MANICURES + PEDICURES: WHAT EVERY GUY SHOULD KNOW

 

Your hands and feet do a lot for you. They carry your weight, close deals, grip dumbbells, and shake hands. So why not take care of them? At Dr. Krista Archer’s Upper East Side office in Manhattan, we offer professional nail care services for men—not in a spa, but in a clinical, hygienic setting, delivered by a skilled technician who understands both form and function.

 

Whether you're chasing career goals or just want to feel a little more put-together, here’s why it’s time to make manicures and pedicures part of your routine.

 

WHY MEN ARE FINALLY SAYING YES TO NAIL CARE

 

It’s About Health, Not Polish
This isn’t about scented lotions and nail art (though no judgment if that’s your thing). It’s about cuticle care, proper nail trimming, callus removal, and infection prevention. Regular nail maintenance helps avoid painful issues like ingrown toenails, athlete’s foot, and nail fungus—things no one wants to deal with, regardless of gender.

 

MANICURED HANDS MEAN ATTENTION TO DETAIL
In business, details matter. A clean, well-groomed handshake can say: I pay attention. I take pride in my appearance. I respect the details. That first impression at a meeting or pitch? It starts before you even speak. Groomed nails and smooth hands signal that you’re meticulous, thoughtful, and confident—qualities that translate across industries.

 

WHY YOU SHOULDN’T BE EMBARRASSED TO BOOK A PEDICURE

 

Feet Shouldn’t Be An Afterthought
You hit the gym, wear great shoes, invest in skincare… but your feet? Often forgotten. A professional pedicure isn’t just about appearance—it’s about foot health, circulation, and comfort. Done in a sterile, medical-grade setting, it’s the kind of self-care that pays off every day.

 

You’re Not The Only Guy Doing It
The stigma around men’s grooming is fading fast. At our Upper East Side office, male clients of all ages—from professionals to athletes—are regularly booking appointments. You’re not alone, and you’ll be surprised how quickly this becomes something you actually look forward to.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • Services performed by a trained nail care technician in a clean, clinical environment
