How the Classic Pedicure Works at The Face Place in Columbia

Detailed overview of the steps, timing, and what to expect from a Classic Pedicure in Columbia.

Treatment process and steps

The Classic Pedicure begins with an aromatherapy foot soak that has anti-bacterial properties to soften skin. Nails are trimmed and filed to your preferred shape, and a cuticle remover is applied to soften cuticles for safer removal of excess skin. We then use an exfoliating scrub on legs and feet to remove surface dead skin before hydration.

After exfoliation, a gentle massage of the lower legs and feet uses a warm shea butter cream to restore hydration. The finish includes your choice of Zoya polish, Toxin Free and Vegan friendly, for a clean color. If you have gel polish to be removed, removal is $15.00; please tell us in advance so we can allow more time.

What shapes the result

Nail shape and length decisions affect durability and daily comfort. Our technicians trim and file nails to your desired shape while considering how you live — commuters and parents often choose shorter, practical lengths to reduce snags. Choose a shape that balances aesthetic goals with the activities you do in Columbia, such as commuting or outdoor recreation.

Exfoliation and the warm shea butter cream address surface dryness and rough skin after regular activity. Columbia's climate transitions can leave feet drier at times; the scrub plus cream focus on smoothing and immediate hydration, though ongoing home care affects outcomes. Regular appointments maintain texture and softness more consistently.

Scheduling and preparation tips

A Classic Pedicure is scheduled for 45 MINUTES. Allow extra time if you require gel polish removal — removal costs $15.00 and should be communicated when booking. We recommend booking appointments in advance, especially for evenings or weekends when clients attend nearby events like concerts at Merriweather Post Pavilion.

Most clients in Oakland Mills and greater Columbia choose convenient, appointment-friendly times that fit commuting schedules. Our location has easy access from US 29 and local arterials, making quick after-work visits practical. The service price is $52; please arrive slightly early so we can start on time and complete your pedicure within the booked 45 MINUTES.

Bring open-toed shoes or sandals after your appointment so polish can dry without smudging. Tell us about any recent pedicures or gel polish when you check in; gel removal is $15.00 and can add time. Arrive a few minutes early to relax into the foot soak.

If you're attending an event in downtown Columbia or near Lake Kittamaqundi, mention timing so we can plan accordingly. Book online or call to reserve your Classic Pedicure and confirm any gel removal needs before arrival.
