About pedicure
A pedicure takes care of the feet and toenails: a warm soak, nail cutting and shaping, cuticle tidying, hard skin removal from heels and pads, exfoliation, a foot and lower-leg massage and a finish of polish or gel. It is a treatment people book as much for comfort as for appearance, and it is a staple before holidays and in the summer months.
Menus usually include a classic pedicure, a luxury version with a mask and longer massage, and a gel pedicure that stays glossy for four to six weeks. Medical foot problems such as ingrown toenails, verrucas or thickened nails are the territory of a podiatrist rather than a beauty therapist, and a good salon will say so rather than treat them.
Allow 45 minutes to an hour. Wear open-toed shoes to the appointment if you are having regular polish. For hygiene, look for salons that use single-use liners or disinfect foot spas between every client.

Where to find it in Manchester
The City Centre and Deansgate have the polished salons and the aesthetic clinics, with HydraFacials, skin peels and laser courses booked around office hours, while Spinningfields serves a lunchtime trade in gel nails and brow tidies. The Northern Quarter is home to the independent nail artists and lash technicians, often in shared studios above bars and vintage shops, and it is the best part of the city for detailed nail art and Russian volume lashes. Salford Quays is busier midweek, with appointments fitted around MediaCityUK, and Didsbury is residential, with long-standing salons whose clients have been booking the same therapist for years.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a pedicure cost?
Usually £25 to £40 for a classic pedicure outside London, and £40 to £60 in central London. Gel pedicures are about £5 to £10 more than regular polish.
How often should I have a pedicure?
Every four to six weeks keeps hard skin and nails in check. Gel on toes often lasts the whole interval; regular polish chips sooner.
Should I shave my legs before a pedicure?
Better not to on the day. Freshly shaved skin is more open, and the foot soak and scrub can sting. Shave a day or two before instead.
