Pre-Wedding Nail Care
My nails are pretty pathetic. I can grow them to a decent length but they break easily and the actual nail is really small. I just got a manicure last weekend and I’m hoping that my nails grow long for the wedding. Some tips I’ve learned while frantically searching for solutions:

• Keep It Clean: This should be obvious enough - keep your nails as clean as possible
• Cut: Again, this should be fairly obvious – cutting your nails regularly helps maintain healthier nails
• Olive Oil: For stronger nails, soak your hands in olive oil for 10-15 minutes and massage oil onto your nails/cuticles. This also helps with the growth of your nails

Although I don’t have time to sit idly for 15-20 minutes everyday, I am hoping that I can atleast massage oil on my hands everyday. If you have tried this, please let me know how well it worked for you! If not, give it a try with me

Wedding Day Nails
I’m definitely not painting my nails to match my bridal outfits – I don’t like seeing red/maroon nails on a bride (I always picture a crazy bride in a red/maroon outfit with loooong red/maroon nails). I’ll be getting a french manicure as I think it looks timeless and classy.

I’m thinking of getting Shellac mani/pedi, I’d love to hear your thoughts if you’ve gotten it done. Do any of you know good nail salons in Mississauga? I’m a complete newbie in the nail department so any help would be greatly appreciated

My nails as of last week – they can grow, right?
