How often (if at all) do you paint your nails?

    When I'm doing better financially I get a manicure pretty often. When I'm getting them less I don't paint them myself because they look like garbage. I just try to file them square and keep my cuticles neat.

    As of recently, once a week. I've been so busy that's the last thing on my mind.

    I used to do shellac 1x/ month.

    But I've started biting my nails again, so now, not at all.

    Pedicure once a month, handle my own fingernails once every couple of weeks. I wash my hands A LOT at work (preschool lol) so they chip pretty quick.

    All the time. My nails are horrible so I don't like looking at them, so they're always covered in polish. And it's a relaxing thing to do on fridays after classes are over.

    Can't, I'm taking culinary classes. No painting nails, wearing makeup, or putting on jewelry except for a plain wedding band if married. HAACCP, ServSafe. Wouldn't do it anyway.

    Never paint my fingernails but get a pedicure once a month or so.

    My fingernails, never. Get my daughter to do my toenails occasionally (usually the summer, lol)

    Only once in a while, but I get a manicure. Otherwise, cut them short. Not a fan of long nails.

    Probably once a week, plus the touch ups in between because I wash my hands pretty often.

    Maybe twice a year when the urge strikes me. I hate when girls walk around with chipped polish. Huge pet peeve, so if I do paint them it is on for about two days. Hardly seems worth it.

    Here lately, a friend does my fingernails once in a while. I don't pay attention to my always-hidden toenails.

    Never. Toes, once a week or so during the warmer months. Nail polish just won't stay on my hands longer than a day or two without chipping or peeling. Yuck.

    Every couple or few weeks, if I'm feeling girly ( not often) and if I'm a bit low I do it to perk me up

    I've actually never had a manicure. Never. I kind of feel left out now

    Toes when the chipped polish drives me nuts. I can't stand seeing my toenails naked
    and the fingers never really. I am brutal with them and my nails I was told once are too oily and polish doesn't stick on them very well

    I dabble in the female arts, painting nails a few times a month and war paint only on special occasions.
