A manicure and pedicure makes a woman look polished and stylish. Whether you do it yourself, get it done at a professional nail salon or have a friend do it for you, manicures and pedicures are fun. Take a little time for yourself to let loose and pamper yourself—or let someone else pamper you with perfectly polished fingers and toes.
