I actually thought I did some work. I know it is still not enough but definitely more than nothing.
How much of the text you should have to fill in the content with the keywords?

That is a hard one to answer, SEO is not a set rule as most people think, some industries need more than others, for example if you are a Wombat Hunter in Wolverhampton, it would need hardly anything! (Obviously)

Your site is pretty and looks like a salon/hair type site, but it looks to be heavily flash, which means you will have to do a lot more SEO than one that is non-flash, as google cannot read flash it is quite hard to ensure your site ranks highly in searches.

I am not an SEO expert by any stretch of the imagination, but my sites do quite well, it is just a case of sticking to the basics, adding titles and alt tags to every image (keywords, such as 'Hair salon Milton Keynes' etc).

It is a hard one to answer as there is so much that needs doing in the SEO area!

Flash elements are only present in the navigation menu

Does that mean that the navigational buttons have no alt tags, title tags, descriptions?

Change the page names to be SEF (search engine friendly) ie /prices.html would be /lina-hair-salon-milton-keynes-prices.html or whatever you want to appear on searches for!

Make sense?

Yes of course it makes sense

I just do not have an option to add ALT to the nav bar.

In terms of the file names, I though the page title is important and the actual file name isnt it?

Also, how would SE relate to the "-" between words like you suggested?

Do you mean tags etc for each button or what?

What is the point of making the above words as key words?
Nobody is going to search for "Lina" in google but for "hairdressers in Milton Keynes" I think.
Unless I am missing something
