How much (on average) does a manicure cost in Toronto?

Any suggestions? I'll be travelling there soon.How much (on average) does a manicure cost in Toronto?
It all depends where you go - you can pay anywhere from $8 - over $50 depending on how posh the place is.





Personally, there are two places I go to and they both charge $8 for a manicure and they do a good job - one is close to Bay/Wellesley and the other is at Victoria Park and Lawrence (East York).





There's tons of manicure places across the city, so you'll have a lot to choose from.How much (on average) does a manicure cost in Toronto?
Well, it varies depends on where you go.


In downtown Toronto, you can pay anywhere from 12-30.


-If you go to a well known spa, like for example elixr organic spa (http://www.elixirspa.ca/services.php) you will pay around 15 for a basic manicure- BASIC manicure.


-ANother place is http://www.10spot.ca/services.html and you can view that it ranges between 20-34.


-Any of the spas in the downtown location will be more expensive, however i have a TIP for you. Go to the nail spas owned by asian or oriental employees. They are usually the cheapest and they do the best work and are fast and reliable. You usually dont need to make an appointment and the manicures last a long time.


There are 2 places in particular that I recommend:


-One is in downtown toronto and is off bay and dundas. I cannot remember the name for the life of me, but they are on the north side of dundas on bay, right next to a convenience store. Its very cheap and they do a great job.


-The other is in midtown and near glencarin station. It is called Tammy's Spa. They are about 10 dollars and they do an incredible job. You can also get cheap waxing there- im talking cheap! And they do a GREAT job. 10 dollars for lip and eyebrows both. Glencarin station is about 15 minutes by subway from St.George Station and about 20 minutes from Union Station. You basically take the subway northbound on the yellow university line going to downsview and get off at glencarin. Make sure you get off at glencarin exit (not viewmount) and then walk toward marlee. Its about a 5 min walk and it is on marlee: here is the address: http://www.toronto.com/shopping/listing/鈥?/a>
