The sun is shining and open-toe shoes and pretty sandals are calling, my friends.
The thing is, are your toes ready?
Ours were definitively in need of a little TLC having spent the winter crammed into Uggs and ankle boots, but hey, nothing a little help from the pros can’t fix, right?
If your toes could do with a little attention too, here are five of our absolute favourite places to get a file, polish and pedicure in Dublin at the moment:
1. OSLO
This gorgeous and very Scandi-inspired salon in Ballsbridge (new salon opening in Ranelagh soon!) is our latest beauty find in the city.
What to get? We are loving the Oslo Signature pedicure. The blissful 70-minute long treatment includes a warming soak, rich exfoliation, luxurious massage, nourishing mask, heated booties, detailed cuticle work with an Essie or Kure Bazaar colour of choice.

2. Fifth Avenue
Located only a two-minute stroll from the hustle and bustle of Grafton Street, Fifth Avenue is a bit of an institution when it comes to nails in the capital.
And if you really want to treat your feet to a tingling experience, opt for the Mojito Mint Pedicure. The talented nail technicians will get to work on your calluses before applying a gorgeous mojito-scented lotion to re-hydrate dry winter feet, and top it all off with a lovely polish before they send you on your merry way again.

3. MINK Hand and Foot Spa
MINK has long been our go-to place for all things nails in Dublin, and trust me, their White Chocolate & Berry Pedicure is the stuff dreams are made of.
The 75-minute long organic treatment will see your feet exfoliated with anti-oxidant rich white chocolate and pure organic Argan oil. Following this, your feet are dipped into a hot white chocolate paraffin wax, followed by a luxurious foot and leg massage.
Oh, and did we mention that fresh strawberries dipped in chocolate are served on the side for the ultimate treat…?

4. Tropical Popical
For the hands-down funkiest pedicure in town, book yourself into Tropical Popical on Dublin South William Street.
Oh, and for gorgeous nails that will last pretty much all summer, get the Midi Gelish Pedi. Your toes will thank you.

5. Dylan Bradshaw
While the sleek and sophisticated Dylan Bradshaw salon might be better known as a go-to place for your hair, their nail bar is actually also a bit of a hidden gem.
Opt for the Dylan Bradshaw Signature Pedicure, and enjoy a chilled glass of vino while you wait.
