i work on feet for a living!
Be SO careful of where you get your feet done! The places that have the whirlpool tubs are a feeding ground for fungus. Seek out a pedicurist who uses a basin which can be sterilized in between each client. Foot fungus are so easy to get, can last for years and be impossible to get rid of, also can lead to loss of toenails or surgery! This is how a pedicure should be done:

The places like the one i show below cannot sterilize the water coming and going and i cannot tell you how many people that i see in my work are dealing with foot funguses years later because they went to a place like this. They try their best to keep them sterile but it's impossible. If someone comes in with a foot fungus, that water sets in the pipes and gets send back in to the tub where the feet go. Also there are some places that prohibit anyone but a pediatrist to cut the toenails, less experienced techs can cut them too short (ingrown toenails) or nick the skin which invites infection, i get mine filed when i go, never clipped.

White newer socks are a must, the feet contain over 100,000 sweat glands in each foot, so yah that's a lot of sweat so throw out the old socks and keep the new ones going. Your feet (and lover) will love you for it.
