What the appointment includes
This service pairs a gel manicure with a gel pedicure in a single session. Each hand and foot receives shaping and cuticle care; feet also receive a soak and smoothing treatment. Gel polish is applied on both fingers and toes and is cured to set the finish, producing the glossy, chip-resistant result described by many clients.
The combo is designed as a one-appointment solution: both manicure and pedicure are completed together so you leave with finished nails on hands and feet. The total session length is 105 MINUTES, which accommodates the separate steps without rushing the shaping, cuticle work, soaking, smoothing, application and curing that determine the final appearance.
How the result is shaped
Shaping and cuticle care are not just cosmetic steps; they create the foundation for an even application. Smooth, well-shaped nail edges and tidy cuticles let gel polish sit flat and adhere evenly, reducing lift. On toes, soaking and smoothing the skin help create a clean surface that supports a neat pedicure and longer-lasting wear.
Curing the gel defines the finish: once set, the polish delivers the glossy look and greater chip resistance clients seek before travel or busy schedules. Local lifestyle factors in Cambridge — frequent commuting, seasonal weather changes, and active routines near Harvard Square — influence how long polish appears freshly finished in daily use.
Time and scheduling considerations
Plan for a 105 MINUTES appointment so each step receives careful attention without rushing. Sasha Salon and Spa’s location near Harvard Square and the MBTA Red Line makes it straightforward to schedule this longer service around work, classes, or shopping in the area, letting you combine grooming with a commute or errands.
This single-session approach trades one longer appointment for fewer touch-ups later, which is why clients book the combo before travel or busy stretches. The listed price for this combined service is $135, reflecting the dual attention to fingers and toes in one contiguous visit rather than two separate bookings.
