Pedicures, Not for Women Only

Many of the ladies have long known the luxury of a spa pedicure, but could a pedicure actually have health benefits not only for the ladies, but for the men too?

Your feet take a beating, and if you happen to be carrying extra weight on your frame, your feet get the brunt of it. The average person takes 8,000 to 10,000 steps a day, which adds up to about 115,000 miles over a lifetime. Comparing in terms of cars, not every one will drive a car that has 115,000 miles, especially if it hasn’t been properly maintained.

Whether you go to a salon or do self pedicures, there are health benefits in properly maintaining your feet. Cutting, clipping and cleaning of the nails prevents nails from growing inward and causing infection. The elimination of dirt and bacteria from your feet will also help prevent nail diseases and disorders and helps eliminate foot odor.

Exfoliation, or the sloughing off of dead skin cells, prevents the cells from accumulating and causing bunions or corns, which can be painful. Removal of the dead skins cells also encourages newer skin cell growth which creates a smoother, more appealing foot.

The most enjoyable part of the salon pedicure is the massage. The lotion and/or oils used in the massage moisturize the newly exfoliated skin, and massaging promotes circulation in the calves and feet. It can reduce foot pain from being on one’s feet all day and can help maintain the health and performance of the muscles. And let’s face it, a nice time out for this pampering can reduce stress.

Nail color is optional. It is fun for the ladies and avoided by the men. Men, obviously you don’t have to get the color, but consider for a moment some of the fun you could have. If you’re a sports fan, you could have your nails painted like baseballs, basketballs, or soccer balls. You could even have them done as dice. (although it would be recommended to have the baby toe be the one and the big toe be the five.) You don’t have to leave it on, but imagine her surprise when you show up at home that night with a Superman logo on your toes?

Whether or not you get the color, the heath benefits of pedicures are not imagined and are a part of proper foot care. Gone are the days when this kind of foot care was only a luxury only for the ladies. Everyone deserves

A Manicure is a Great Gift!

When you are trying to decide on a special gift, a manicure gift certificate is a great idea. It can be the perfect choice for a person who is hard to buy for, and they can use the certificate whenever it is convenient. A manicure is a great gift for the holiday season, birthdays or any other special occasion. It's an easy way to indulge someone without spending a lot of money and it's very thoughtful. Everyone enjoys a little pampering!

If you already know where your friend gets her nails done, you can purchase a gift certificate from her favorite nail salon. If not, you may want to get one from the salon that you go to or try a salon that's near her home or place of work. You can get yourself one too and schedule the manicures at the same time. Spending the time together can make the gift that much more special. Planning a spa party is becoming very popular and can be done with small or large groups.

If you want to package this gift nicely, try wrapping up a bottle of scented hand lotion in a box. Attach the envelope with the gift certificate to the package by punching a hole in the corner and threading some ribbon through. Another option is to get a manicure/pedicure gift certificate and tuck it inside a soft pair of socks or slippers for use after the pedicure. Use your imagination.

Teenage girls can be hard to buy for but they love being pampered. A manicure is a terrific gift for a graduation or before a special dance. Don't rule out a manicure for a man either -- it can be a relaxing choice for the right person. There are many occasions where this type of service would make a great gift, so keep it in mind for when you are pressed for time during the holidays or when you just want to do something special for a friend or family member. You can even mail a gift certificate if you won't be able to attend a party or shower, and sending gift certificates also keeps packaging to a minimum.

If you often find yourself stuck searching for last-minute gifts, you may want to keep a couple of manicure gift certificates in the house -- just make sure that they don't have an expiration date. Gift Certificates can be purchased both in the salon and online at www.halosnails.com. Alone or bundled with a pedicure, gifting someone a manicure is sure to be appreciated!
