The first time I spent any real time in a spa I was 18-years-old and left the hotel with a business card from Janice. The first three words that came to mind were “Where the hell do you even get my salon’s name?”

“Well, I do?” she replied. “Don’t worry about it!”

Within 10 days I’d me a booking to go into the scentsome, and our expectations were through the roof. Yes, Janice was a sex-worker out to spice up my life but she was also very interested in understanding me as a person. She’d go through my insecurities and taught me that I h a lot of questions and that every woman needs to know the answers to questions. The self-confidence part came from looking as good as I could, but I wouldn’t tre her for the world.

The next time I stayed at a hotel I was 19 and still did my own nails. Another week in, I decided I was rey to make the leap to a manicure. I asked my mother what it looked like, and she showed me a picture of an elegant manicure I’d done in high school. I gave my nails a big ol’ gosh-darn-wow. She said, “How the f**k did you do that? How are you going to do it later on? I don’t know anything about nails.” And it was true. I learned a few lessons from my nail technician that day:

1. Laying your fingertips bare is always sexy.

2. Nails show character.

3. I alrey know how a girl with 1,000 inch manis should cut her nails, so I might as well be sexy too.

4.When you wear short shorts with tank tops it can be very sexy.

5. Wearing heels does not mean you are old (somayyyyyyyy).

6. Every woman should have some cool, tongue-in-cheek neon manicure color because she is the kind of girl who loves neon.

7. Always choose the best style for your skin.

8. If you can’t have natural nails, go for a fruity detail inste.

9. I can get away with one.

10. Find the area around your inner ear where your bones are and apply a few different shes of polish there.

12. Don’t ask the hairdresser for your hair colour before you go home. If you do, you are committing the ultimate SELF-SUICIDE.

13. Nails are permanent and cannot be changed once you’ve left the salon.

14. Yes, it was worth it!

15. There is nothing sexier than a flat brown manicure. I don’t even mean it; I’m sure you know what I mean.

16. If there is a display dedicated to beautiful lies in heels, then it is MY fantasy.

17. Also, I go for high tops inste of cropped shorts. The exfoliating of stubble and discoloration of arms works wonders on your nails.

18.Me can get away with a nail art that compliments my clothing, which does mean I have a cool sense of style.

19. For men, I think it’s important to embrace one’s darker side so that you stand out and have a party like man.

20. A beautiful polish can reflect a sultry look. And do not be afraid to wear your nail polish to bed. You look beautiful and sexy on the weekends.

21. This is why shoes are so important to us women.

22. For every woman, you can always bring back your best self to the salon and give them a perfect manicure.

23. We all need a little pampering now and then.

24. We can always fall back to what is safe and nice because we never know what is around the corner! We love bright colours, but everyone deserves some protection!

25. We love all things Manic and our nails show it. It also gives us a great canvas for promoting our fashion sense.

29. We can always start our Sunday with a beautiful manicure. After the struggle of our weekend wear, our nails are looking lovely and refreshed. And who says that’s hard to find?!

30. We love to dress to impress and take pride in wearing our nail polish and we never fail to look so impressive.

35. Or just as you want to switch up your look, its a great way to break free from that boring hues and match your nails to a color you really like.

36. Finally, nails bring a sense of calm to your life.

37. We enjoy heing to the nail salon every week for some treatment.

38. Do what you want and enjoy what you are wearing, thats the key to understanding and expressingyour style.

39. Sometimes we wear the same thing all the time so why not don a new pair of Manic!

38. Even though we are away from the salon, we really enjoy enjoying the exciting detail we can get with Manic.
