Two years ago, I never had a pedicure. I simply never understood why people just didn't paint their own nails and save money.
Now I LOVE the entire experience of getting a pedicure. It's such a great thing to do with your friends, family and even boyfriend/fiancé/husband! Sometimes you just have to pamper yourself and your feet. See my reviews of some local nail salons.
Cindy Nails - Issaquah
I just love Cindy Nails. It is a small family run salon in Gilman Village. They are usually pretty full so I recommend calling and making an appointment so you don't have to wait. This salon does not have the high tech massage chairs or a luxury feeling to it, so if that is what you want Cindy's in not the place for you. If you want a great lasting pedicure, a lengthy leg massage and nice staff then I recommend Cindy's. They massage your legs for at least 10 minutes and it is really relaxing and wonderful. The pedicure is around $28 dollars with a 20% tip.
Happy Nails - Bellevue
This is a newer nail salon located in downtown Bellevue. This salon is really nice and welcoming. It has eight massage chairs, four manicure tables, a waxing room and nice bathroom. A girlfriend and I made an appointment here after work and loved our entire experience here. The staff spoke great english and were very friendly and accommodating to all their customers. They even brought me the right magazines to look at (apparently I scream US Weekly and In Touch). They give a 20% discount to all first time customers, so my pedicure totaled $25 with a 20% tip. I definitely recommend this place to all bargain hunters because this is really a great deal. Note: My pedicure lasted over a month!!
Trendz Nails - Kirkland
I found this salon because of a great Groupon discount, they were offering a pina colada manicure and pedicure for $30. Trendz is a brand new salon in Kirkland and has a wonderful location. It is a small boutique nail salon with four high-end massage chairs and two manciure tables. The pina colada manicure and pedicure was good but because I was using a Groupon, it felt like they were rushing through my manicure to stay on schedule. Also the manager was very open and honest that she was making any money with all the Groupon customers and was really pushy about telling you how much to tip. I personally would never go back here just because of that. The pedicures range from $30-$50.
Truce Spa - Bellevue Westin
I was treated to a spa date here and it was amazing. We started off with a pedicure; the staff was so friendly and cute. They offered us tea or water three times during the pedicure. The atmosphere was very tranquil and relaxing. This pedicure was not a bargain, but the experience trumped the price. :) Note: The couples massage was phenomenal!
Sunset Spa & Tanning - Bellevue
This nail salon is really nice. The lighting is dim, the atmosphere is relaxing and the staff is very friendly. I recommend calling ahead because they are always busy. They always ask if you want tea or water before they seat you in your nice and big massage chairs. The pedicure service is always phenomenal and lasts at least a month. The pedicures range from $30-$40 and the manicures range from $15-$25.
I also have to include the best foot massage deal on the Eastside, Beijing Herbal Foot Massage in Kirkland. If you really want to pamper yourself and especially your feet you have to go here. You can get a 60 minute foot massage for $25 dollars. But it is not only a foot massage, they rub your entire body...even your ears. :) The environment is a bit odd because you are in a room with at least eight other people and getting a full body massage in a reclining chair. I have to admit this was a great experience and I can't wait to go here again. Note: Bring cash to tip your masseuse.
