There are some crap ones in the community, but any legit one will have certificates on the wall, you will see them using either disposable files/or fresh files that have been sterilised (if you see a worn out file or a dirty one ask for a new one), you will see hospital grade disinfectants, ask questions.... It is known that the Professionails throughout the world are unhygienic/unsafe, hence why some countries now are banning them in malls etc. There are also some legit ones in the malls, but stay away from the asian bars. Ask who they trained with etc..... 95% of the ones in the community or non asian ones in the malls, you will find are legit. These are the key factors people need to check when getting nails done: Certificates on the walls, Make sure all instruments used have come out of a clean container and are clean, a quick spray with a disinfectant is not good enough, ask to see the list of ingredients in bottles that are unmarked (personally any bottle unmarked I would stay away from), make sure the disinfectants are hospital grade, not your standard supermarket ones.... It is not uncommon for people to even bring their own files, all my regulars have their own set of files, (which I hold in a paper bag for them with names on them) which are still washed and sterilised with hospital grade disinfectants after each appointment and thrown out regularly. I use disposable files on first time clients... Honestly it may seem over the top, but if you have to lose a finger or a toe because of bad hygiene you would have wished you had thought twice about going there.

Google some of the documentaries that TVNZ have done with hidden cameras.... it's not worth the risk trust me. If you go there for your nails (which by looking at the photos you do) I would say find somewhere else, they are horrendous for fungal infections and the use of MMA a banned substance in new Zealand. They put them in unnamed bottles, and they use it as it costs a fraction of the price of the legit stuff. They are being closed down in many countries in the world now because of what products they use and they don't use proper hygiene standards. Yes they are handy as they are in malls, most of the staff are untrained, in the end its your own choice, but I really do recommend you look at some of the hidden camera documentaries they have made. Here are some links http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/beauty/73597193/Manicure-turns-to-nightmare-for-Rotorua-teen , http://www.metromag.co.nz/current-affairs/the-cost-of-cute-cuticles-how-nailbars-could-be-risking-your-health/ , just 2 of hundreds of complaints....
