Manicure

Beautiful nails are a must for some women. Some like them more colorful, others stick to classic styles. Some girls prefer to do things themselves, and others choose to turn to professionals. But sometimes, trying to make them look unique backfires. Unfortunately, it can be hard to avoid a manicure tragedy.

There is an opinion that the modern beauty industry works exceptionally for women. However, stylish hairstyles, taking care of oneself, hair dying, and even manicures are now available for men. The representatives of the strong part of the planet now visit salons, pluck their brows, and take care of the way they look. The result often exceeds all expectations.

In recent years, people have realized that nail art offers unlimited creative opportunities. And professional artists are more than successful at it. But the people from this article decided to do their own manicures themselves.

When women go to the beauty salon to dye their hair or get a manicure, they hope that the people working there are professionals that will do exactly what the client asks. But unfortunately, sometimes the results of cosmetic procedures are very far from people’s expectations, and it’s really sad when people pay a lot of money for this.

Sometimes, it seems that finding a good beauty salon is even harder than finding a good husband. You might even pay a lot of money for a manicure or a haircut but still end up with something that a child could do better. And you will have to pay again to have it fixed.

There are days in our lives when we want a transformation: whether it be a change in our hair color, a manicure, or even a simple bang trim. Some people ask professionals for help, and others try to do it themselves. But there’s no guarantee that any of them will succeed.

Job interviews can be different. Some make you feel confident because you give the right answers and look like a million bucks, others make you feel extremely worried and you end up talking about nonsense while wishing to vanish from there as soon as possible. What’s worse, if the potential employer turns out to be a weirdo, it makes this task even more difficult.

Human beings naturally tend to size each other up. And we do it pretty quickly too — in just 7 seconds a person can piece together their first impression of a complete stranger. Our brain takes account of everything: their posture, the timbre of their voice, their clothes. And, of course, we involuntarily pay attention to all sorts of tiny details, like chipped nail paint or a missing button.

For many modern women, manicures aren’t just about nail care and different colors of polish — it’s a philosophy. Women learn new techniques, think over every small detail, and spend hours drawing different patterns in order to express their individuality.

Taking care of oneself is an important part of any girl’s life. Eyelash extensions, manicures, depilation, brow correction, and hair dyeing are all standard practices for any fashionista. These procedures can be repeated again and again and it’s not that easy to break out of this vicious cycle. However, modern tendencies are more prone toward organic and eco-friendliness, which is why more and more women are ditching the salons and going back to their natural beauty.

The image of a Brazilian woman is quite stereotypical for most foreigners — a tanned beauty who spends most of her time on the beach or dances at Carnival. It’s not for nothing that this opinion exists — every female resident of Brazil feels proud of her body and allows herself some good rest on a regular basis. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

New Year and Christmas are a great reason to change your manicure and become the real star of these festive evenings. And the imagination of modern fashionistas is truly endless — there are paintings of snow-covered buildings, pine branches, and even characters from our favorite TV series.

We’re so used to going to the bathroom and finding the usual stuff there that we hardly ever stop to think about whether or not it’s actually “normal” to have those things in there. At first sight, it might seem like having your razor blade, or even toilet paper, stored there is sort of the obvious thing to do since you’ll be using these things in there, and only in there. However, it turns out that things that we normally find in bathrooms would better be stored somewhere else.

Sooner or later, every girl decides to change something in her look. Some prefer beauty treatments, others, on the contrary, avoid them. It’s not always easy to give up on makeup and hair removal procedures, as well as to decide to grow hair or eyebrows. But the result often exceeds all of our expectations.

We have fingernails because they help to protect us from viruses and bacteria. But one question still remains: why do toenails grow much slower than fingernails? Scientists don’t like mysteries and studied this topic to get some answers.

Some women draw incredible patterns on their nails and ask manicurists in the salons to make their nail extensions longer, while others prefer the short, natural look. But in any case, every woman has a couple of stories related to getting a manicure — from the first-ever, self-made gel polish to the invaluable help of a woman’s husband who had to draw flowers on her nails.

Recently there have been many rumors on social media and various forums that one can get hepatitis or some other scary diseases while getting a manicure. As a result, some of us have even started to file our own nails and apply our own nail polish, while others have ignored these rumors and continued going to get nail salon procedures they are accustomed to.

Manicure and pedicure are now as ordinary as brushing teeth and brushing hair. We trust our nails to artists in beauty salons without even thinking. But we have no idea what dangers these simple procedures might hide if you don’t take very simple precautions.
