Manicure

A manicure is a beauty treatment that focuses on enhancing the appearance of the hands and nails. Typically performed at a nail salon or spa, this pampering procedure involves various steps to groom, shape, and beautify the nails and surrounding skin.

​

The first step of a manicure is often soaking the hands in warm, soapy water to soften the cuticles and nails. The nails are then shaped and trimmed according to the client's preference. Cuticles are gently pushed back or trimmed, and any excess skin is tidied up. Some manicures may include a hand massage to promote relaxation and improve blood circulation.

​

After the basic grooming, nail polish is applied. This can include a base coat, one or more layers of colored polish, and a top coat for added shine and durability. Clients may choose from a wide array of nail polish colors or opt for a natural, clear finish.

Manicures can also include additional treatments such as nail art, gel polish application, or the application of artificial nails like acrylics or gels for those seeking longer-lasting and more elaborate designs.

​

Beyond the cosmetic benefits, manicures contribute to overall hand hygiene and care. Regular manicures can help maintain healthy nails and cuticles, providing both aesthetic and therapeutic benefits for those seeking well-groomed and polished hands.
