Arrive with clean feet but skip heavy lotions for 24 hours, since oils reduce polish adhesion. Remove old gel or acrylic at least 2 days earlier if possible, or tell the technician what product is on your nails. Bring reference photos for shape and color. Avoid trimming your own cuticles the same day to prevent small cuts.
Basic pedicures range from 25 to 45 units of local currency, while spa versions with masks and massage reach 60 to 90. Gel polish adds 10 to 20, and callus removal for severe buildup can add another 10. Location, rent, product brand, and technician experience explain most of the gap. Always ask for a written breakdown.
Most clients book every 4 to 6 weeks to maintain shape and callus control. People with fast-growing nails or heavy callus buildup may need visits every 3 weeks. If you wear open shoes daily or run often, expect shorter intervals. Waiting more than 8 weeks usually requires extra work and longer sessions to restore the feet.
A standard pedicure uses a metal cuticle pusher, nippers, a foot file with 80 to 100 grit, a base coat, coloured polish and a top coat. Foot baths with disposable liners and autoclave-sterilised metal tools indicate proper sanitation. Ask the technician which products and tools they will use before the appointment begins.
Regular polish dries in 10 to 15 minutes but chips within 5 to 7 days. Gel polish cures under a 36 W to 48 W UV or LED lamp in 60 seconds per coat and lasts 14 to 21 days. Gel requires acetone soaking for 10 to 15 minutes during removal, while regular polish wipes off with remover in 1 minute.
Avoid products containing formaldehyde, toluene, dibutyl phthalate or methyl methacrylate. These ingredients appear in some low-cost polishes and acrylic nail systems. Ask the salon for a list of polishes they stock. Most reputable brands publish their ingredient lists online or on the bottle label for you to review.
Standard polish brands last 5 to 7 days without a top coat. Premium polish formulas with a base and top coat last 7 to 10 days. Gel systems from professional lines last 14 to 21 days. Dip powder systems last 21 to 28 days but require acetone removal for 15 to 20 minutes.
A fresh coat of regular polish usually lasts 5 to 7 days before chipping. Gel polish, cured under UV or LED light, can last 14 to 21 days without visible wear. The shape of the nail and the thickness of the application affect durability, so ask how many coats are included and which base and top coat brands are used.
If you have diabetes, circulation issues, fungal nails, or thick calluses, request a medical or podiatric pedicure. The specialist uses sterilized instruments, checks for infections, and avoids sharp blades on diabetic feet. Sessions take 60 to 75 minutes and cost more, but reduce the risk of wounds, ingrown nails, and cross-contamination.
Gel polish resists chips for up to 21 days but requires acetone soaking for 15–20 minutes to remove, which can dry the nail bed. Regular polish dries in 10 to 15 minutes and removes easily, but chips within a week. For events more than 2 weeks away, gel is worth the extra cost; for short-term wear, regular is safer.
