Ranging from high-end to hole-in-the-wall, Las Vegas is swarming with places to get manicures and pedicures, which is why it was a challenge to narrow down our list to just 14 go-to nail salons to feature. Here find top-notch manicures and pedicures for the summer season.
The Muscle and Joint pain relief soaks, scrubs, sprays, and creams used in this treatment will not only heal and rejuvenate hands and feet, but will also alleviate symptoms of pain, aid in the relief of inflammation and strengthen muscles and joints during this powerful manicure and pedicure. A perfect service for athletes, individuals with circulation issues and individuals who are often on their feet.
Try one of the Ice Cream Pedicures at Canyon Ranch. Bath Ice Cream fizzes and releases oils, minerals and fragrances into the water to soothe and revitalize feet. This is followed by an exfoliation using Shower Sherbet and an application of Body Icing. Choose your flavor for this special foot sundae.
The salon has an Essie Lounge. Bulletproof your nails with the Millionails to help resist peeling and splitting, allowing for a beautiful, long lasting mani.
Try the Vdara Snakeskin Pedicure, where naturally shed snakeskin is shaped to fit perfectly and aesthetically with guests’ toenails. An expert manicurist uses a special Bio Sculpture Gel to place the snakeskin on the nail and seal in the design for an enticing and polished look. Kids can get the Strawberries & Cream Children’s mani/pedi.
Aria’s Red Carpet Pedicure will lift away dead skin with an AHA - perfecting mask for exfoliation, which is massaged into the legs and feet with warm stones. To follow, a sugarcane scrub, exotic oil and body mist will be applied with polish to complete the treatment.
The Summer Retreat begins with a Guava Coconut Milk Bath Soak with a blend of exotic nut oils that rejuvenate, nourish and rehydrate dry skin leaving it supple smooth and revitalized. Fresh sugar cane crystals are then applied manually to exfoliate the skin while naturally occurring alpha hydroxyls gently buff away aging skin cells, leaving skin polished and clean. The deep moisturizing blend of oils nourish, moisturize and protect the skin leaving it glowingly healthy. Finally, a body butter massage gently soothes and revives dry skin.
The Spa Mio manicure and pedicure use Me! Bath for a soak, scrub and lotion in which the guest gets to choose their fragrance from a selection of three, including White Tea & Ginger, Apple Blossom & Kumquat and Balinese Papaya. Guests also have the selection of color from OPI, Whet and Essie nail polishes. Locals nab 25 percent off.
Look for original nail art designs. Send your man over to the center bar while you get a Worship My Manicure that begins with warm towel wrap and extra TLC.
