I've had no pedicures, and 3 manicures in my whole life. I think one of the manicures,I won some sort of bet, that's why I got it (it was a LONG time ago, can't remember who lost) and the second one, one of my sisters felt sorry for me just in a general, overall way,which made me feel worse, so that the manicurist asked me if I was "very unhappy" that day. The third one my mother bought me because it was a 2 for 1 deal, or something. The manicurist made odd accusations to/at my hands and nails,(called them weak and broken) which I somehow took as personal character defects. This left me feeling defeated rather than motivated to change.
I would say I like to take care of my own nails if I did, but I just do it out of duty and good hygeine,nothing more.I rarely feel festive enough to paint them
,so I suppose I look like a rather dull,conforming and neutral person with no tangible opinions--if anyone is actually lookking that closely at me, much less at my hands. :smile:
