MANicure

This isn’t an online business idea, but it hit me today so I wanted to get it out there anyway.  I know not all of you are like me — content to sit in front of a computer screen all day — so it may be useful for you.

Lots of guys get manicures — many more, obviously, than would admit it — and the ones who do totally swear by it.  Those of us who don’t are always told, “Man, if you tried it, you’d like it.”  Which is exactly the problem: I’m sure they’re right.

There’s such a stigma attached to walking into one of those places, though, and not the least of it are the names of the places.  Here are some examples of actual nail places near me:

• Foxy Nails
• Golden Nail Salon
• Solara Sol Nail Salon‎
• Nails Mignon
• VV Nails
• Luxe Nail Spa
• Just For You Nails

What guy is going to walk into a place like that with head held high?  Not many.

What if there was a place that specialized in manicures, though?  Sort of a Sport Clips, but for manicures and pedicures.  There’s a nail place in every strip mall that goes up around here — 17 different places within a two-mile radius of my house.  Surely someone could use a way to differentiate themselves.
