Poll for manicure

[mamadeb]

My mother is standing under a canopy in three weeks. I'm wondering how I should do my nails

One thing to keep in mind - whatever it is has to look good on very short nails - and tips and wraps are out of the question.

And I apologize for the misplaced apostrophe.

I love manicures, and hate the feeling of polish on my fingernails. My favorite thing to have done is get my (very short) nails *buffed*. They look clean and shiny and pretty (kind of like clear nail polish, but different), and there's no need to worry about the polish chipping or drying funny or anything.

I do that all the time (okay, I do that once a month. It's a nice bit of pampering.) I'm not overly fond of the feeling of polish, either, but it would look more finished.

Add me to the buffing, er, buffs. I do it about once a month myself, just did it tonight. My nails aren't VERY short, but they aren't past my fingertips at this point, and they look MUCH better with a buff-job (and WAY better than the inevitable chipping that happens about an hour after I paint my nails/get them painted. Pedicures stay nice for WEEKS, but not so much with the manicures.
