What Your Pedicure Says About You
2025 Personality Edition
Because your personality deserves a matching toe chart.
Let’s be honest - there are two types of people in the world. Those who ask their nail tech for “whatever’s trending on TikTok”… and those who walk in, Pinterest board in hand, ready to let their personality shine through their pedi.
In 2025, self-care isn’t just about bath bombs and playlists - it’s about making bold, personal statements with your toes. Whether you’re the life of the party or the calm in the storm, your pedicure style says more about you than you think.
At Spa Durban, we’re bringing personality-forward pedis into focus. With seasonal packages, trending finishes like holographic, matte, and glassy, and toe art tailored to your vibe, we’re here to make sure your polish speaks your truth.
Let’s dive feet-first into the 2025 Pedicure Personality Guide. Warning: You may find out you’ve been toe-ing the wrong line all year.
