I'm doing my first manicure at home today. Should I cut my nails first or remove the polish first?
gpt
Remove the polish first so that you have a clear guide for cutting your nails.
human
Is it necessary to file my nails after cutting?
gpt
Yes. Filing your nails after cutting ensures your nails have no sharp or ragged edges. A smooth nail base is needed for polishing.
human
What about base coats - do I need to apply one before polishing my nails?
gpt
Yes. Applying a base coat prevents the polish from staining your nails and serves as a layer of protection between the polish and your nail.
