The average cost of a professional manicure is about $20, with special manicures like shellac and gel polishes raising the cost to about $50. Even at the lower end, if you get a manicure twice per month that’s going to near the $500 per year range! And sure, it might be worth it. But it also costs you time to go to the salon, not to mention that 15-20% tip each time. Luckily, you can get a similar spa experience right at home with the proper tools and products.
