Any guy should be able to walk in and get a pedicure.

Nail salons that I know of take anyone, be they male or female. They provide pedicures, not simple nail clipping. Nail clipping is part of the pedicure.

I've never seen a male or female only salon.

And, I rather enjoy my pedicure.

A nurse foot specialist goes there every week. You don't have to be a senior center member. She charges, but it's well worth it. Call the senior center(s) in your area to see if this service is available.

She comes to the house, and is good. Plus, I'm 220 and the woman could throw me out the window.

Sign up for a pedicure then pick a color. Can get clear coat or a variety of colors. I’m not always the only male customer and some of the nail techs are male too.

to go to my favorite salon for a pre-wedding pedicure. Truthfully, it was more for their ladies than it was for them.
Turns out I created a monster...they both go regularly now and enjoy the comforts.
