Toe nails

JessM you can have fancy stuff on your toes. Had pretty gold design on mine last year. Never see the point on fingers, chips too soon. Have been told shellac worth trying.

Some people have fancy nail art on their fingernails. Can you have it done on your toes? and does anyone?

Soak, exfoliate, cut nails straight across and then varnish, colour to match my mood anything from palest pink to scarlet

I was - see my post about 'claustrophobic nails'!

Speak for yourself ana

Aren't we a funny lot?

Oh no kitty cant let anyone else touch my feet, have to do it myself.

Having my toe nails done at the local beauty shop in the village serves two purposes - nice nails on appalling feet and a catch up on village gossip. It has to be done at least every six weeks!

No point in having my finger nails done, last time one was chipped before I made it home - a five minute walk

jane ainsworth the V cut in toe nails is not true! cant be done unless they are over long.

Three pages on toenails - they are fascinating! How many pages can it keep going for?

Now, what colour shall I varnish mine, something that goes with everything as I can't be bothered to keep doing them?

Going on school trip for a week involving thick socks and walking boots so no point in varnishing toenails until I get back. May even treat myself to annual pedicure to celebrate sunshine. That said, prepare for snow at least

Marmight you are the only person I've ever come across who who gets that 'claustrophobic' feeling if they wear nail varnish, like me! It's as though my fingernails can't breathe - so I don't wear it!

Toenails? Can't believe there are three pages on this topic! They're there, need to be trimmed, need to be clean. Done.

Cut and scarlet all year round but finger nails are usually bare, sometimes put a little nude varnish on them but very rarely. treebee Avon gel is really good I it was reduced

Ninathenana, sorry, I forgot to say that it`s also a podiatry clinic.

Perhaps I should treat myself and get my toenails done, however they are not the prettiest sight in the world even with nail polish.

I always have my toenails 'polished' in summer or whenever my feet are on view. At the mo, They are a lovely bronzey orange shade which compliments the tan I got in France last week but I usually go for burgundy or purple. However, I have to have someone else do them as I go over the edges if I try myself!
I hate having my fingernails painted - they feel trapped as in claustrophobia and they always get chipped, so why bother. I have the same feeling with the fizog which is why I hardly ever wear makeup, not that it would make much difference to the lines, creases and double chins......

I thought perhaps you were in an interesting position, sparkygran, that is why you kept hitting the 'post' button.

Surely socks with sandals usually go with a beard? As with one dear and lovely chap I worked with a few years ago. I never saw his toenails, however.

Oh dear I`ve managed to post 3 times - sometimes I just despair of myself

Cut and paint in summer. But is it me or the older a person gets the more difficult it is to reach the toenails particularly the little ones - I do end up in some interesting positions
