Pregnancy is a time of major changes — physically, emotionally, and in daily routines. Many expectant mothers question the safety of beauty treatments, including pedicures. One option gaining attention is the pedicure without polish. At MONLIS Studio in Munich, we take such concerns seriously and offer safe, customized treatments specifically designed for pregnant clients.
Is a Pedicure Without Polish Safe During Pregnancy?
Yes – a pedicure without polish is absolutely safe during pregnancy and often even recommended. Since there are no chemical substances involved, such as solvents or UV-curing products, there is no risk from fumes or harsh ingredients. The focus is entirely on hygiene, foot care, and relaxation – aspects especially important during pregnancy.
Benefits of a Polish-Free Pedicure for Expectant Mothers
1. Maximum Safety:
By skipping nail polish, removers, and UV lights, we eliminate exposure to potentially irritating substances. This is especially important during the first trimester or in more sensitive pregnancies.
2. Targeted Foot Care:
At MONLIS Studio, our beauty experts use high-quality, skin-friendly products to gently remove calluses, shape nails, and moisturize the skin – all adapted to pregnancy-related hormonal changes.
3. Full-Body Relaxation:
A professional foot massage improves circulation, reduces swelling, and relieves stress. Many pregnant women report feeling more relaxed and balanced after regular pedicure sessions.
4. Hygiene and Prevention:
Regular pedicures help prevent or detect early signs of calluses, ingrown toenails, or fungal infections – issues that may become more frequent during pregnancy due to hormonal shifts.
5. Natural Beauty and Confidence:
Well-groomed feet look beautiful even without polish. For many women, self-care during pregnancy is an important way to support self-esteem and emotional well-being.

When Is the Best Time for a Pedicure During Pregnancy?
Many women prefer the second trimester, as the common discomforts of the first trimester (like nausea or fatigue) have usually subsided, and the baby bump is not yet too large. However, pedicures can also be especially beneficial in the third trimester, when swollen feet and difficulty reaching the toes become more prominent.
