What's the difference in going to a day spa for a mani/pedi than going to a nail salon?

Question

My girlfriend went to a nail salon yesterday and this asian man did her nails. Of course they were nice and stuff. She had me tag along and I didn't even know what was going on. I don't like the smell of nail shops, I guess it's the acrylic maybe? That's what I was told. Anyway last time she went to a day spa an paid $40 for a pedicure and @ at the nail shop she paid $20 bucks for a "full set with french tips" whatever that is. I seen on the price list that a pedi starts @ $20. So what I am trying to figure out is why go to the day spa and pay 2x more than you would @ a typical nail shop? I'm a guy so Im beyond clueless... lol guess its a lady thing.

Nail salon simply does your nails. Day spa will give you the nails, but also massage/ moisturize hadns/arms/legs etc. Day spa is the works thats why it costs moreh
