Venus Signature Pedicure in Florence, KY

The 6 steps

1. Pearl soak. Warm water with pearl powder, long enough to soften the skin properly.
2. Hydrating cleanser. Cleans the skin without stripping it, so the rest of the treatment absorbs.
3. Brightening sugar scrub. Exfoliates dry, dull skin on the feet and lower legs.
4. Nourishing collagen mask. Applied and left to work while your feet rest.
5. Hot stone massage. Warm stones on the feet and calves. This is the step people remember, and the only pedicure on our menu that includes it.
6. Pearl anti-aging lotion. Finishes the skin soft and moisturized.

Your nails are trimmed, shaped and cuticles groomed along the way, then polished. Shellac gel is $20 extra if you want it to last four to six weeks.

How it differs from the shorter pedicures

Every pedicure on our menu covers nails, cuticles and a tidy finish. What you buy with the Signature at $65 over the Classic Pedicure at $40 is roughly twice the time, spent on the sugar scrub, the collagen mask and a hot stone massage that no other pedicure on the menu includes.

If you are on your feet all day, if you run, or if your heels crack in winter, that extra time is doing real work rather than being an indulgence. If you mainly want tidy toes before a weekend away, the Classic or Deluxe does that perfectly well and gets you out faster.

Who books it

Three groups, consistently. Nurses, teachers and warehouse staff at the end of a run of long shifts. People coming off a summer of sandals with heels that need actual attention rather than a tidy-up. And anyone treating themselves — birthdays, the week before a vacation, the day after a hard month.

It is also the pedicure people book in pairs. If you are coming with someone, say so when you call and we will put you side by side.

Practical things worth knowing

• Shave your legs the day before, not the morning of. Freshly shaved skin stings with a scrub. This is the single most useful thing on this page.
• Wear or bring loose pants and open shoes. Flip flops beat boots at the end of an hour.
• Regular polish needs drying time. If you are heading straight out, shellac gel at $20 is dry when you stand up.
• Tell us about anything going on with your feet. Diabetes, neuropathy, an ingrown nail or a healing cut all change what we do, and we would rather know at the start.

Keeping it between visits

Callus comes back. That is what skin does under pressure, and no pedicure stops it permanently. What extends the result is a urea-based foot cream at night — thicker than a body lotion — and not letting a pumice do daily work that a professional reduction did properly.

Most people are on a four to six week cycle for this one. If you are coming more often than that for callus specifically, we would rather talk about footwear than sell you more appointments.
