Men Manicures Pedicures The New Trend

     The picture above is a photo of my hubby and myself.  I started with this photo so eveyone can see my hubby is a muscled up man, that's tall, tattooed up, pierced up, and a complete manly man.  My hubby likes getting pedicures.  Long before I ever even considered being a nail technician and thought about going to beauty schoool, my hubby would go get his pedicure with me.
     When asked why he likes it so much this is what he said, "It's helps soothe my aching feet after a long days work.  I like getting pampered as much as anyone else.  I love the attention that is given, it's totally me all the time while I am getting the pedicure.  It also has some medicinal purposes, I have horrible feet issues."
     So since I have become a nail technician, I have become more sensitive to his needs.   I have only done 3 pedicures in the past 6 months on him.  When asked how he liked having a nail tech in the family he responded, "It has its benefits as far as her knowledge in podiatry, and my abused feet (a working man's feet).  She can give me the same attention, only it's a little better because I love her and know she has my best interest at heart."
    Not all men would be open to having a pedicure.  My dad has never and never will step foot in a nail salon.  In my list of services there is a men's manicure and a men's pedicure.  I use men's scented lotions and other items.  I rub a little longer, most men rub women's feet at night (my hubby does) and don't get theirs rubbed.  Also a man is a lot harder on his feet than most women.  I take all of that into consideration when planning on what to do to my male client.
    Male clients are a given on rebooking.  More and more men are becoming metro.  Being metro isn't a bad thing either, I find metro to be sexy.  I need a man who takes as good care of himself as I do myself (that's some big shoes to fill lol).  Double the pleasure double the fun get male and female clients in for more cash flow!
