits 👣

As you know, I'll always do my best to get you booked in at the last minute but this is starting to get difficult due to how busy I am. I currently have no appointments until the start of August. I'll post any availability if any come up.
I'm advising people to book 2 or 3 appointments in advance to guarantee the day and time that suits you best.
As always, thank you so much for your continued support in a job that I love 👣

The absolute bane of my life 😩

Fungal nail infections, also known as onychomycosis, develop when fungi invade and multiply under the nail, often through small cracks or injuries. These infections are more common in warm, moist environments and can be caused by fungi that also cause athlete's foot. Factors like wearing shoes that trap moisture, walking barefoot in public areas, and having damaged nails can increase the risk!

🌞 In hot weather, feet can experience swelling and a sensation of heat due to the body's natural cooling mechanisms and gravity's effect on fluid retention. When temperatures rise, blood vessels near the skin's surface dilate to release heat, and fluid can accumulate in the feet and ankles, causing swelling. Additionally, the increased sweating associated with heat can create a breeding ground for bacteria and fungi, potentially leading to foot odor and other issues.

Causes of hot and swollen feet in the heat:
Blood vessels expand to release heat, and this expansion can cause fluid to leak into surrounding tissues, leading to swelling.

When standing or sitting for extended periods, gravity can cause fluid to pool in the feet and ankles, exacerbating swelling.

Increased sweat production can create a moist environment, which can contribute to foot odor and fungal infections.

Stay hydrated 💦
Drinking plenty of water helps regulate body temperature and reduce fluid retention.
Elevate your feet ⬆️
Raising your feet above your heart can help improve circulation and reduce swelling.
Cool your feet ❄️
Soaking your feet in cool water or using a fan can help lower the temperature and provide relief.
Wear breathable shoes and socks 🧦
Opt for shoes made of breathable materials and moisture-wicking socks to help keep your feet cool and dry.
Avoid prolonged standing or sitting 🪑
Take breaks to move around and stretch your legs to improve circulation. 👣

Why do your toenails grow thick as you get older 🤔
Lots of people ask me this. 1 of the reasons is as people age, their nail growth rate slows down due to a decrease in blood flow to the nail matrix, the area where new nails are produced. This slower growth means that the nail cells don't shed as quickly as they did when younger, leading to a buildup of nail material and thickening.
Fungal nail could also be an issue 👣
