Description
In today’s video, this client is back for her second pedicure visit after recent foot surgery, and she also lives with rheumatoid arthritis. Her feet have been through a lot: surgery recovery, inflammation, dry skin, foot pain, and changes that can make everyday walking uncomfortable.
At the beginning of the appointment, we talk about her surgery, her follow-up visits, her stitches being removed, and how carefully she has had to protect the skin while it healed. When someone has recently had foot surgery, the pedicure has to be gentle, thoughtful, and based on what the skin and nails can safely tolerate that day.
This visit has a beautiful transformation moment because her nails are in such good shape that I tell her she has graduated to a regular pedicure. That means her toenails no longer need the same level of corrective work they needed before.
We also talk about rheumatoid arthritis, foot pain, dry skin, nail polish, and why some clients become so used to hiding their toenails that they are surprised when they finally love the clean, natural look.
