What is the primary benefit of using a foot soak before a pedicure?

Removing dead skin
Preparing the skin
Enhancing nail growth
Applying color

The correct answer is: Preparing the skin

The primary benefit of using a foot soak before a pedicure is that it prepares the skin. Soaking the feet helps to soften the skin, making it easier to remove calluses and dead skin during the pedicure process. It also helps in relaxing the muscles and promoting blood circulation, which contributes to an overall more enjoyable pedicure experience. The warm water in the soak can open up the pores, allowing for better absorption of any products used afterward, such as scrubs or moisturizers. This preparation is essential for achieving the best results during the pedicure, ensuring that the skin is in optimal condition for treatment and aesthetics.
