Do you like to have your nails done? I'm talking about manicure which is a cosmetic beauty treatment for fingernails
No I have not ever had a manicure before. I would try it if I got a recommendation from someone. What tools are used for a manicure?
Manicure masters use cuticle pushers and cuticle nippers to clip and push nonliving tissue and then they use different files to shape the nails
Wow, I had no idea there were tools to reform cuticles. I guess I don't know much about cosmetics. Around here it seems that many nail salons are owned by Vietnamese.
Really? Over here most of the manicurists are Chinese. Some are really good artists and can paint pictures on nails
That is amazing. A very steady hand must be required to do that. Do they also offer pedicures?
Some do, some don't Pedicures are popular among women
I was recently at a wedding where all the women were wearing high heels. I bet many had pedicures after trying to dance in those!
the Latin words "pedis", which means "of the foot", and "cura", which means "care".
History.
People have been pedicuring their nails for more than 4,000 years. In southern Babylonia, noblemen used solid gold tools to give themselves manicures and pedicures. The use of fingernail polish can be traced back even further. Originating in China in 3000 BC, nail color indicated one’s social status, according to a Ming Dynasty manuscript; royal fingernails were painted black and red.
Manicure
A manicure is a cosmetic beauty treatment for the fingernails and hands performed at home or in a nail salon. A manicure consists of filing and shaping the "free edge", pushing and clipping (with a cuticle pusher and cuticle nippers) any nonliving tissue (but limited to the cuticle and hangnails), treatments with various liquids, massage of the hand, and the application of fingernail polish. When the same is applied to the toenails and feet, the treatment is referred to as a pedicure.
