Manicure & Pedicure in Rio

To get manicure or pedicure in Rio de Janeiro is not a problem. There are places literarily everywhere. They are normally located in hair dressers or in separate more specialized clinics.

For Everyone
I remember one time back when I just had arrived here the first time. There was this really big muscly macho guy that to my amazement was using clear nailpolish. Asking around I realized itīs quite common that men use that. I never did myself but I did try manicure and pedicure and it feels great. Itīs really cheap and those hideous feet that had been tucked into heavy swedish winter shoes for some years became a lot more presentable. I can recommend it. And for you girls that have been applying and removing yourself for years, itīs pretty nice to let someone else do it for you. Prices are really reasonable.

Where?
This is the deal: You can pretty much go anywhere. There are more expensive places but if you donīt have medical problem there is no reason. The more expensive ones are more concerned about higiene. They do a really good job almost everywhere. In Zona Sul the prices are about 10-15R$ for manicure and 20-30R$ for manicure and pedicure (in smaller towns around Brazil prices are about half of that). Most beauty parlours are closed both Sundays and Mondays.
