Classic pedicure

Classic pedicure is a traditional method of foot care that includes soaking the feet and treating the skin with manual tools. Despite the popularity of modern techniques, this method is still used in certain cases.

What is a classic pedicure?

The procedure begins with a foot soak that softens the skin. After that, the specialist treats the feet, removes rough skin, and works with the nails and cuticles using professional tools.

This approach helps soften even dense skin quickly and allows for effective treatment.
