A manicure and pedicure, often referred to as a mani-pedi, is a beauty treatment that involves filing, shaping, and coloring nails to create a polished and groomed appearance. The treatment typically includes the following steps:
- Filing and shaping : This creates an even and clean appearance of the nails.
- Skin treatment : A skin treatment, such as exfoliation, removes dead skin cells and prevents fungal infections of the nail bed.
- Cuticle treatment : This helps with the overall maintenance and appearance of the nails.
- Color : The final step involves applying nail polish or gel to give the nails their desired color and shine
Mani-pedis can be found in various nail salons and spas, offering a range of services and products to cater to different preferences and budgets. Some common options include classic manicures, manicures with gel polish or dip, vinylux polish, OPI Infinity Shine, and no-chip gel colors
. These treatments can be beneficial for people with chronic conditions, such as eczema or psoriasis, as a skilled nail technician can use special techniques and products to reduce the risk of infection and provide a relaxing massage as part of the treatment
