Please Remove Your Paws

Honeydew Mani/Pedi

You may have chewed-down nails, chipped polish, and dishpan hands.

But they’re nothing compared to your feet. (The mere sight of which has been known to frighten small children.)

It’s time you walked those tired dogs to Honeydew. You’ll not be manhandled by a time-starved maniac who’ll furiously file your digits. Nor will you be ushered about by some black-clad, personality-free droid. Instead, you’ll be in a delightfully low-key, comfortable space where the owner works on one client at a time.

Having issues with your callused toes? You’ll get the most thorough foot massage with a heated stone, treatment with a sloughing cream, and both sugar and mango scrubs. Hands and wrists in pain from hours of e-mailing? Not after this. Upper extremities will be vigorously massaged in the course of a top-notch manicure.

It’s the nicest way yet to treat your hard-working self to some much-needed R & R.

And ensure that no one will recoil from your outstretched hand again.

Available at Honeydew, 2116 Walnut Street (215-963-0499).
