Think your days at the salon are long gone? Think again. Several salons in and around the Seattle area make it easy and, dare we say, enjoyable to experience being pampered from tip to toe with your tot in tow. If your mini-me has been begging to get her hands (and piggies) in on the mani-pedi action, read on for the best places to dress up your digits together.

Julep

Tenoverten Nail Salon

You won’t find cutesy chairs or pinkalicious puff at the Julep salons. What you will find is a sophisticated mommy and me experience with 3-Free nail polishes and only natural nails (no acrylics here) that make going to the nail parlor safer for kiddos and mommies-to-be. Julep makes their own products (psst…and sells them at Ulta!), so they know exactly what’s in there. And they love to provide services to mommy-daughter pairs. Moms can enjoy the Porch Pedi or Mani with shaping, grooming, lotion and a massage, while the little miss gets a simple soak and color. Plan on 30 minutes for a Junior Julep Pedi and 15 minutes for a Junior Julep Mani, and a little longer for each of mom’s services.

Good to Know: Be sure to take advantage of Julep’s Mommy Mondays from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. This dream-come-true service lets you get your nails done while someone plays with and entertains your wee one, for no extra charge. It’s a simple pleasure that’s sure to get your week off on the right (newly polished) foot!

Brat Pack Kids Salon & Spa Parties

Brat Pack Salon

Princesses big and small will get a kick out of the Royal Sit-N-Soak at the Brat Pack Salon in Redmond. This fancy, kid-focused service really plays up the pink factor during this totally girlie service. The little ones will don super fuzzy robes and princess party accessories (we could all use a little more tiara in our lives), while soaking their cute little toes. Meanwhile, mom will get a foot soak, paraffin dip and polish, and a little bonding time with her tiniest gal. Or, set up the Pampered Diva treatment for your budding starlet and she’ll also enjoy a mini mani, sparkle makeover (think sparkly eye shadow a la the 80’s) and even a temp tattoo and a parting gift. A round of pink lemonade tops this afternoon. We’re pretty sure this is how Kate Middleton does it. Plan between 45 minutes and one hour for these luscious packages, and be sure to call a few days in advance to book your appointment.

Sweet Feet Salon

Sweet Feet Salon

The cute and fuzzy bear chairs at City Nails in West Seattle make the perfect perch for your little princess, while she’s prettying it up with a basic buff, and polish of her choice. Meanwhile, moms get to relax, indulgent trashy mag in hand, in a massage chair while someone works away on her weary, calloused feet. A little filing here, a little massaging there and you’ll feel like a real person again in no time. Moms and daughters will love the little extra bling that can be added to nails, too. After all, those flowers, stars and gems really bring out the smiles in the under 10 crowd. But sparkles or no, your feet and hands will get the pampering they deserve at this kid-friendly nail parlor.
