Is $51,000 the World’s Most Expensive Manicure?

Do you think you could get $51,000 for a manicure? I’m thinking there probably aren’t a lot of clients in the market for that level of service. But if there was ever a place for this, it would definitely be Dubai, known for its opulent luxury. La Moda Dubai has announced that Cherish…ME is offering the Iced Manicure the “world’s most expensive diamond manicure.”
From the company’s website, “The Iced Manicure epitomizes luxury exclusivity, elegance and style. It lavishes your fingertips with 10 carats of brilliant white cut and polished diamonds, making it the ultimate extravagance.” 10 CARATS? OF DIAMONDS? Are you kidding me? I mean, what if you broke a nail?
Apparently, after an exclusive consultation, the team at Cherish…Me will travel anywhere in the world to adorn a client’s hands with the Iced Manicure. The aftercare service includes the removal of the stones and another consultation to create a unique piece of jewelry using the retrieved diamonds. (I was wondering what they’d do with the diamonds once the enhancements start growing out.)
In case you are interested (I’d love to meet you if you are!) you can e-mail info@cherish-me.com to set up a consultation.
Let’s bring this down to a more realistic level. What’s your most extravagant service? What’s it called? What do you charge for it? What makes it special?

So the most Ive ever been paid for a set of nails is $600 , and that was for an insane set of Stillet Nails with intricate one stroke art.....although this sounds like an insane price, I think for Cherish...ME it really has acheived its true intent, BRANDING and INTERNATIONAL ACCLAIM!!! look at us, we may never get these nails but we are certainly talking about them!!!
