Inside a TapLook Quebec Workday, Bringing Nail Care to Seniors Across Quebec City

For many seniors in Quebec City, simple tasks like visiting a nail salon can become challenging. That’s why TapLook Quebec exists, to make professional nail care accessible, safe, and convenient through our mobile nail services, delivered right to your home.

Each day, our dedicated technicians hit the road to serve elderly clients who deserve more than just beautiful nails, they deserve comfort, care, and human connection.

Morning Routine: More Than Just Packing a Kit

A day with TapLook Quebec begins with careful preparation. Our technician checks their appointment list, reviews any special client notes, and sanitizes every tool, from nail clippers to polish brushes. Only medical-grade sanitation methods are used, because hygiene and safety come first, especially when working with seniors.

Before leaving, the technician ensures the mobile kit includes a variety of polishes (many seniors prefer softer, elegant shades), moisture-rich creams for aging skin, and single-use items to avoid cross-contamination. Every detail is planned to make the client feel safe, respected, and pampered.

First Appointments – Personal, Quiet, Comfortable

Our first client today is Mr. Bernard, a retired teacher in Sainte-Foy. He lives alone and struggles with arthritis, making it difficult to care for his toenails. He greets us warmly at the door, and we help him settle into his favorite chair. Our technician sets up a clean mat, arranges tools, and gently begins his pedicure, paying close attention to thickened nails, dry skin, and signs of pressure points.

He doesn’t talk much, but as the service continues, he begins to open up, sharing stories of when he taught high school history. For him, this isn’t just a grooming service; it’s a reminder that someone cares.

Midday Visits – Couples and Care Homes

Next, we visit a senior couple in Limoilou. They’ve booked TapLook’s “Couple Care Package”, which includes manicures and pedicures for both. The husband likes his nails neatly trimmed, while the wife chooses a soft lavender polish. They laugh, chat, and enjoy the quiet company of our technician who’s worked with them for months.

Later, we stop by a long-term care facility in Lévis where TapLook is welcomed by staff and residents alike. One of our regular clients there is a woman recovering from a stroke. The technician adapts the service to accommodate her physical needs, offering support, adjusting posture, and working slowly with great care.

Late Afternoon –  Final Stops and Gentle Finishing Touches

In Beauport, we meet our last client of the day: a lovely woman in her 80s who always requests a rose-colored polish. She says it reminds her of when she used to go dancing. Our technician carefully performs a full manicure, massages her hands, and listens to her favorite radio station in the background. When it’s time to leave, she smiles and says, “See you next month, darling.”
