1.Remove old nail polish. Wet a cotton pad with polish remover, hold on nails for a few seconds to dissolve polish, then wipe away in an outward sweeping motion to keep cuticles clean.
2.Wash your hands with warm water and luxurious, moisturizing soap or with a mild facial scrub (If your hands feel rough).
3.Pat hands dry with a soft towel.
4.Clip or cut nails to a length slightly longer than the one desired. I recommend a mid to short length oval nail. The oval nail is the most flattering and frankly, long nails are a fashion undertaking that only Morticia can pull off.
5.Use an emery board to file nails down to the desired length. Avoid metal files that can easily rip the nail. File from the outer corners towards the tip. Do not use a back and forth motion as this can make nails appear jagged.
6.Soak hands in a bowl with warm water and 1-2 tbsp. of lemon juice or olive oil to soften hands and cuticles. Let soak approximately 5-10 minutes. (This may be a good time to catch up on Dr. Phil.) Then clean with a nail brush.
7.Apply cuticle cream to the cuticles. Massage the entire hand with moisturizing lotion using the thumb of your other hand in circular motion. This will get the blood moving and warm the hands of those with poor circulation.
8.Grab your orange stick and gently push back cuticles. Clipping cuticles is now a no-no! Don't do it or you may risk an unsightly or painful infection.
9.Take a pair of nail scissors or small clippers and clip off any hang nails - DO NOT pull them off, again: infection ladies!
10.Use nail polish remover to wipe nails of any excess cream.
11.Choose your nail color. Dark colors are more dramatic but may have to be repainted and maintained every few days. They can also make nails appear shorter. Light colors are easier to maintain, and you will be able to match your wardrobe with ease.
12.When you begin to apply your polish, begin at the center of the nail with one stroke. Two more strokes on the side should do the trick. Only have enough polish on the brush for one line at a time.
13.All polishes are different, but allow at least one minute of setting time before applying your second coat.
14.Nails will dry in a couple of minutes, but to avoid unnecessary chipping and smudging, let your nails set for about 15 minutes before you start swinging a hammer again.

A fingernail or toenail can be injured by a blow to the nail or by closing the finger or toe in a door or drawer. This kind of trauma commonly results in blood under the nail, a condition called subungual hematoma. Nails also can be accidentally torn or split, or a splinter can get under the nail.
Repeated trauma to toenails, caused by ill-fitting shoes, can lead to deformities in the nails. The deformities may resemble a fungal infection; nails can be thickened or discolored and can lift away from the nail bed, which causes cosmetic concerns.
