What do you get at each pedicure price?

Every pedicure begins with the essentials and builds from there.

  • Just Need a Break, $40: relaxing foot soak, nail trimming and shaping, cuticle care, callus smoothing, lotion application and regular polish of choice.
  • Finally, Some Me Time, $50: adds a sea salt soak, sugar scrub, mud masque and massage cream.
  • Don't Text Me, I'm Relaxing, $60: adds a CBD-mint treatment, collagen sock, hot towel wrap and a 10-minute massage.
  • Melt My Stress Away, $75: adds an organic product treatment, therapeutic hot stone massage, deep relaxation treatment and a 15-minute massage.
  • I Deserve This, $90: adds an organic product treatment, hot neck wrap, steamed eye mask, 20-minute massage and ultimate relaxation experience.

Guests choose from nine scents: lavender, jasmine, cucumber, coco-honey, mango, vitamin, lemon, green tea and pomegranate.

What makes a pedicure cost more?

The biggest factors are the level of the ritual and the add-ons you choose. A longer massage or extra treatments take more time and product, so they cost more.

  • Gel polish instead of regular polish.
  • French finish or design on the toes.
  • Paraffin treatment, collagen socks, hot stone massage or extra massage time.
  • Removal of existing gel polish before your service.

Prices also differ from salon to salon depending on location, setting and what is included.

Which pedicure is worth it for you?

The right pedicure depends on how much time you have and what you want from the visit. Just Need a Break is a tidy, polished refresh. Finally, Some Me Time adds exfoliation and a masque for feet that feel dry. The three longer rituals, from Don't Text Me, I'm Relaxing to I Deserve This, are best when you want a longer, more relaxing visit, and many guests find the extra massage time the highlight.

How much should you budget for a tip?

Most guests in the United States tip 15 to 20 percent of the service price. On the $40 Just Need a Break pedicure, that is about $6 to $8, and on the $90 I Deserve This pedicure, about $13.50 to $18. See more examples in our guide on how much to tip at a nail salon.

Questions, answered.

How much is a basic pedicure?

Just Need a Break, our basic pedicure, is $40. It includes a relaxing foot soak, nail trimming and shaping, cuticle care, callus smoothing, lotion application and regular polish of choice. Add-ons such as gel polish or design are extra.

Does gel polish cost extra on a pedicure?

Yes, gel polish is an add-on to the pedicure at our salons. It costs more than regular polish but usually lasts longer on the toes. Check the booking page for the current add-on price at your salon.

Is a more expensive pedicure worth it?

It depends on what you want from the visit. Higher-priced rituals add more massage time, hot towels, hot stones or masques. Many guests choose them for a longer, more relaxing appointment, while Just Need a Break suits a quick, polished refresh.

Do men pay the same for a pedicure?

Pedicure pricing is based on the service, not who is in the chair. Many men choose Just Need a Break or Finally, Some Me Time for tidy nails and smoother feet. Our pedicures for men guide covers what to expect.

Should I tell my technician about health conditions before a pedicure?

Yes. If you have diabetes, circulation problems, broken skin, nail fungus or are pregnant, check with your doctor first and tell your technician before the service so they can adjust the treatment for you.
