Sole Studio

Snake-inspired nail art in crisp white and electric lime 🐍✨
Modern, bold, and just a little unexpected. Created by Lauren.

Who knew nails could be this fun while still staying focused on nail health and safe, hygienic tools? At Sole Studio, it’s all about creativity without compromise.

Here are three things your nail salon probably won't tell you. 🧴

1️⃣ Those metal instruments? At most salons, they're wiped down — not sterilised. A wipe is not sterilisation.

2️⃣ Fungal and bacterial nail infections from salons are more common than you think.

3️⃣ There IS a better option.

Sole Studio uses autoclave sterilisation on every instrument, before every client. The same standard used in hospitals and medical clinics. Because we're podiatrists — and we know what happens when hygiene isn't taken seriously.

What’s inside our pedicure kits at Sole Studio?
Everything we use is intentionally chosen for both results and safety — sterilised instruments, single-use essentials, and professional-grade products designed to care for your nails, skin, and overall foot health.
Clean. Conscious. Clinically informed 💙✨

Most people don't think about it — until something goes wrong. 🤍

The instruments used in nail salons touch skin. And if they're not properly sterilised between clients, the risk is real.

At Sole Studio, we autoclave-sterilise every single instrument before every single client. It's the same standard used in hospitals and medical clinics — because that's exactly the background we come from.

We've spent 16 years in healthcare. We know what proper infection control looks like. And we built Sole Studio so you never have to wonder.

Beautiful nails. Nothing to worry about.

Three Perth women. Sepsis, surgery, and a nail removal — all from a nail salon. 😔 This story dropped on ABC News today, and we can’t stay quiet about it.

Here’s what the investigation found: one salon wasn’t sterilising anything. Not the tools. Not even the water. And the beauty industry? Completely unregulated. No mandatory training. No sterilisation laws. No accountability.

Podiatry is the complete opposite. We answer to AHPRA. We follow hospital-grade infection control. And Sole Studio — our medical-grade nail salon inside Sole Podiatry — holds every appointment to that same clinical standard.

Every instrument. Autoclave sterilised. Every client. Every time.

You deserve beautiful nails AND peace of mind. That’s what we built Sole Studio for. 💅

This ABC News article dropped today — and we can't stay quiet about it. 😳

Three Perth women. Sepsis. Surgery. A nail removed. An infection travelling up someone's leg.

When the WA Health Department investigated? They found the salon wasn't sterilising anything. Not the tools. Not even the water.

This is what happens in an unregulated industry with no mandatory standards.

At Sole Studio, every instrument is sterilised in a hospital-grade autoclave between every single client — the same standard as a surgical clinic. Our nail techs work alongside podiatrists. They understand infection risk. They know what to look for.

Beautiful nails shouldn't be a health gamble. 💅
