Manicure Pedicure- At home or salon

Just curious what everyone does.
Before having my DD I went WEEKLY for mani/pedi

After having DD i had much less time so I would go every 2-4 weeks.

Now 3 years later I have even LESS time and I am lucky if I get to go AT ALL so since DD likes her nails done a lot too I bought a lot of my own stuff (even buy Essie colors) and try and do them at home.

Just curious what everyone else does.

Re: Manicure Pedicure- At home or salon

I do my own nails and pedi. Sometimes I will treat myself to a salon pedi, but mostly I do it myself. I never get the salon manis because I feel they rush through putting the polish on and they do it too thick so I'd rather just do my own...

Re: Manicure Pedicure- At home or salon

Way back in the day I'd go over week for a mani and like once a month for a pedi

Now I do my own nails every week.
I didn't like spending the money only to have them chip the next day.
Not to mention I have no time anymore either

As for toes- I do my own at home as well due to a fungus issue that I am having trouble clearing up.. I used to like going for that though- I am NOT good at doing my own toes

I do mani-pedi in the salon for special occasions, and I do them at home for all other times.

Re: Manicure Pedicure- At home or salon

I used to get pedis fairly regularly at the salon but the fungus issue really freaks me out so I do them at home. I've gotten pretty good, I think.

I almost never give myself manis because they chip too easily but when I do it's always at home, never a salon. Not worth the $$ when they are going to chip in a day.

Both mani and pedi at the salon. It's the only thing I do for myself or spend money on for myself and I look so forward to the pampering.

Salon - not frequently. I usually keep them cut short without polish.
