The nail salon I use charges $15 for a natural manicure if I remember correctly. Aside from caring for your nail and cuticle work you also get a softening lotion massaged into your hands. I don't get that massage part when I get acrylics. I like that part. But, I like my acrylic nails too. LOL
Ramius like my nails too. They scratch backs well! LOL
Call around. Find out what the going rate is. When I moved up here from Waco I called. Prices vary greatly! Now, I pay a little more than the lowest price for my nails (not much more) because the lady that does it does such a fabulous job. If you go one place and don't like what they do then go to another one for the next Mother's Day or birthday. I tried 3 places before I found one I'm sticking with.
So, how was the party?
