Week #3-"Get a manicure!"


Don't mind if I do.  And while I'm at it, I'll get a pedicure too.

So, here are a couple of random things you might not know about me as it relates to mani/pedi activities:
  1. Yes, I will pay to have someone else do my nails. I don't like doing my own nails. It's too messy and frustrating when I smudge them.
  2. I'll pay extra for hot wax and a good foot massage. 
  3. I'm not a fan of chipped paint. Really...how hard can it be to remove finger nail polish?
  4. I'm a fan of men getting a mani/pedi...there is nothing wrong with clean, neat nails (especially toe nails) on a man. Don't knock it until you've tried it!
  5. I'm not really into getting a design, flower, heart, or jewel on my nails. I like my nails with just the polish. (I made an exception this time.)
  6. One of my favorite people to get a pedicure with is my cousin Rachel. It’s a bit of a tradition when she’s visiting from Italy.
  7. I love the names of nail polish. I'll not only pick the color based on the color, but also the name. The color I picked this time is called "Midnight in Russia".
  8. I'm a little obsessive about matchy, matchy...unless no one will see my toes (i.e. winter time) or I get clear polish on my finger nails (then my toes can be any color).
  9. I'm still not sure I understand the trend of painting the tips of your nail a different color.
  10. I like my nails short. I get a little anxious when they're too long. Especially my toe nails. So weird, I know.
Here's a photo of my Midnight in Russia finger and toes! The question mark design on my toe is to celebrate...2013 Year of Mystery.  Let me just say, it raised a few questions at the salon!

As I post these pictures, I'm reminded how weird feet and toes look.



P.S. This was an easy one. Week #4 is a bit of a challenge because it's a little subjective. But I'm looking forward to it!
