poll - mani/pedi

do you get manis and/or pedis ? 

Re: poll - mani/pedi

  • i got a pedi today for the first time in 2 years and it was fantastic!!! :) i didnt get my first pedi till college and i got them every so often in college..... but i think i have gotten only 3 or 4 since 2006! i usually paint my own toenails.

    i have only gotten like 4 manicures in my whole life - and i got the fake nails. fake nails just make my real nails SOOO thin and unhealthy afterwards :(  

  • The last time was for my wedding so 3 1/2 years ago. My plan is to go in the next couple of months to get at least a pedi. My fingernails are horrible. They grow and then they break. I really need to take the time to keep them nice and stuff but I don't.

  • during the summer I go once a month to get pedicures but I am trying to be better about doing it myself this summer.  It's something I do with the BFF that we don't do with other people, it's gotten pretty serious ;)

    I rarely get manis because they just don't last on my nails. I tend to keep my nails a bit longer so the polish chips really fast.  I do like to paint them with a pale pink so when they do start to chip it's not as noticeable.

  • No the last time I got a mani was for my wedding and I got fake nails on then. Which was only like the 3rd time to get them and I hated them the entire time. They do make your nails so thin and it takes awhile before they get back to normal.

    I have had a pedi maybe 2 times in my life. Honestly I hate people touching my feet and it makes me so uncomfortable that I can not relax. So I paint my own toenails but I think they look as good. Sometimes I do soak them but not all the time.

  • I get pedis whenever i can..I've gotten 2 so far this year which is way more than I was getting them in the previous years. I really love getting them, but I don't get manis...I like my nails short ( i bite them :/) and I change the paint often.
  • I get them maybe once a year.

    I got a mani/pedi a few weeks ago and was so disappointed in the pedi.  My heels were so rough the next day, and the toe nail polish chipped in just a few days.  Last summer I had a pedi that lasted over a month!  I was so excited b/c I could barely reach my toes to change the polish.

    Heather, be careful getting a pedi now.  Last summer my ankles and feet swelled so badly from the hot water that I could barely walk later that day and the next day.

    I can count on one hand manis/pedis I have gotten in my life.  I would love to get them both a lot more often but the cost is just crazy to me.  I save them for special occasions instead.
  • Nope.

    I've never had a pedi, and I kinda refuse to.  I hate the very thought of someone touching my feet.

    I've had a few mani's, but really...I don't love them.  I don't find them relaxing, and I've had one or two that have actually hurt (when they were doing whatever with the cuticles).  I like the end result, though.
