Re: Pet Peeve...Toe Nails...

When I notice I just look away. I'm not going to judge anyone by their toe nails.

I used to have a horrible time keeping my feet looking sandal ready so I can sort-of relate to some of them. I'd get a professional pedicure and my feet would look dry and calloused the next day.

Neatly groomed feet with no nail polish looks fine, IMO.

Maybe some don't care but others have probably given up because they could not keep up. They would benefit if they knew about new tools like the Emjoi Micro-Pedi (a life-changing purchase!) or the more basic Ped-Egg.

My current challenge is keeping my feet looking good when I am very active and walking a lot every day. I have had to deal with blisters and the callouses pop up faster, too. Then I have the polish rubbing off because I am wearing closed-toe walking shoes most of the time. I keep telling myself I need to wait until after my walking for the day and then I end up doing other things. Like sleeping!

Re: Pet Peeve...Toe Nails...

The worst is guys with terrible toe nails, cut them for pete's sake!

I personally cannot stand long toe nails on myself, or others really, but I keep mine trimmed and painted or I don't show them. I haven't worn flip flops yet this year because my toes aren't ready, and it hasn't really been warm enough, but I'm due to do them! I might do them tonight since it's supposed to be 80 today and tomorrow.

My pet peeve is....people who judge the appearance of others when they really need to just mind their own business.

An estimated 700,000 people around the world, 400,000 of them children, have died so far due to the discontinuation of the USAID program.

I think the people that have the grubby feet just tell themselves that nobody looks at them. It definitely is something that people notice.

... lady can afford booze by the gallon so she can afford some nail clippers and file!


Maybe it's too dangerous for her to be handling sharp implements near her body.

Re: Pet Peeve...Toe Nails...

I don't like feet lol. I have never had a manicure or pedicure done at a salon. Those are things I like to do myself. I like toenails to be kept very short. I don't think they always need to be polished and I would rather see them bare than have the dreadful French manicure look on them (I hate the look on fingers too) which makes them look too long.

Re: Pet Peeve...Toe Nails...

O/T but speaking of feet. WHERE can I find those spongey things one puts between their toes for a pedicure (I do my own yet)? I can find the hard as concrete ones, but they hurt! Remember the soft mooshey ones? That's what I'm looking for. Any suggestions? Thank you, and sorry for butting in.

Re: Pet Peeve...Toe Nails...

And please, if you are not going to wear polish on your tootsies and your nails look dingy, yellow and yucky, and you can't get them to look clean, you can buy a powder that you put into warm water and dip your toes into, and they will bring your toenails back to the pretty white they should be!

I also know there is also a way to do it at home, probably with hydrogen peroxide and baking powder, I'm guessing?
