Quality VS Quantity Vol. 2: The Kimberly Spa Pedicure

Friday, May 14th, 2010

Kimberly Spa PedicureWarm water bubbling around your feet, a sweet aroma in the air, a leather massaging chair gently working out your kinks, soft surround sound music, and an hour to yourself just to relax.  This is what women WANT from their pedicure appointment.  Unfortunately, we have seen the American pedicure be industrialized down to a quick anything but relaxing half hour that leaves us with painted toes and not much else.
