Feet First
Feet in boots does not mean it's time to neglect a pedicure. In fact, it's an equally important time.
Feet sweat being in socks and shoes. Moisture is a breeding ground for bacteria which causes odors. It is imperative to properly remove the dead skin from under the nails, the culprit of stinky feet. It is also time to trim nails a bit shorter as not to bruise the nail bed from our toes hitting the tops and front of our shoes.

Our Essential pedicure is $44 and includes:
• Foot Soak in mineral salts
• Nail Trim
• Removal of dead skin from around and under the nails
• Foot Scrub and filing of dead skin
• Heel Softening Cream and moisturizing
• Paint or Buff & Shine
