SOAK’s Spring/Summer 2026 Magazine Has Arrived — Welcome to the Season of Self-Care, Escape & Elevated Wellness

Spring has officially arrived at SOAK Nail Spa + Lounge, and with it comes the release of our newest magazine issue: SOAK’s Pedi Passport — A Local Guide to Escapes for the Senses, SOAK Style.

This season’s issue is more than just a beauty magazine — it’s an invitation to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and rediscover the small rituals that make life feel beautiful again.

Inside, you’ll find immersive seasonal pedicure experiences, tropical summer escapes, wellness partnerships, cocktail pairings, mood-inspired nail art, luxury product finds, and the self-care trends we’re obsessing over this year. From March through summer, SOAK is transforming routine nail appointments into intentional experiences designed to nourish both body and mind.

This Season’s Theme: The Pedi Passport™

At the heart of this issue is SOAK’s newest concept: the Pedi Passport™. Inspired by travel, wellness, and sensory escape, the Pedi Passport turns every seasonal experience into a destination of its own.

From tropical-inspired summer rituals to mood-boosting spring experiences, guests can collect stamps, seasonal keepsakes, and exclusive rewards all summer long.

Beginning in June, guests who book qualifying seasonal experiences can collect a passport stamp each month for a chance to earn SOAK’s “Ticket to Paradise™” — a special 2-for-1 Seasonal Pedicure reward redeemable in September.

Because self-care should feel like an escape.

March Starts With a Mood Boost™

The season begins with SOAK’s March Mood Boost™ Experience — a bright, uplifting pedicure ritual designed to awaken the senses and shake off winter energy.

Guests can expect:

  • Refreshing citrus and lime-infused treatments

  • Rainbow-inspired sensory details

  • A hydrating lemon mask

  • Seasonal cocktails and mocktails

  • Mood-based polish selection

  • A lucky penny keepsake for positive energy

It’s playful, nostalgic, refreshing, and exactly the kind of reset spring calls for.

Spring Experiences Designed Around Ritual & Wellness

This issue also introduces SOAK’s full lineup of upcoming seasonal experiences — each one thoughtfully curated around mood, scent, texture, and emotional escape.

April: Farmhouse Fresh Bloom™

A grounding spring ritual inspired by florals, sweet tea, honey butter, and fresh renewal. Featuring FarmHouse Fresh products that help support animal rescue initiatives.

May: Awesome Blossom™

A personalized floral experience where guests create their own custom dried flower soak blends before indulging in a glow-focused pedicure ritual.

Summer: Tropical Pedi Passport™

Summer officially becomes a full sensory vacation with coconut creams, Pure Fiji scrubs, tropical oil blending, island-inspired scents, and curated cocktail pairings.

This season’s magazine makes one thing very clear: SOAK is redefining what a nail appointment can feel like.

Wellness Is the New Luxury

One of the strongest themes throughout the Spring/Summer issue is intentional wellness.

SOAK continues to lead with a wellness-first philosophy focused on:

  • Clean, medically-conscious salon practices

  • High-end, non-toxic products

  • Elevated hygiene standards

  • Customizable self-care rituals

  • Emotional wellness through beauty experiences

The issue features insights from local wellness experts, including dermatologist Dr. Jennifer Janiga and podiatrist Dr. Michael Aramini, both of whom emphasize the importance of proper nail care, salon sanitation, and preventative foot wellness.

The magazine also highlights partnerships with local wellness-focused businesses including:

  • Studio Sculpt Reno

  • Prude & Boujee skincare studio

  • Revival Medicine’s women’s wellness specialists

  • Tutu School Reno

Together, these collaborations reinforce SOAK’s belief that wellness is never one-size-fits-all — it’s personal, emotional, physical, and deeply connected to everyday rituals.

Nail Trends We’re Loving This Season

This issue also introduces SOAK’s newest mood-based nail art collections centered around:

  • Balance

  • Growth

  • Clarity

  • Confidence

  • Creativity

Think airy blues, soft neutrals, botanical greens, playful abstract details, and bold confidence-driven reds — all designed to help guests “feel it, wear it, and SOAK it in.”

The magazine also spotlights Dazzle Dry, SOAK’s newest healthier nail obsession — a non-toxic, cruelty-free polish system that dries in just five minutes without UV light.

Cocktails, Mocktails & The SOAK Lounge Experience

Of course, no SOAK experience would be complete without the lounge.

This issue unveils a refreshed libation menu featuring:

  • Espresso Martinis

  • Momaritas

  • Pink Drinks

  • Tropical Drops

  • Rainbow-inspired seasonal cocktails

  • Elevated mocktails and spirit-free wellness beverages

At SOAK, the goal has never been just nails. It’s about creating an atmosphere where guests can fully relax, celebrate, reconnect, and enjoy themselves.

More Than a Nail Salon

Throughout every page of the Spring/Summer issue, one message remains consistent: SOAK is about people.

From spotlighting longtime clients and team bonding traditions to supporting local nonprofits and prioritizing ethical salon practices, this issue reflects SOAK’s commitment to community, wellness, and meaningful experiences.

As owner Shannon Dunlap shares in her letter to readers, SOAK was created as a sanctuary where luxury, health, relaxation, and human connection all intersect.

And this season’s magazine may be the best reflection of that vision yet.

Sip. SOAK. Relax.
