How much to cut toenails?

I go to a local beauty salon & get a pedicure. Costs me £24 for foot soak, file, various scrubs and creams, toe nails cut and cuticles trimmed and nail varnish. Great value.

Anywhere between £30 to £40 is the going rate in Bristol.

I go to a podiatrist who cuts my toenails, trims the cuticles, rubs cream in. He would treat corns, hard skin etc but I don’t have those! I now pay £27, and see him every 5 weeks or so.

I paid £33 and was in and out in less than 20 minutes. I decided to carry on myself as I can reach my toes fine and have a good professional nail clipper. I do it, when needed, after my shower when my nails are a bit softer, A bit of oil afterwards and I have saved £33, certainly saved enough so far to pay for for my new fabric stash

I agree re podiatrist v standard nail care, I saw a podiatrist once, no comparison, that man knew what he was doing, tested foot pulse etc Nail care is just nails, hard skin and oil

I've never heard of that - ie "test foot pulse". How do they do that and what is the purpose of it please?

If you are diabetic you get a foot pulse check to make sure the circulation in your feet it good.

I have a pedicure every four to five weeks and costs £40 for nail cutting and application of gel polish. All hard skin removed. Worth every penny. I fnd it difficult to cut my nails now so a real treat

You can feel the pulse on the instep of the foot. You can take it with your fingers as you would a radial pulse. It can be a bit tricky to feel though. I guess he does it to check blood flow to the feet.
