You’ll Never Guess How Much Manicures Cost Around the World — There’s Even a $3 Mani

Give us a lofty paycheck and we can easily make it disappear with a beauty appointment or two (or seven). Bring on the lash extensions, that long-awaited hair color appointment or something as simple (yet equally enjoyable) as a manicure. Treat yourself to that special hydrating, relaxing treatment or nail art if you’re feelin’ fancy, and add in a pedicure for the ultimate spa experience. Undoubtedly, no matter where you live in the world, a mani is a treat that’s hard to say no to.

If you’re anything like us, you’ve googled “average price of a manicure” at least once in your lifetime. But as we’ve widened our horizons in terms of manicures all over the world, we’ve found that there really is no such thing as “average.” Depending on where you live, your manicure’s going to run you a different cost.
