Had my first pedi this year and have gone back twice more. It is a Vietnamese salon in town and they take great care of me. Didn't know what I was missing...now use a pedi as a treat. My daughter laughs at me and accuses me of the household estrogen having gotten into my blood. LOL. Originally Posted by CS25

The other aspect is the lady who works my feet likes to flirt very subtly. She will speak in hush tone with the cohorts using her native language for a while...then drop on me that the other ladies are accusing her of spending extra time with me.

I always ask for the same technician by name... I ask for her since she did well the first time. She is cute and she does take her time. Clever lady to keep me coming back to her and I have tipped fairly well.
Now I have to ask. Where can I get a pedicure with a happy ending?

I think she uses that line to make you feel that you are having more time with her and she'll get a bigger tip. I think they probably help each other out that way.

My question is for the men. Do you get regular manicures and/or pedicures? With many companies popping up geared towards men's personal grooming like:

John Allan's http://johnallans.com/

The Boardroom http://boardroomsalon5.reachlocal.net/

and

Hammer and Nails http://www.hammerandnails-salon.com/

Do you prefer a more manly setting? Or will any nail salon do?

Personally, I love a well groomed man. Originally Posted by JessicaKnightly

I was never impressed with a barber shop shave.

OP...to answer your questions....I have not tried one of the manly establishments you've linked to. I like the level of service where I go though it's my only experience from an establishment perspective. But I found them doing a Google search and using review ratings to find one that had much positive feedback. Having thought about it now, however, I will try a competitor to draw comparisons.

I now go on a certain regular schedule...about quarterly...because I just can't get the same smooth feet and cut nails on my own...if I could I would...but they do a much better job than I can myself. Kinda like sex...better with a provider than alone!😜. LOL.

What a great post! I love hearing about you guys splurging on this.

Years ago, I was a full service hairdresser and did mani/pedi's. My favorite client was a professional guy who came in and got just the basic soak, cuticle push-back, trim and buff to a shine. He would literally fall asleep in the chair, even snoring sometimes
I think our salon charged about $20 back then and he'd give me $50. Occasionally he'd splurge on a scalp massage too and then I'd get $100. I loved that guy
Would that be a L 1/2? Foot rub and a scalp massage. I will go back for my second pedicure befor going to San Antonio for the party. Is there a nail buff/polish that will make my nails look even better?
Had my first after a hip replacement when I could not do it myself. Been a regular since. Great for my feet and she is blonde, 21, nice set of Cs and usually wears low cut tops. The view from the chair is so spectacular that I often have to look away to avoid embarrassing myself. I think I need an appointment soon.
Off to ARK for my next pedicure. The Asians don't do much for me. I guess it is flash backs and RVN whore houses. That beedle nut just gives me night mares.

Tucson - too damn funny!

For a while I was hitting a private 'spa' setup in an apartment. It was great. Basic mani&pedi 1st 30 mins, then off to a 30min massage wiht a L1 ending -all for $60 + Tip. I want weekly before they disappeared

Now hit a regular nail place for regular maintenance 1-2x a month. Then if I am going to be with someone I know loves it, Ill go get a Brazilian and be full on smooth for that session - kinda hot getting waxed - yep im into it!
My arthritis got so bad I couldn't trim my toes. My daughters set me up where they go. My feet have not felt this good in years. I have wondered about waxing but I would fee awkward doing it..

Oh once you get waxed - you'll be hooked! I was nervous the first time but this older asian lady made it like it was no big deal and even gave me a pretty good slap on the ass and said "you eat too much - big butt"! Ha!

Now getting the first full Brazilian was a bit more sensitive and difficult to not get an erection. Between the pain (yes a little BDSM tendency) and the very hot - IMHO - Romanian lady that was waxing me, I just had to be red-faced - but is was still quite enjoyable.

Just go for it - at least the ass waxing - especially before getting a great massage - it is truly amazing the extra sensation and smoothness
