Worried that the “do you have?” discussion is forever becoming a fashion trap? Take a page from how not to get into that at an event or by commenting on your favorite celebrity’s Instagram feed? Well, A$AP Rocky might have the answer to all of your drama-free situations. While making a visit to the top female manicurist at NYC’s Chris Appleton Nails, the rap star confessed his confusion about the fine line that separates attraction and contempt. “Manicures are beautiful, but men in politics and just like all men, it’s uncomfortable to see women just like that,” Rocky reportedly said. “We have to be able to show them, ‘What the f*ck, babe? You’re not a stylist. You don’t know what you’re talking about.'”

We know the challenges of the traditional office environment, but what would you, as a man, do if your co-workers told you that showing off your nails was unacceptable? We can’t say for sure what Rocky had in mind in regards to his potential position of power, but we have a few ideas. If you’d like to experiment yourself at home, here are four at-home manicure designs that even Beyoncé could try — especially for your “basic” guy friends. Now your job is only half-done.
