A manicure is a cosmetic treatment for hands, fingers and fingernails. A pedicure is a cosmetic treatment for feet, toes and toenails. Manicurists and pedicurists often file, clip and shape fingernails and toenails. They also often manipulate the cuticles of the nails. Manicures and pedicures often involve soaking the hands and feet in lotion or other substance to soften the skin. Paraffin wax is sometimes used in manicures and pedicures to remove dead skin. In many places manicurists and pedicurists must be licensed by the state to practice their trade. Manicure and pedicure services are often offered by beauty salons and by spas. Often manicurists will attach artificial nail tips to the fingernails. Nail polish is often applied on the nails during manicures and pedicures.
