Top 10 Best-Selling Nail Products Every Salon Should Stock
Running a nail salon is about more than providing great service — it’s also about having the right products on hand to keep clients happy and coming back. Stocking the right items helps you work more efficiently, deliver consistent quality, and increase your bottom line.
At TOT Nail Supply, we work with salons across the U.S. and we know which products are must-haves for any busy nail salon. Here are our top 10 best-sellers that your salon should consider keeping in stock year-round.
1. Gel Polish (Top Brands & Trendy Colors)
Clients love the long-lasting shine of gel polish. Popular colors like nude, soft pink, and classic red never go out of style, while seasonal shades keep your offerings fresh.
2. Acrylic Powder & Liquid Monomer
Acrylic nails remain one of the most requested services in salons. Quality powders and monomers ensure smooth application, strong adhesion, and minimal lifting.
3. Professional Nail Drills & Bits
A durable, high-speed drill saves technicians time and effort. Keep multiple bits for shaping, removing gel, and cleaning cuticles.
4. Disposable Pedicure Kits
Hygiene is key. Pre-packaged kits with liners, buffers, and pumice stones keep your pedicures sanitary while saving time.
5. Cuticle Oil
A small bottle can go a long way. Retail these to customers after their service to help them maintain healthy nails at home.
6. Hand & Foot Lotions
Moisturizing products are a salon staple. Many Vietnamese salons love using fresh scents like cucumber or lavender — universally appealing to all clients.
7. Nail Files & Buffers
Stock up on different grits for natural nails and artificial enhancements. These wear out quickly, so having extras on hand is essential.
8. Spa Scrubs & Masks
Add a luxury touch to services with sugar scrubs and masks for hands and feet. They’re an easy upsell for a “deluxe” treatment.
9. Base Coat & Top Coat
The secret to a long-lasting manicure is in the prep and finish. Invest in quality base and top coats to keep clients’ nails looking fresh.
10. Nail Art Tools & Accessories
From rhinestones to stamping plates, creative nail art accessories help your salon stand out.
💡 Pro Tip: Many successful salons carry a small display of retail products (cuticle oil, lotion, nail strengthener) near the register for impulse buys.
