I can't believe it took 40-odd years...
For me to get my first pedicure. They rock!

When I was in Budapest, I had a massage by a 60 year old Hungarian man wearing nothing more than a cloth apron. Pedicures are nothing on the potential gayness scale compared to that experience.

OK, that's 2 so far. Anyone else want to share something they probably shouldn't?

I had a pedicure about two years ago...my wife bought one for me while my sis-in-law bought one for my brother. We justified it by watching football while the experts worked on our toenails...made us feel more manly. Still, it was pretty fooking awesome.

Ah, the thing only a man insecure with his sexuality would say! Seriously, it's like an awesome foot massage. The toenail polish is just a plus.

I don't see how chicks paint their own toenails. I mean, have you ever tried to paint toenails? Especially the pinky toe.
There is more skill involved there than you can possibly imagine. |

I'm convinced that painting toenails well requires at least as much athletic ability as playing in the WNBA.

The odds of me ever getting a pedicure are zero because:
1) I'm way too ticklish. 2) I'm not a cork sucker.

Pedicures do rock. I haven't had one since my back healed up though... (When you can't reach your feet and are in a cumbersome brace, you do what you gotta...)

Well, I had a pretty substantial gift certificate to one of those fancy Elizabeth Arden spas that I needed to redeem before the end of the year, so I finally went for a reflexology massage and a facial.
I have to say that these corporate upscale places are really big on upselling--recommending treatments the next step up from what you signed up for, getting on a schedule, etc. They are always pushing the official product line too. In a lot of ways, they're even worse than auto repair shops. But the reflexology was awesome--I usually hate massages since I'm pretty squeamish in general when it comes to heavy pressure required by massage, especially when it comes to my spinal column. The facial was good too--much pricier than what I've paid for in the past, but it was of suitably higher quality than what I've experienced in the past. |

I didn't see this answered, so I figured I'd chime in (my toes are Maryland red at the moment ). Basically, it entails a really good washing of the feet (including exfoliation) and a foot and lower-leg massage. They clean up the toenails, clipping them neatly, and can paint the toenails, or put clear-coat on them (to make them stronger and keep them looking good longer) or do nothing (though quite often they do put the clear-coat on, regardless of gender). Usually when you go, you're seated in a massage chair, too, so it's really just a great relaxation opportunity. I'm extremely ticklish on my feet, so it's always a game with me to see how long I can go without giggling or kicking my foot in reflex, but I still go fairly regularly. I've found that since I had my ankle fused, the massage actually helps work out some of the stiffness in my ankle, stiffness I can't work out on my own (and it's cheaper than a full-body massage). /tk

I am not gona say its gay or make a funny referance to queerness but before you see me ever use the words Elizabeth Arden spas or get a pedicure I put the muzzel of a shotgun in my mouth and pull the trigger.
This thread also goes to prove Americans have WAAAAAAAYYYYYYY to much disposable income. I woul go buy the bum on the corner a BigMac before I paid some dude to play with my toes.  |

I painted my own toenails and fingernails bright pink once while drunk and I did quite the awesome job of it. The girls were impressed, anyway.

Never had one. I did wake up with my toe nails painted with glow in the dark nail polish a month ago though. Falling asleep first in my house is not always the best thing to do.

Were they impressed enough that you got some? If not, you were drunk and they weren't all that impressed...... You might have tried a navy blue or something other than the pink, also.

Ya know, I could never get a pedicure. I have an abnormal fear of people touching my feet... no tickling, no touching my toes, nothing. My dad used to pull on my toes and crack them like he did his knuckles, and it was painful, absolutely painful. I don't think I could get a manicure either because when my mom used to cut my nails, she'd cut them so low that she'd cut the flesh and I'd bleed.
No way, not ever. |

I've been giving myself pedicures to save a little cash...recession and all that. I would give anything for a professional pedicure with a massage chair and a glass of wine right about now.

I don't know if I would ever get a pedicure, but what's the world coming to where like 75% of people I know are grossed out by other's feet? I have no problem with feet, maybe it's because mine are the softest, sexiest man feet of all-time. But I'll go down on any chick's foot. Is that weird?
