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.
Square and oval shapes hold polish better than pointed or stiletto shapes. Round nails resist side cracks for 3 to 4 weeks. Toenails should be cut straight across with 1 mm to 2 mm of free edge. Cutting too short increases the risk of ingrown nails within 1 to 2 weeks.
A basic pedicure ranges from 25 to 45 in many areas. Prices rise by 10 to 20 when you add gel, callus removal, or paraffin wax. Salons in busy districts charge more due to rent. Mobile services add 10 to 25 for travel time and setup. Ask for a written quote before booking.
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.
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.
Ingrown nails appear within 1 to 3 weeks when corners are cut too short or rounded. Fungal infections show as yellow, thick nails 2 to 8 weeks later, often from unsterilized tools. Cuticle damage causes redness and small infections. If pain, swelling, or pus appears, contact a podiatrist and avoid home removal of any skin growth.
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.
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.
At-home kits handle basic trimming and light polish but cannot match professional callus removal or sterilization. Salon visits allow inspection of the nail bed, proper cuticle work, and longer-lasting products. For healthy feet without thick calluses, home care every 2 weeks plus one salon visit per month keeps results consistent and affordable.
A full standard pedicure takes 45 to 60 minutes. Add 15 minutes if you want gel polish or callus removal with an electric file. Express services last 20 to 30 minutes and skip the foot bath and massage. Confirm the duration when you book to plan your visit and avoid rushing the technician.
