The grossest thing to happen to your feet since Crocs
Posted by: Sarah Harman in Arts and Entertainment
If long treks on the subway in $2 flip-flops haven’t been kind to your feet, consider indulging in the latest beauty trend: the fish pedicure.
At Yvonne Hair and Nails salon in Alexandria, Va., customers can soak their feet in a bath of warm water and carp. The tiny, toothless fish feed on dead cells, eliminating unsightly rough patches. As customers relax, the carp chow down, leaving feet soft and smooth.
If the idea of willingly feeding your own flesh to fish creeps you out, there’s always pumice stone. Or you could just, you know, wear real shoes.
