I always have my nails done by Sonia who works the part of the beach around brittos, oceanic shack in baga, she is really friendly and I pay 250 - 300 rps for my toenails in pretty colours with diamante beads etc, she does a really nice french manicure also, shirleyv xx

Hiya

Yeah I got mine done in January by Sonia, I was at Oceanic shack at the time. If I remember correctly my sister and I got hands and toes done and it cost us 350rps each with diamantes. Well worth the money!

Thanks for your replies, we use Squeeze shack which I think is close to Oceanic I was definitely ripped off last year I'm sure I paid about 600rps :oops: just for my hands (must have seen me coming), I shall be looking for Sonia a week on Friday.

Thank you

I've just asked Mrs Max13biker - she goes to "Simply Beautiful."

A pedicure and nails painted is 300 Rs. they have a parlour in Calangute near Nizmar and a new one in Candolim down past the Stonehouse.

Be aware, when you use the girls on the beach - it's 100Rs for the shack owner, 100Rs for the police and 100Rs. for the girl. :shock:

Your choice!

I agree, Simply Beautiful is great. Full Pedicure inc toes painted takes about 70mins and so good that you feel like you have had new feet fitted. French Manicure done by Alicia is also great, the salon is clean air conditioned and very friendly. Prices are listed on a tariff card so you won't be ripped off.

I went to Sunita at Cut of Styles on border of Candolim and Calangute - was recommended by Helen and Alan [thanks] and her mobile no. Was 100 rps for manicure and 100 rps for real pedicure, threading was 25 rps.

Stick with a beautician in a salon. Had mine done on the beach last year and they were a terrible mess. The polish was all tacky and lumpy. Yes I got ripped off, I paid upfront.

I, too had my nails done by Nisha. A lovely girl. Can't remember what I paid, but had them done in the morning, they looked lovely with diamante things on - but it was all off by night time!! It just peeled off.

The girls in the Nizmar Hotel are excellent, my toenails with diamante stayed on for weeks after returning home.

We had manicure and pedicure done by Marta at Queen Beach Shack, Calangute. She has a salon at the back of the shack and is a fuly trained beautician. Nail polish stayed on our toes for weeks after coming home so did the diamantes. i think we paid 250 rps last year but will be going again this time. She also does fantastic facials. She has a price list with photographs in it so you know what you are going to pay. Also does massages. You can have a fantastic self indulgent day on the beach for next to nothing.
