What Is a Pedicure
A pedicure is a foot and toenail care treatment: a softening soak, removal of hardened skin and calluses, nail shaping, cuticle care and finishing hydration — with regular or gel polish if you wish. It's not just aesthetics: a regular pedicure prevents ingrown nails, cracked heels and thickened skin that becomes painful over time. The key difference from home care: in the salon it's done with sterilised tools and a technique that doesn't damage the natural nail.
How Long a Pedicure Takes and How Much It Costs in Sarajevo
| Option | Duration | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Classic pedicure | 45–60 min | 40 KM |
| Classic pedicure + gel polish | 60–75 min | 50 KM |

The duration includes preparation, skin and nail care, and polish application when it's part of the treatment. Exact, up-to-date prices are always available in the price list.
What's Included in a Classic Pedicure
The classic (wet) pedicure is focused on care and comfort:
- a softening soak and foot preparation
- treatment of calluses and rough heels
- nail shaping and cuticle care
- final foot moisturizing
Pedicure with Gel Polish
This option adds gel polish that stays flawless for 3–4 weeks without chipping — ideal for open-shoe season and for anyone who doesn't want to redo their polish often.

French Pedicure
The French option adds the classic white tip at the end of the nail as a finishing design — a neat, recognizable look. It's added on top of the gel polish option.

Classic Pedicure or Gel Polish — How to Decide
- You want just care and comfort, and you like to change your polish color yourself at home often → classic pedicure.
- You want neat nails for 3–4 weeks, worry-free, and you wear open shoes → gel polish.
- You want an extra finishing detail → add French.
How Long the Result Stays Neat
A classic pedicure keeps your feet looking well-groomed, while regular polish lasts a shorter time. Gel polish on toenails stays neat for 3–4 weeks. For the best result, we recommend regular foot moisturizing and shoes that don't press on the nails.
Removing Gel Polish
We always remove gel polish professionally in the salon so the nail plate isn't damaged. Scraping or picking off the polish yourself at home can damage the natural nail.
How Often to Get a Pedicure
For neat, healthy feet, we recommend a pedicure every 3–4 weeks, in line with how long the gel polish lasts if you use it. Without polish, the interval can be longer — based on your personal needs.
