Where?
Odyssey Nails, Melbourne Central, Victoria, Australia
Why is this experience on the Challenge List?
Most people I know have had a manicure and pedicure, so I decided that I wanted to be pampered at least once. Everything is an experience so why not give this one a go.
Description:
I mentioned to a friend at university that I had never had a manicure or pedicure. So the following week she surprised me and book us both an appointment on our lunch break. After our class ended we rushed to our appointment on the trams and went to Odyssey Nails at Melbourne Central.
The entire appointment took about an hour, it was totally worth the time. They started with a foot spa and massage then painted my toe nails. After that was almost dry, I got a manicure where I provided my nail own nail polish. After the three coats were applied I was to sit under the drying area until it was dry. Somewhere between moving from the application table to the drying area, I knocked two nails and bumbed the polish off… It took a while to dry and once out they looked nice.
Would I do it again?
Of course, its nice to just relax whilst being pampered!
Highlight:
Being pampered for over an hour and having a fresh feel when you walk out of the building.
Cost:
The total cost that I paid was $75, which is about the average price for this treatment.
Further information:
Wear sandles!! It sounds funny but I made the mistake of wearing runners and then having to wait for my toe nails to completely dry beofre leaving.
Also if you want you can take your own nail polish with you, I did this as I use Kester Black it’s better for your nails and the planet and has some of the most beautiful colours.
