Step into spring with a fresh pedicure peeking out from your flip-flops and summery sandals! Here’s a list of places where you can get your tootsies done for just under (and perhaps SLIGHTLY over) R350.

Vanilla Nail Bar

Located in the heart of Linden, you’ll find the Vanilla Nail Bar. All we have heard is great things about this stunning little spot and decided to pay them a visit ourselves. They offer a wide range of services, ranging from manicures, makeup application for events, massages, waxing, micro-brows and even pamper options for the gents and little ones. But today, we’re focusing on the pedicure services. Vanilla Nail Bar offers these pedicure options, depending on what you’re in the mood for, and your budget:

Full Pedicure: No Paint – R240
Full Pedicure: Polish – R290
Full Pedicure: Gel – R360

Sorbet

We know, a pedi article wouldn’t be complete without giving Sorbet a mention! They offer a variety of manis and pedis to suit every budget. A Mini-Me Pedi is perfect for those of us who are always too busy to treat ourselves. It’s a quick soak, file, buff and paint and you get to carry on with the rest of your day. But, if you’re looking to indulge a little, there are more thorough and relaxing pedi treatments to choose from. Sorbet also offers a Power Mani, which is a full manicure treatment, including exfoliation and massage. This is the manicure a girl should get when she’s really spoiling herself.

Mini-Me Pedi – R280
Power Pedi – R355
Just Gelish Pedi – R310
Gelish Mini-Me – R410 (over our budget)

Head to Revive Wellness Spa in Highlands North, Johannesburg, for a well-deserve pamper session.
