I'm about to take off my week old polish, trying to decide what color to paint them now.  It's been ages since I've kept them painted, figure we'll see how long I can keep it up while I'm thinking about it, instead of just picking it off!  think I'll go for one of my favs, a green/blue/purpley color.  I Love the way it makes my nails/fingers look!

Do you paint your nails?  Do you tend to chip/pick it off after a day or two, or do you leave it on for a while?  Do you get them done at a salon?  What's your fav color to paint them and why?

Apr. 17, 2007 at 12:54 AM sometimes i paint them..when i have time. im actually good at leaving it alone and i dont pick at it. I use clear undercoat then 2 coats of whatever color and clear top coat that usually keeps it from flaking off. I like the purple blu and green colors too lol but i love the deep deep reds those are my favs. i just love the color of it dont really have a reason

Apr. 24, 2007 at 6:09 PM Well, sorry I didn't see your journal post til now! Anyway, I do paint mine. Usually a light color, that way if they chip or it wears off, you can't hardly tell. I usually do them every 2 to 3 days though. I used to get them done in a nail salon and always had a french manicure. I still love that. But, can't afford it now that I don't work. Once I get a part time job, I will so be jumpin on that!!!!!!!!!!!

My nails are currently a bright purply color.  Surprised it's lasted almost a week!  But it's chipped, so I'll be redoing it soon.  Blue or pink? decisions decisions!
