Pedicures and Life
Pedicures as defined by the Merriam and Webster‘s dictionary is the care of feet, toes and nails. Pedicures aren’t just an activity women engage in to talk with their friends, but to relax and to feel exhilarated from the stress of day to day life, men do it too.
My first few days at college all the walking had made my feet ache and my arch had started to slip. So my friend had told me to go get my nails done with her, so I went and I found myself getting one as well. She first submerged my feet in the warm water to soak them then she turned on the jets on. The water felt amazing, tickling my feet and ankles. Then she removed my feet from the water and scrubbed and rinsed them. Then she gave my feet the most amazing massage I had ever gotten. She explained that feet are like the body the toes are our heads, the ball of the foot is our shoulder and the whole length of our feet is our spine. Then it all made sense to me no wonder when your feet hurt your whole body aches, because it’s like a mini body itself. When I tell people I love to get pedicures they think I’m crazy, and then when their birthdays come up I give them a gift card to a spa that is just enough to get them a pedicure. Then when I ask them if they enjoyed it they always do and schedule future appointments, but these where the people who had thought I was crazy because I loved pedicures so much. It tickles me I think about my guy friend whom I gave a gift card to and now he expects one for every major holiday, but he was saying that pedicures aren’t masculine but they have Mr. Pedicures and Mr. and Mrs. Pedicures as well as many more.
Whoever invented pedicures I would like to give them an award because we get our hair done our feet should get special treatment too. Therefore pedicures aren’t just for women but are for everyone man or woman. Both men and women wear earrings, what’s so different about getting a pedicure? We should all try to open our minds to something new, but don’t expect a gift card from me through the mail!
