Putting Your Best Foot (and Hand) Forward

« Read the full blog

Remember being little and having your friends over for a girly slumber party? There would be popcorn and music, of course, and usually messy manicures and pedicures with colors like Fire Engine Red and Rosy Posy Pink. Now, even though we’re all grown up, we still CRAVE the simple thrill of having our hands and feet tended to – except we’ve learned to leave the painting and prettying to our trusty esthetician pals. Here are three Austin salons that are proof of how this fun activity has gone from little girl leisure to pure lady luxe.

2110 S Lamar Blvd
If strong chemicals and abrasive smells are not part of your ideal pampering session, Pure Nail is the environmentally-friendly salon for you. The salon uses only formaldehyde free products and polishes for mani-pedi’s that will have you looking and feeling fresh. How’s that for eco-chic?

4301 W William Cannon Dr
This South Austin salon is everything its name describes, with a setting so modernly sleek, you may find yourself opting for daring turquoise toes or neon nails! The spot is full-service, so after soaking in the luxurious hand spas you can complete your rejuvenation with a facial, brow-shaping, cut, or color.

204 Colorado St
milk + honey understands the hectic life of an urban gal, which is why they offer shorter “buff + go” mani’s and pedi’s to give you a quick shine in between meetings. But if you’re looking for the full treatment, there is also the lux version which includes a soak, exfoliant, a warm wrap in essential oils, and a massage.
