Filing services?

Answer:

MANICURES

Hint:

Think of what you might get at a nail salon to smooth and shape the edges—it’s not just for looks!

Explanation:

This clue plays on the double meaning of "filing." While it sounds like organizing documents, it’s actually hinting at nail filing—a key part of a manicure. The question mark signals a pun, so "filing services" cleverly points to the beauty treatment where nails get filed and shaped. Think of a salon visit instead of an office task.
