here are a lot of Nepali women don't have an appointment every Saturday at the beauty salon for a manicure and pedicure.
There is nothing more sensible than taking precious time out for the actual “pedicure” rather than watching daily soaps. But then most women complain about spending another half-hour waiting for the polish to dry… only to realize that the soles of their feet still have the unique feeling of chipped away cement… and the cuticles are torn away and then there's the complain of the polish starting to nick before the weekend is over.
Let's face it. Most salons don’t exactly know the technique of giving you a perfect pedicure and those who know lack on patience and hard work.
Check out if these beauty parlors that you visit really give you an entire treatment.
It is essential that the feet should be thoroughly soaked, scraped, buffed, poked, pushed, and painted until they looked flawless.
The Nail Polish should be wildly “painted” all over nails. Then, another shade has to be layered over it to create the “perfect” custom color. Finally, the slop is delicately obliterated with a cotton-wrapped orangewood stick doused with polish remover. The result is saturated color that makes your nails appear longer, gets side walls even and avoids that bumpy "grow-out" polish ridge around cuticles.

Here are some advices to maintain your pedicure |

Have a weekly soak in tepid water. Then, use a pumice to gently rub soles, corns, the ball of your foot, and anywhere that is prone to callus build-up.
Remember to always dry feet thoroughly with a soft towel after a bath or shower. And, be sure to fully dry between each toe to avoid dead skin build-up and fungus growth.
Cream nightly to help keep feet soft and prevent cuticles from looking dry. Push cuticles back with a cotton-wrapped orangewood stick; never use metal tools that can hurt nail bed.
Keep the polish looking fresh with one good coat of polish and topcoat every four to five days.
Darker colored polishes diminish imperfections by absorbing light and are easier to touch-up. The more transparent you go, the better shape your nails have to be in.
When you put shoes on after walking around barefoot on a hot day, avoid enclosed shoes like sneakers or pumps that make feet perspire and swell. Opt for flip-flops, slides or sandals.
Never use powder on your feet before putting shoes on. |
