What Happens During a Pedicure? Steps in All Five Types

What happens during a pedicure depends on which one you book. Nailed It Spa in Fresno has five pedicures, from 45 to 90 minutes, each with its own steps. Super Silky includes a sea salt soak, Deluxe a bubbling soak, and Mega the volcano spa treatment, which no other pedicure here includes.

Should you choose regular polish or gel?

Every pedicure comes with regular polish, or gel for $15 more. Gel often lasts longer than regular polish, which on toes usually lasts around two weeks.

Pick the finish when you book. Open shoes help regular polish set without smudging. If you choose gel, ask your technician whether closed shoes are fine.

What should you tell the salon when you book?

Tell the salon which pedicure you want and whether you want regular polish or gel. Those two choices set the time and the price.

If you have a color or design in mind, bring a photo. If you have pain, a skin or foot health concern, diabetes or allergies, or you are pregnant, ask a doctor or podiatrist first and tell the salon when you book.
