How often would you typically recommend that clients come in for pedicures?

Recommending clients to come in for pedicures every 4 weeks is based on the natural growth cycle of toenails and the importance of maintaining foot health. Toenails generally grow slower than fingernails, with an average growth rate of about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per month. Scheduling pedicures every 4 weeks allows enough time for growth to necessitate a trim, while also ensuring that any dead skin or calluses can be effectively managed.

In addition to the aesthetic aspect, regular pedicures help maintain proper foot hygiene, prevent ingrown toenails, and promote overall foot health. This timeframe strikes a good balance for most clients, ensuring they receive adequate care without overwhelming them with too frequent appointments that they may find unnecessary.

The other options suggest frequencies that are generally either too short for the growth rate of toenails or too long to maintain optimal foot health and appearance.
