Getting your manicures and pedicures in Seoul will be almost as expensive if not more than in North America. I have been satisfied with Tiffany Nail in Itaewon (Exit 2 across the street from the Dunkin Donuts). I’ve had manicures ranging from about 15 000-35 000 won and pedicure prices start at about 30 000 won.

The services I’ve had at Tiffany Nail were relatively thorough; I had a lot of choices for polish colour, and during one pedicure, my feet were simultaneously worked on by 2 ladies! It was a bit of a novelty, but I ended up feeling like I was getting rushed out a bit. They are not the best manicures/pedicures  in the world, but they do cater to a lot of foreigners. They speak some English, and they have pretty good hours (Mon-Sun 11am-10pm)

They also have a stand up tanning bed for about 12 000 per 10-15 minute session and they have package deals, but don’t expect strong bulbs like back home. They provide tanning lotion for free.

I’ve also tried The Green Turtle in Itaewon (Exit 3, right above ‘The Coffee Bean’). The prices were comparable, but I preferred Tiffany Nail.
