Johnston Atoll is a remote coral atoll in the Pacific Ocean. It is located about 750 nautical miles west of Hawaii. Johnston Atoll was previously used as a military facility by the United States and was primarily used for nuclear weapons testing and storage. The atoll also served as a refueling stop for military aircraft and a base for scientific research. The atoll was discovered by Captain Charles J. Johnston of the American brig Kingfisher in 1807.

Be responsible for your Own Health
If you have a health history that may trigger a reaction or other problems, be sure to let the Elegant Nails Salon nail technician or cosmetologist know. These professionals are not allowed to ask about your health information. They perform their services based on what they can see and what you tell them. If you are getting a pedicure, try not to shave your legs 24 hours prior to the service. This reduces your chance of infection from a dirty tool or item used during your service. If you have cuts, blisters or other injuries prior to getting services, you may want to reschedule your visit. Even minor injuries can increase your risk of infection.
Reasons to consider using a different salon
Once you arrive, one of the first things you should do is take a look around. Take this opportunity to look at person performing the service you plan to receive and the overall activities in the salon. See if employees are washing their hands. When performing a pedicure, are they washing their clients feet? Are areas where services are provided clean and organized? Here are a few other reasons that may require you to re-consider looking for another nail salon:
- Salons that do not look clean in general
- Services provided to clients with infected fingers, nails, toenails or feet
- Salons using dusty or dirty nail files and other tools
- Restrooms are dirty or unkempt, lack liquid soap and/or clean towels
- Nail files and other tools stored in a dirty drawer or container or mixed with clean tools
- Nail files or other tools placed in dirty or contaminated-looking solution
- Razors used on your feet to remove a callus
- Products used from unlabeled or unmarked containers
- Methyl methacrylate (MMA) used to glue false nails to nail beds
When the person who is providing the services is ready for you, make sure they have the proper license. The law requires that the license is displayed for public viewing. You should see a license displayed on the wall as you enter the Elegant Nails Salon or an individual's station. If you cannot find it, then you can inquire to see the license. The type of license should be for a cosmetologist or nail technician. Any other license does not cover those services. If someone refuses to talk about a license or won't produce it, that should throw up a red flag. It's very possible the person or business is not licensed to perform the service.
"Single-use" items mean single use. Items such as paper nail files, orangewood sticks, pumice stones, or foam flip-flops don't survive the cleaning and disinfection process. If you see that these items are used or dirty, ask for a new, clean item. Multi-use tools that are metal and plastic must be cleaned and disinfected with each new client. If there is an appearance of lotion, skin, hair or anything that shows the tool hasn't been cleaned or disinfected, it shouldn't be used.
Ask the cosmetologist or nail technician to clean and disinfect the item before it is used on you. Observe the condition of the manicuring table. The manicuring table is required to be properly sanitized between each client. A sterilizer (a container filled with a disinfectant solution for sterilizing manicuring tools) should be visible on the table. The manicuring tools also must be properly sanitized between each client. Manicuring requires the use of chemicals (such as acetone) and salons must be properly ventilated. If you are conscious of a strong chemical odor, proper ventilation may not be in place.
Pricing and Advertising
The price list for all services must be posted in a conspicuous place in the salon. No salon may use any advertising which is misleading or inaccurate or misrepresent any materials or services, terms, values or policies.

During World War II, Johnston Atoll became a strategic base for the United States in the Pacific. It was heavily fortified and used as an airbase for launching bombing raids on Japanese-controlled islands. After the war, the atoll was used for nuclear testing as part of the U.S. nuclear weapons program. Over the years, numerous nuclear tests were conducted on Johnston Atoll, leading to significant environmental contamination. In 2004, the U.S. military officially closed down its operations on Johnston Atoll and the atoll was transferred to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It is now part of the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument and is designated as a national wildlife refuge. The atoll is home to a variety of seabirds and marine life, including green sea turtles and spinner dolphins. Today, Johnston Atoll remains uninhabited and access to the atoll is restricted. It is used primarily for scientific research and ecological monitoring. The legacy of its military past, including the environmental impacts of nuclear testing, continues to be a concern. Efforts are being made to clean up and restore the atoll to its natural state. Overall, Johnston Atoll represents an important historical and ecological site in the Pacific..
Reviews for "Make a Statement with Johnston Ti's Magical Nail Designs"
1. Emily - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with my experience at Magic Nails Johnston. The nail technician was unfriendly and rushed through the entire process. The final result wasn't great either, with sloppy polish application and uneven nails. I expected better quality for the price I paid. I won't be returning here.
2. Mike - 1 star - I had the worst manicure of my life at Magic Nails Johnston. The technician was extremely rough and didn't take into consideration that my nails are sensitive. She also ignored my requests and ended up cutting my cuticles too aggressively, resulting in bleeding. It was a painful and unpleasant experience, and I cannot recommend this place to anyone.
3. Sarah - 2 stars - I went to Magic Nails Johnston hoping for a relaxing nail spa experience, but it was far from that. The staff seemed disorganized and there was a lack of cleanliness in the salon. The technician rushed through the manicure and didn't pay attention to detail. The polish started chipping within a couple of days, which was frustrating considering I paid a decent amount for the service. Overall, I was disappointed with the lack of professionalism and won't be going back.
