Yesterday I introduced Caroline to one of the best parts of being a girl.
The pedicure.
Of course I’ve never had a pedicure complete with my own personal DVD player and a wide array of DVD’s to choose from.
I’ve also never had flowers painted on my big toes.
Frankly, I feel a little ripped off.
She is absolutely PRECIOUS! Congrats on your first pedicure, cutie! I can hardly wait to take my DD for hers! Until then, Daddy paints her toes
How fun they have a little set up for kids! She is adorable and I love the flowers on her toes:).
I can’t let my 3 year old see your pictures today or she’s going to feel ripped off too…she has to settle for sub par pedicures a la Daddy. I’ve never seen a kid’s chair like that–pretty cool!
How fun is that!?!?
And here I thought I was all “mother of the year” with our home spa nights. I could never top this!
Check out the teddy bear chair…
that is definitely a milestone in a young girls life
)
my question is:
what kind of salon has a ‘kid chair’ & dvd player?
i’ve never seen anything like it!!!
i do admit — i’ve had flowers on my toes before — ONLY ONCE;
and i was so ‘CHAWED’ (special shout out to kelly’s korner) – ha ha ha!!
How fun! I confess I got my first flowers on my big toes this year at almost 30. I felt like a kid!
That kid’s spa chair is the coolest thing! Heck, I’m 26 (I just typed 24, omg what is happening to me)…and I never saw anything like that back in my day! Now I feel ripped off. I might like one of those *NOW*
For real! What a set-up!
you know that you’ve started a habit with her now, right? we’ll y’all be going weekly or biweekly?
my mom just got her first pedi last month! can you imagine? she’ll be 60 next week!
*will* y’all not *we’ll* y’all. i guess i wanted to include myself in your future pedicure ventures!
*will* y’all not *we’ll* y’all. i guess i wanted to include myself in your future pedicure ventures!
Oh. My. Word. Where do I go to get a set-up like that!?!??
But you get to sit in the colorful bear chair right?
ok, that chair is just freaky. There’s two at the nail salon I go to. I prefer to stick with my chairs that have the back rubbers, thank you. But seeing that makes me want a pedicure now!
Good job at getting that habit started now
I was 25 when I got my first pedi. You are a rockin mom.
And yeah, the flowers? way cool.
Oh my word, how fun, and I would totally be feeling ripped off too, haha!!!!!
SO fun!! I’ve never seen a set up like that for kids!
I can’t wait to do that with Harper one day!
Too cute! Where on earth is a Salon with a kid-friendly pedicure station? My daughter would LOVE that!

Yikes…the bear chair is a little creepy, no? However, I’m sure she had so much fun! Cute!
Little miss is livin’ large, now, isn’t she? My daughter loves the pedicure hot seat. She even squealed when her Grammy mentioned they might get one this weekend. And I think she might have mentioned Justice in the same text. It’s fantastic being a girl!!!
I am so jealous I didn’t have that growing up! You are a great mom!
I’m 42, and I’ve never had a pedicure!
Gosh…and to think of all those years I hired a babysitter so I could go and have a pedicure and read my People in peace. If only Houston had had a bear chair!!
Genius marketing – this salon knows where it’s at.
I get flowers all the time. LOL
Love the bear chair and DVD player. I’ll need to talk to my spa about adding those to my pedicure experience. LOL
Well, I thought we were way behind the times here in small town MO, but after reading all the comments on the kiddie chair, I realize we’re way ahead of some. My Mom, who’s past 60 yo, just got her first pedi right before Mother’s Day. My sister, daughter, and myself went with her, and our salon had 3 of those chairs! My DD is 13 and didn’t get to use one, but she did get beautiful flowers on her toes! And, yes, I believe you’ve probably created a pedi monster!
Um, is that a pedicure chair designed especially for kids!?
I’ve never actually seen a chair like that.
Girls her age have it so good nowadays! Hmph.
Pedicures are one of the best parts of being a girl. I count down the days until my monthly pedicure!
You are one fun mama!
Check out that chair! I have never seen anything like that! I love mother/daughter pedi trips. My mom and I still go eveyr Christmas and get snowflakes on our red toes!
But do they have a tree stand and Cabella’s for P?? ;>)
That is totally cool. I’ve never seen a kids chair in a salon. I wanted to take Baby Girl to get her toes done, but I’m scared she won’t be able to sit still for it.
ok–I HAVE to know where that is. Is it a chain? Or, some specialty pedicure spot only Texans can enjoy?
Oh that chair is creepy but the flowers are Sa-weeeet! It’s never too early to learn about good foot care.
Now, my girls ask for pedicures. The nerve.
There were no pedicures when I was a child, just clippers. And I was OK with that. Well, there was polish. Heck, I’m not that old.
Oh the flowers on the big toes is fun! I do that many times! And snowmen in winter. If I go to get a pedi, I go all out!
Who thought about inventing the “bear chair” for girls? Very cute – and smart! – idea!! A girls got to have a pedi, no matter how young or old
I’m stunned you’ve never gotten flowers on your toes. What’s the point of a pedicure if not flowers with a faux jewel in the center?
My daughter was three when she got her first pedicure. (In my defense, it was for my sister’s wedding, and it was the the bride’s idea, and we all know you don’t cross a bridge on her wedding week.)
As usual in California, the nail shop was staffed almost entirely by sweet Vietnamese women. They were delighted to do Natalie’s toes, and they kept trying to ask her questions (with thick accents) to keep her engaged. And bless her little Dora-infected heart if she didn’t speak Spanish back to them. “Hola!” “Lo hicimos.”
wow! a pedicure experience obviously aimed at young girls…
my 13 year old already asks for pedis regularly…she doesn’t get them much, but she asks…
We are a little behind times here…I’ve never seen one of those chairs!! Amazing!!
How fun was that!
so fun! my daughters (4 yr and 2yr) love them too. do you have a sweet and sassy there? she would really like that and they cute hair too though it might put you over the edge. go visit one and you’ll see why.
Yikes. My daughter would absolutely poo purple monkeys of excitement to get to have a pedicure. It’s a neat idea. Don’t like the chair, but I bet I could still find someone to paint my wee girl’s nails!
Seriously, what was up with parents in the 80′s? I agree we may have gotten a bit ripped off
Flowers on her toes! Life doesn’t get much better than that!
I have never seen a pedicure chair like that. How cute!!!
That is an absolutely adorable picture, but I’m surprised that a germ-phobe such as yourself does the pedi thing. Most places don’t empty out the water basin all the way.
I’m 63 and had flowers on my toes for a trip to the beach. I love a pedicure. One way to spoil myself.
Okay that is soo sweet of you.. and ahem why when I use to get them didn’t I ever get the video and cute wee flowers….
But the chair? Have you been allowed to sit in that chair??
I think it’s precious..but at the risk of being booed off the site may I suggest something.
It’s quite likely that little princess will always remember a parent or grandparent doing her nails more so than the spa pedicure w all the trimmings.
I had a “manicure” the first time when I was 60ish and in the last 3 years have had a spa pedicure maybe 3 times.OOOOOOOO it is such a delicious decadent treat..too bad it just costs too much for this gramma to do regularly :^(
I just met up with five other ladies early yesterday morning for a group pedicure. We had so much fun.
2 yrs ago, I took my daughter for her first pedicure as her 5th b-day gift. She absolutely loved the whole process, especially the massage chair. She laughed the whole time the chair was massaging
After 2 boys, it is so much fun sharing the girly stuff. But, we only get them about once a year.
I have to know where you took her. I just go to a salon on Bulverde Rd, and K has to slide down in the chair for her feet to reach. Although if the chair doesn’t massage, she might not like it
Ok, I’m officially jealous I don’t have a girl. Looks like y’all had fun. So cute.
I did my own nails for my wedding day…now 18 years later, my 4th child, who is 5 has been getting real pedicures with her mama and big sis, since she was at least three! Her sister didn’t have one until elementary school. But, we B-Bunch girls love a little night out, especially before vacation. It’s more fun to be together, than to wait for a wedding. Ha!

You know, I was thinking of going in for my first ever pedicure, but that pink head on the chair is scaring me.
LOVE IT!!! I am getting ready to introduce it to Emma as well. Fun times!
her toes are so cute. i took my 14 year old niece who was out visiting from las vegas and we had a blast at the salon getting nails and toes. i go every other week and this was her first visit–she loved it. so fun. so girly.

That is the cutest! I had my hubby install a new Pedicure Massage Chair this past spring. I think I know what the next step will be.Either that of a new Vichy Massage Table.
I love that chair! It’s so cute. What’s the name of the place you took her to to get her nails done?
