I do do my own but a very poor job. I need to get a real pedi stat!
I emailed you my email addy. Thank you again!
I do my own periodically but it's no fun at all. My feet are simply ridiculous at this point. The PedEgg does work but there's nothing like sitting in that crazy vibrating chair while soaking your dogs in hot sudsy water. Recession be damned. I'm making an appointment!
I swear by Bliss Spa products (all of em) and Bath & Body Works "Toe the Line" pedicure products. Oh, they are phenomenal!!! Also, a pedicure trick I have is to put on too much lotion or cream on my feet in my socks (like an asinine amount) before I go to the gym.
My feet are silky smooth and ready for polish after that.
@T - Thanks for that tip!! I'm going to try that - I guess I'm going to have to actually go to the gym to do it! LOL
I wish I had nails to have a manicure, but alas all I can get is a pedicure.

I am impossible at doing my own pedicure and manicure so I have it all done at the spa, but I enjoyed reading this story;-)
I have always done my own nails - hands and feet. I do a much better job than any professional mani/pedi I've ever had - people ask me where I get my nails done and are surprised when I say I do them myself.
$20 worth of supplies and I'm good for a year - or two!
The only time I got regular pedis was when I was pregnant and couldn't get to my feet :)
I've done my own manicures, but I lack patience.... I'm much better at doing my own pedi and going to get a mani!
I really like Tweezerman's set. They're great because they repair for free.
i go to the salon mon-wed when its only $20!
Just gave myself a mani this weekend and it was so relaxing. I haven't painted my nails in about 2 years. Now I am hooked.
