Manicure

Your hands and finger nails go through a lot of abuse like constantly being in and out of water being exposed to various household chemicals... we tend to neglect them... we suffer also from a lot of dryness in our hands and fingers...

Some salons offer a simple file and polish, or a more luxurious treatment. Some treatments are really nourishing especially when they use paraffin wax, or a hydrating mask etc.

The other hand is still being soaked in the solution to soften the cuticles. The hand that has just been soaked will have the cuticles tidied as in push back gently and trimmed if necessary.

This hand and fingers are then exfoliated to remove any more dead skin etc. The other hand is thern taken out of the water and dried.

The other hand that has been exfoliated is rinsed and now ready for massage soon. The other hand that has just been soaked will have the cuticles tidied as in push back gently and trimmed if necessary.
