How long do pedicures last?

I can usually last a good 4 weeks with a decent pedicure....so long as I don't go round stubbing my toes and the like.

In my experience pedicures usually last a good time longer than manicures. I'd say you'll be fine to go and have your feet pampered on the wednesday. I expect it'll still look pretty good by the time you get back from your hols.

One tip I've learnt that does seem to help is to get your nail varnish painted late on the afternoon then go home and wander around in bare feet or flip flops for the rest of the day. It seems to give the varnish a decent chance of drying and hardening properly which appears to help it last a bit longer still.

4 weeks? Ace! Thanks. Pretty toes here I come. Or at least slightly less manky ones ?

There's a place a 5 min wak from my house so I can shuffle back there easily.

I used to spend a fortune on a mani / pedi before holiday then as soon as I'd get in the pool I'd stub my toe and chip the varnish.?

Now I just treat my feet in the weeks leading to holiday with a good foot scrub, heavy moisturising cream and then paint toes myself. That way if I chip I have the same varnish to repaint.

I never see the point of a manicure as whenever I have one it chips within a day or two.

I do however regularly have a french pedicure and it can last anything from 4-6 weeks.

A good few weeks.I bloody love a good pedicure. There is something very uplifting about having pretty feet.

You can just take your own nail polish with you for the manicure/pedicure and then you have it with you if you need to touch it up during the holiday.

I had a pedicure on my hol on Tuesday or Wednesday of last week (it was my holiday, I wasn't counting days!) and it's still looking like new today, having spent a lot of time on the beach with sand between my toes. You should be fine, you'll be looking after it more than I did!

I find that pedicures typically last longer than manicures. So you should be fine getting your feet pampered on Wednesday, but if their nails haven't been done for too long, they may look old-fashioned by Thursday morning (especially with all the sandals!). The tip I've learned is to use Toe Nail Separators and get the nail varnish painted late in the afternoon; this gives it enough time to dry, so it's hard enough by the time we get home from work or if we have plans later.
