    It is good to have the calluses knocked off every now and then. I think everyone should get them trimmed up periodically. Nothing quite as nice as having comfortable feet. I have no idea why anyone would choose to have thick, dry, cracked and smelly calluses on their feet. I think it is just proper health care and proper grooming to get those taken care of every once in a while. I think many people have the misconception that it is about getting your toe nails prettied up. The reality is it can make a world of difference to have your calluses reduced so a day on your feet causes no discomfort.

    I'm with Rezdog on this - nothing unmanly about it at all. I had it done on holiday once and really enjoyed it - it does make a tremendous differences to how your feet feel - and as for having your nails trimmed properly, that's worth the money by itself.
    My service is good, fast and cheap. Select any two and discount the third.

    I spend all day standing on my job. taking care of my feet has been becoming more and more important to me. I generally wear out a pair of shoes in 3-4 months and have to toss them and buy new. The supports in them don't last when you are using them 8-16 hours day 6 days a week. Plus the goo factor that they exposed to in the operating room.

    When your feet hurt it makes for a very looooong day.

    You know when you guys put it that way .....unmanly be damned ! I got fallen arches,bunions,callouses,and I am a wide foot to boot (pun) My feet are always in discomfort and arch supports are expensive.......so yeah a pedicure is fine. Your feets is important and just like your teeth if ya got happy feet yer happy all over......mostly.
