Things to know about pedicure
A hard-skin focus suits problem feet better than a quick polish change. Gel toes outlast standard polish through a holiday.
What to expect from a pedicure appointment
A pedicure runs cleanse, shape, cuticle work, an exfoliating scrub, a moisturising massage, and a finish in standard polish or gel. The technician works at a reclined chair or a foot bath, and most appointments take forty-five to sixty minutes. Hard-skin removal is offered as an add-on when needed. Aftercare keeps the heels moisturised and books a fresh pedicure every four to six weeks during summer, every six to eight in cooler months.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a pedicure take?
A standard pedicure runs around forty-five minutes; a spa pedicure with longer soak and massage takes sixty to seventy-five minutes. Gel polish adds about fifteen minutes for the cure cycle.
How often should I get a pedicure?
Every four to six weeks during summer when feet are exposed; every six to eight in cooler months. More frequent visits suit clients with active hard-skin patterns.
What is the difference between a pedicure and a medical pedicure?
A standard pedicure focuses on nail shaping, cuticle work and finish for appearance. A medical or "medi" pedicure focuses on foot health and conditions (ingrown nails, fungal concerns, callus management). Choose by need rather than habit.
How much does a pedicure cost in the UK?
A standard polish pedicure typically runs twenty-five to fifty pounds. A spa pedicure runs thirty-five to seventy-five. Gel adds five to fifteen pounds. Premium central-London nail bars sit at sixty to one hundred. Medical pedicures sit at thirty-five to eighty.
Is the foot bath at a pedicure salon hygienic?
Reputable salons use individual single-use plastic liners in the foot baths, sanitise tools between clients, and never reuse pumice stones. Look for the liner being changed in front of you. If the foot bath shows visible residue between clients, walk away.
