Is getting a pedicure really worth it?

I'm thinking about getting a pedicure... but it costs $30 and that's a lot of money. I was just wondering if anyone out there could give me some input as to whether it's really worth it. Thanks!Is getting a pedicure really worth it?
Pedicures are the best way to ensure you don't get ingrown toenails, fight odours, and keep your feet soft.


$30 is a little steep for a pedicure, but it's not as though you would do it more than once a month. In the winter, when you aren't wearing open-toed shoes, you could get away with one every two months instead.





The pedicure should entail as follows:


* a foot soak


* cleaning off old polish


* scraping under nails and around cuticles


* cutting and filing nails


* cutting cuticles


* buffing balls, heels, and sides


* paring any dead or dry skin


* polishing toenails


* applying a moisturizing cream to feet AS WELL AS legs





A pedicure is a great way to unwind for 45 minutes and some places even have massage chairs!





I'm not sure if you've heard the saying or not but ';a man can always tell if a woman takes care of herself by looking at her toenails';





Do it!! It's well worth it.Is getting a pedicure really worth it?
I love getting pedicures for the pampering portion of it. They massage your legs and feet and you get a warm soak. It is awesome. As for the ';look,'; it is so easy to do yourself.





All you need is a pumice stone, a really good cuticle pusher, and sharr cuticle nippers.





In the bath or at the end of the shower, pumice the hard parts of your foot. Everyone has different hard parts. Mine are on my heels, side of my big toes, and my pinkie toe. I also pumice the corners of each toe. Then use your great citicle pusher and push all of your cuticles back. Then nip the dead cuticles that you pushed back. Do a clear base coat, polish and topcoat and you have an awesome at home pedicure.





Other tips...dont file or cut your toenails in a ';rainbow'; shape. Make sure you can see the corners of each toenail so you dont get ingrowns...i get them all the time. Get a buffer for nails...they look like a nailfile with 3 or 4 sides that you buff your nails to make them smooth.
I think so =) I love getting manicures/pedicures when I have the extra money. It's nice to be pampered once in awhile. Plus, your feet will be so much smoother and prettier afterward =)





PS- $30 is about average for a pedicure.
Ya its not worth that much . Try another place that could be cheaper. You can paint your toenails by yourself. To get a french pedicure/manicure just put tape under the part that you want to be white and then paint it. It makes a perfect line and then just paint clear polish over it
YES!!! (=


i love to get pedicures. they are SO relaxing. you get to sit in a massage chair while someone compleatly pampers your feet/legs. most of the time they will have various magazines and tv. its one of my happy escape places(=


also you should be able to choose any color you want


30 is pretty normal where i come from-it usu. costs me that much but i usu. get a french pedi. w/o french it usu. is 25.





hope you decide to go for it!!!
i think so! it feels sooo good and it's relaxing!
pedicures are great i would never pay $30 but its a very relaxing experience... but make sure you know what your getting for $30 not just being ripped off.. does it include a massage, a honey leg wrap, anything special or is it a basic soak and paint? check before spending that much
