so i got talked into getting a Pedicure yesterday and yes im a guy.

I went to Olive Garden today(barefoot of course and with no probelms belive it or not) to meet up with some fellow Unitarians from my church for a memeber's birthday lunch when an older lady invited me to go get a pedicure with her to keep my feet looking "shiney" since i dont like to wear shoes (she offerd and i thought, i guess thatll be alright i guess) ...it wasnt bad at all and there still "shiney"..lol, even after going to the movies and Subway resturant...i may actually do it again somewhere down the road.

PS- and NO i didnt get my toe-nails painted..lol

 

It's all fine, but I'm sure I'd feel self-conscious presenting dirty 'street' feet to be clipped and buffed. I would feel uncomfortable unless I'd washed them first.
Perhaps your feet were clean, I suppose it depends where you'd been first

No harm in going im sure. its great being barefoot and there is also no harm treating your feet. Its a beauty therapist job to make ppl feel the best about their body. Im thrilled that they made you feel comfortable.

 

I think it's funny (or maybe sad) that im not uncomfroable going out in public barefoot at all but i would feel beyond weird if people walked by and saw me getting my feet treated..LOL...luckly for me it was a store inside of a shopping center where people couldnt just "walk by" as you were getting a pedicure...Im gald i did it though

 

I get my toes done at the VA. No prob.....

 

I've had several pedicures through the years and long before other men starting getting them. It takes some guts to go into a salon knowing you are the only guy getting your feet treated! Men of all ages wear flip flops nowadays, so I see nothing wrong in having your nails trimmed and the extra calloused skin removed by some attractive lady. BTW, I too don't go for any polished nails either. I seen painted nails on some male feet, just not my thing.

 

nothing wrong with it at all, women shouldnt be the only ones who get special treatment

only had my nails manicured before but I liked it alot kinda was nice and relaxing

 

I only had a pedicure once, and I'm a girl. I didn't really enjoy it, but I'm sort of ticklish so the buffing and whatnot was mostly just irritating. I prefer foot massages!

I don't think it's weird for guys to get pedicures, though. I see it all over nowadays with "gender roles" becoming more loose.

 

Since deciding to go barefoot, in 2011, I've decided to regularly treat my feet to a pedicure during summer months.

As a male, I don't think there's anything wrong in treating one's feet to a little TLC. They do, after all, carry us everywhere.

In fact, the therapists who treat my feet have all said, of all beauty treatments that they undertake, administering a pedicure is amongst the most satisfying, since the results of their work are immediately evident.
