Castro Nail Salon doesn't autoclave they use UV which if it's over a long enough period is an acceptable method of killing most microbes and fungus. Autoclave set at over 115-130 degrees (depending on the wrap) is always the safest bet. They do like to cut the cuticles which I never let them do. They have the whirl pool tubs and they clean the traps, and cycle the tubs with a disinfectant that I didn't investigate too closely.

HandJob is further up the Castro. Slightly more expensive and they use basins which I prefer.
