Toe nail fungus/Manicure?

If you have a noticable nail fungus and you go to have a pedicure will they give you one? What can you do about nails when you can't afford the medicine??Toe nail fungus/Manicure?
I am currently studying to be a nail tech.


In my course we have been strictly told that if a customer comes in with a nail fungus that we are not allowed to do any service on them, and to refer them to a doctor.


We also have to disinfect and sanitise evey file and metal tool that we use on you so we there is no chance of cross contamination. This also includes the foot soaking bowl we have to soak it in a high grade disinfectant before using on the next client. They are very strict on this procedure.


It's not good how one bad nail tech can give the rest of us a bad name.


Any good nail tech will refuse to do a pedicure on you. If you can't afford the medicine how come you can afford to get your nails done???Toe nail fungus/Manicure?
My doctor and I have been trying to get rid of my toenail fungus for a year without success. It is EXTREMELY difficult to cure and the medication often damages the liver. I have to have blood tests every month to monitor my liver condition due to the medication. Also, the meds R expensive.

I have this condition, and I find it very frustrating that neither medical science nor alternative medicine has come up with a topical, OTC medicine to cure it, because it's fairly common. I have tried the expensive, not-covered-by-medicare anti-fungal drugs, but they don't give a permanent cure. I don't know about the pedicure situation, but all you can do is ask them anonymously on the phone. I just keep my toenails trimmed and ignore the fungus. If you go barefoot in the summer, paint your toenails.
First off, you probably got the toe nail fungus from the pedicure place!!





Didnt you see the spot on the National Nightly News about pedicures? How the woman caught something from the ';soak';, and a few women were dying from it as thier feet are rotting off!!





They dont clean those devices in which they soak your toes and feet, in fact, if you look in the bottom of them, they will have debris, sludge toe clippings, and other ';gunk'; in there that would discust anyone who saw that!





I would never let my Wife get a pedicure from anyone, lisenced or not!





Also, they use the same clippers on you that they use on people with other fungus and you could of caught it from them that way!





See if you can get a prescription of amoxcillian 500 mg and that ';may'; clear it up! Three pills a day. (Its an antibiotic).





(No I am not a Pysician, but, I know what works, and have seen it work).





I wish you well...

They may not. Many people end up with a fungus or worse from getting a pedicure and you don't want to be part of that problem do you? Have you tried the OTC products like these:

If you can afford a pedicure you can probably afford these. Not treating a fungus can lead to other health problems.

Manicure question?

I'm going to get my nails done soon, and I was just wondering what color polish i should get, if i should get acrylic nails, what shape, etc. etc.





whats hot this spring?Manicure question?
I ALWAYS go for the french tips. Clean and classy.


I wouldn't do acrylics, I mean they look nice, but whenever I get them my nails break and are very brittle. They're not that good for your nails and it's not worth it.Manicure question?
this spring what color is hot is either lime green, natural lavender or natural pink.

French manicure help?

hi im getting a french manicure for the first time! in my life and im not sure how long it will last and is it better than a regular pedicure? Do they use regular nail piant or some powder?French manicure help?
An acrylic French manicure will use no polish, or perhaps a clear top coat. They use 2 different color powders to sculpt the nail onto you original nails and perhaps use forms to extend the free edge. They should stay on and not need attention for 2 weeks, then you will need to go back and get a fill to cover the nail that grew out during that time. Every 6 weeks you will need a back-fill to move the smile line back where it is supposed to be.





If they use polish, they will simply paint on the French manicure and that will start to chip. How long that takes depends on the quality of the base coat and top coat the use, and the kind of things you do with your hands.French manicure help?
Hi. Are you going to get tips? Because tips take a long time to get done, but they are worth it. But if your just getting a regular french manicure, then it probably won't take too long. Maybe 10 minutes, depending on the salon your at. No, it isn't powder, or regular nail paint. It is something like regular nail paint though. But I think you should just get a regular manicure because the white stuff some thimes chips and gets tiny holes. Try it out though. You may like it. I know I did!
hey!! when i get my nails done at the salon they just paint them with nail polish but if u want them to do tips u should ask them to .......i have done them onece and i LOVE Them!!!!!! i hope this helped you
depends on the salon your at...when i get french it usually takes like 30mins-45mins and they use polish
whos cares?

what tools will i need


thanksTrue french manicure? easy ten points?
The top coat must be a transparent-pink color %26amp; than add white tips.True french manicure? easy ten points?
If you want french tips i highly suggest staying away from fake nails. they destroy your nails. Just use nail polish. Use white nail polish to cover the natural white tips of your nails. then put a light pink almost nude color over it once nail tips dry. then put clear coat. also i suggest using sally Hansen quick dry stuff. it works amazingly and drys in seconds and doesnt chip
first do a clear base coat


then you need a white tip liner it cannot be reg. nail polish.


then paint over it with the color of you choice


last apply a top coat
You do the white tips first, and then either pink or tan over that on the whole nail.
