And following such a…read moreperiod where I'd been partaking in this disgusting habit I figured it was as good a reason as any to "Treat Yo Self!" to a manicure to get my nail beds back into shape and on the way to recovery. Scratchers, so conveniently located around the corner from my Tuesday morning meeting, could fit me in for an express mani. Perfect! The space is compact but they're easily able to seat four at the nail tables and a few more in the back for pedicures and waxing. As you walk in you can sense that many of the clients are regulars -- a good sign as a first time client! I was in and out in under 30mins and despite the state of my nails, Prue was warm and welcoming. She worked her magic and gave me some top tips on keeping my hands looking their best in between appointments. They offer a range of nail services, waxing (for the gents too) and I shall be back for a shellac manicure in the near future.

I chose the colour 'mermaid green', the colour selection available is limited compared to other places I have been, however there is still some variety. You do receive a bottle of water and they have recently started using their own brand of nail file and you get to take yours home. If you are feeling fancy you can also have a drink while you have your nails done. I would recommended booking in advance. It was a little more expensive than I normally pay but I would be back. Take along a girlfriend and get your nails done over some champagne!

Brooklyn is definitely not the cheapest place in town, but their facilities are simple and clean, and has the interiors of a Brooklyn loft. The place also wasn't overwhelmingly musty with the smell of incense or air freshener, which was a huge plus for this allergy-prone customer. The girls there are super friendly, quick at their job, and have the cutest outfits complete with a bow tie. Love it!

Let's just say I found my new go-to spot for a mani-pedi session:) Sensational Nails is quick, convenient and affordable. I called before I left the house and was able to walk right in and less than an hour later I was out with shiny nails and darker lashes:) The technician was very sweet and chatted with me throughout the hour. You can usually find parking on the streets nearby. And the Paddo is just across the street if you need to keep your partner occupied while you get colored and waxed. I would highly recommend this salon to others. Enjoy!

Hence when a friend suggested we get pedicures a wave of fear washed over me. Pedicures? I've successfully avoided one for so long why would I start having them now? People touching our feet? And everyone being able to see us? Luckily said friend wasn't suggest mall pedicures, she was taking it up a level and suggested Pho Thai Spa which is conveniently located on Brunswick Street (past the New Farm Cinema and next to Death Before Decaf). Yes, you'll pay a little more but can opt for a quick 30 minute pedi or the hour long (like we did) which includes a neck and head massage, and for the added luxuries - it's worth it. When you arrive you enter a serene space where mobile phone use is discouraged and you remove your shoes before being taken through to the treatment room. You'll be served a cup of warm tea. There's 6 cane lounges meaning there's no mass pedicure turn style happening here. The setting is more day spa than harshly lit salon. You're shown to your lounge and invited to soak your feet before a scrub is applied and wiped off. Then, with your eye mask on, you're transported to a moment of relaxation as the therapists combine gentle massage, pressure point massage and an actual pedicure. While your nails are drying (if you've opted for a nail varnish), your neck and head are gently massaged. Thankfully, we weren't rushed to leave our lounges post-treatment and were given ample time to warm back up to the idea of re-entering the real world. They also do Thai massage and facials so you could easily spend a day-spa day here and leave the worries of the world at the door! And, for the first time in my life, I get the benefits of a pedicure. Says I as I admire how shiny and smooth my feet look.

A friend recommended me to Pho Thai Spa on Brunswick Street in New Farm. I immediately booked myself in for the 45 minute pedicure package. Upon entering Pho Thai Spa, the first thing I noticed was the beautiful Thai decor. Long lounge chairs, dim lighting and green tea being brewed for my arrival. I knew immediately I was going to like it here. The lady who took care of me got me settled and soaked my feet in warm coconut water. Before preparing my feet for the pedicure side of things, she gave me the most amazing foot massage I have ever had, to the point where I had to concentrate to stay awake. It was exactly what the doctor ordered! After the massage she brought out a selection of OPI nail polish to choose from for my toenail colour. I was a bit sad once it was all over, but it felt like I was there for much longer than 45 minutes. My deluxe pedicure came to $65, and was worth every scent. It was such a fantastic pampering session and I'd happily recommend it to all of my friends. Another great thing is that as a new customer I was given a $20 voucher to use for my next visit...as if I needed more excuses ti come back! Plus I discovered that they do packages where a group of friends can book the spa for a few hours for $105 a person and receive massages and facials whilst drinking champagne. Sounds like heaven on Earth!
