How to educate your clients about the benefits of a professional pedicure
Caring for feet is incredibly important – they are the body’s foundation, and keeping them healthy is a necessary part of overall health.
Feet carry us through life and allow us to walk, work, exercise, drive, and so on. To keep feet healthy is to keep them functioning, and if you don’t take care of feet, they can become cracked, blistered, and even infected.
A professional pedicure is a great way for clients to pamper themselves while ensuring their feet stay in good condition, so they can lead them where they need to go.
Here are five benefits of professional pedicures to tell your clients about:
1. Overall foot health
Pedicures are good for clients’ overall foot health. When clients get a pedicure, the nail technician is able to see everything on the feet and toes – the good, the bad, and the ugly.
The technician can easily examine the feet to see if there are any problems that need to be addressed during the pedicure, like bunions or blisters.
Additionally, the technician can clean those hard-to-reach areas in the toes and remove any dirt or bacteria that could eventually lead to fungal infections.
If there are any pesky calluses, the nail technician will also remove those and moisturise the feet. Removing calluses can actually improve posture because it helps to distribute weight more evenly on the entire foot when standing.
Some pedicures will also have a detox step, which can remove harmful toxins from feet and increase circulation.
2. Supports blood circulation
Professional pedicures often include feet and leg massages, which can support blood circulation in the bottom half of the body.
Not only do these massages feel amazing and help the client to relax, but they also help with getting blood flow down to the legs and feet. This can ease any built up tension, relieve pain in those areas, and improve joint mobility.
3. Moisturises feet
Ensuring feet are properly hydrated is an important facet of overall foot health, and pedicures are the perfect time to ensure every crevice of the foot is moisturised to avoid any dry, cracked skin.
Nail technicians can massage in lotion and oils to moisturise feet and have them feeling super smooth and supple.
Consistently moisturising feet can also help prevent blisters and cracks, which can be incredibly painful to walk on. Moisturising stops nails from splitting too, which we all want to avoid because nail splitting can lead to infection.
4. Relieves stress and promotes relaxation
One of the more obvious benefits of getting a salon pedicure treatment is how relaxing they are. Soaking, cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturising feet will make clients feel renewed and rejuvenated, and they love the opportunity to sit back, relax, and let the technician work their magic.
Pedicures also enhance clients’ confidence because their feet will look brand new and freshly polished. Feeling confident will also contribute to their never-ending journey of self-love – clients will feel good in their skin after their pedicure.
5. Endless design choices
When clients visit a salon for a pedi, they can pick almost any colour and style they want.
Most clients have a few go-to nail polish colours when they paint their nails at home, but getting a salon pedicure gives them the option to choose from a variety of different colours, shades and even designs.
Nail techs can also take a normal pedi to the next level with pedicure nail art – the possibilities are endless.
