Pedicure
A pedicure is a foot and toenail treatment that typically includes soaking, nail shaping, cuticle care, skin smoothing and polish.
What it is
A cosmetic treatment for feet and toenails. Many salons add a foot massage and a scrub, and some offer gel polish for a longer-lasting finish.
What to expect
Sessions usually last 40 to 75 minutes. A good salon cleans basins between clients and sterilises or provides single-use tools.
What to ask before booking
Ask about hygiene practices. If you have diabetes, circulation problems or foot conditions, check with a health professional first.
