Do you paint your nails?

**Michelle** · 03-20-2002, 07:42 PM

I used to do them B.K. (before kids), but now I just seem to collect nail polish but never really make the time to do them.

This is another thing I have let go of as I've gotten older, now I do them 5-6 times a year, generally before vacations, holidays, big parties...

No I don't

I'd like to though but Dh doesn't like nail polish...talk about picky

LOL

I used to have acryllic nails and I loved them because they'd all be the same length and always looked great. But since we've got our house I stopped because there's other things I can spend $50. a month on. Now I keep them as short as possible.

Um what are finger nails. lol

I have those really thin nails that never seem to look good. I keep them pretty short and then use just a clear nail polish on them. I usually use Sally Hansen. My goal is for my nails just to look neat and clean.

I used to when I was in high school. I painted them once when the boys were little, and they had a fit. They didn't like it. Now I just don't have time.

I love painting my nails, but with a 5 year old and a 7 month old, I just don't have the time anymore.

at least once a week. I have more nail polish then i will use in a lifetime. do both fingers and toes. always have long nails.

I only paint my toenails, and only during sandal season, and only a peachy-pinky color that's not too obnoxious. I paint my toenails 'cause I can never get 'em completely clean underneath, and they look gross in open-toed shoes.

In high school, it was a twice a week mandatory. Now the oil at work eats the polish off so I have given up.

I do the wild woman thing and paint my toe nails. I love to shock my boyfriend with what I call "trailer trash" toes (I say this will tons of affection--some of my relations qualify for this statis, LOL) 'sides it makes me feel pretty.

I always keep paint on my fingernails. I have painted them for so long that they are stained a funky yukky color so I have to keep polish on them.

Blessings,
Kathy

very rare now. After my first divorce i would have them done professionally. not now. there is no where here to have them done.

**Leiloni77** · 11-01-2002, 12:56 AM

Every two weeks I go have them professionally done.
There are things you can do to pamper yourself, but my hands are seen very closely at work. When I am stuffing teddy bears, I don't want hang nails or anything unsightly.. plus long nails are great for pulling string tight!!!
