Default Pedicures for men

Any recommendations for places that cater to real dudes who want to take care of their toes without looking like a wuss?

I'll take your answers off the air.

It's way more common that you would think these days- I'd them on and off for 15 years or so and it's usually great. Take a buddy, coffee and baileys (or a gummy) talk sports or whatever and let them do their thing.

Honestly a great way to spend an hour!

My doctor prescribed a pedicure for my calluses. I went to the local spa and the attendant was a little horrified - she didn’t have industrial power tools. I sat beside two recent mothers who discussed lactation the whole time, when they weren’t one-upping each other about their fabulous lives.

Luckily the place serves wine so I had a large one.

I’ll also take a recommendation.

Anywhere that opens early is good. Don't get a pedi after 10am. Anything before that will reduce the number of lactation discussing mothers by at least 92%.

Women with engorged breasts? I'm in.

My grandpa used a bastard file, my dad uses a bastard file, my brother uses a bastard file, and I'll be damned if I'm not going to use one too!

Ask you wife. She’ll send you to the right place. Our gal has industrial-size tools.

I love pedicures. Just make sure that you go to a place that serves free beer and wine.

I don't get why you'd need a place for men. I've had one before and just went to a lady who does pedicures.

You're absolutely not. The fact you want to do something and won't do it because of what others think is the most weak ass ####

I thought it was obvious I was joking. I don't care who does it.

Is that something that can be transmitted during a pedicure?
