A full set manicure and pedicure typically refers to a comprehensive beauty treatment for both the hands and feet, often including nail enhancements or extensions. Here’s what you can generally expect from each service:
Nail Preparation:
Nails are cleaned, trimmed, and shaped.
Cuticles are softened, pushed back, and trimmed if necessary.
Nail Enhancements or Extensions:
Artificial nails or extensions (acrylic, gel, or dip powder) are applied to add length and strength to the natural nails.
This may involve applying tips or forms, followed by the chosen material to create a natural-looking or dramatic length.
Shaping and Filing:
The artificial nails are shaped and filed to the desired style (square, oval, stiletto, etc.).
Buffing:
Nails are buffed to smooth the surface and prepare for polish application.
Polish Application:
A base coat, color polish, and top coat are applied. Designs, nail art, or French tips can be added as desired.
Moisturizing:
Hands and cuticles are moisturized to maintain skin health and softness.
