File This One Under Short Cuts
Hi ladies! I have a couple of tips to share with you today. Let me begin by saying this: Yes, I know it’s best not to cut your cuticles and to just have them pushed back. But I have this gnawing little habit of cutting mine with cuticle nippers (you can find all sorts at drugstore.com). What can I say? It helps my thinking process. I used to do it with a nail clipper, so this is a vast improvement. If you have to do it, I say go for it. And as for emery boards: Instead of metal ones, I like soft, pliable files because they’re gentler on your uñas. For those who get manicures on the regular, know that manicurists arent’ supposed to use the same emery board on more than one customer. Bring your own to be safe, or think twice about holding out your hands if you see a worn-out file pointed at your fingertips.

Thank you, thank you for reminding everyone about the cleanliness and saftey in even the most upscale Nail Salons!! Bringing your own tools are totally necessary. I am speaking from personal experience having suffered the “fungus infections from even the simpliest nail procedure and Silk wraps etc. had me with out nails for many many months and ITS a very ugly site and one that cannot be covered while healing. Please remember it can happen anywhere. PROTECT yourself.
Thanks for this latest email. Peggyms
