Nail Pricing

I'm in Northern California and I pay $60 for a gel mani/pedi. It includes a hot stone massage, paraffin wax and gel polish. My area is saturated with nail salons, so you get a lot for less.

I'm in So California, its about 35 for a fill for my acrylics with gel coating. 45 for brand new set.

I live in Illinois and get my nails (no chip mani and just a regular pedi) done religiously. It definitely depends on your location, and even the salon. $28 for a no chip manicure and $25 for a regular pedicure is what I usually pay. Sometimes I'll just get a polish change on my toes, and that's only $8. They still cut, file and paint, the just don't soak, file the bottom of your feet and massage your legs.

French is always an up-charge, or always has been in my case.

I get sculpted acrylic. Initial application was 50 fill-in is 40. It depends where you're located and what you have done.

For a gel mani/pedi I pay $95 **face palm** To me, it's worth it because everything they use is always brand new & they keep everything super clean. So, I'm not afraid of contracting any type of fungus. I advise to make sure that you pay very close attention to the way these salons maintain their cleanliness.

$110 for no chip and pedicure in Chicago

I feel like after seeing these prices I will never again complain about mine. Lol

Depends on the area. I go here in nc and for just my real nails I pay about $60 for a mani and pedi with gel polish. For artificial nails, I've paid $80.

Grrr.... I wish I could get gel. I've tried several times, but I have a severe adverse reaction to them!

SNS dip is the way to go. $40 for mani and last over a month. (Better than gel/healthier for the nail).

Pedicure is about $30. That includes hot stones and the wax dip.

I am in South Georgia

I get the dip powder french manicure for $30 in Texas and regular pedi for $35 as well. I get the hot wax, hot towel, exfoliating scrub and hot stones for the pedi because I have naturally rough feet.

I have not really heard about SNS but the healthier route sounds nice!

Two hours and $100 later, hands and toes.

What do y'all think?

This depends on where you go. However, so does quality. Today I paid 45 for powder on top of tips. Next time I go, I'll just get the powder. If you haven't done it, try it. It stays on, requires 0 drying time, and is allegedly good for your nails!

@lkg72 - I also pay for no chip mani & ped with a few extras runs me $150 in Chicago. In San Antonio though I only pay about $110.

Pricing changes so much but, french is always an extra charge. I would recommend acrylic or powder if you get french though because it will stay alot better than polish

It's gel, does that matter? They normally last a good amount of time. I've only ever done reg polish and gel.

Ombre Pink and White $45 in Decatur, GA. Pedicure $18 with acrylic polish

I got ombre because the technician insisted that was the new style and the tips are old now

Yeah French might be old fashioned but that's okay, I'm stuck in a rut there
