Don’t be like Paula Abdul and go whining to legislators about an infection you got while getting a manicure. If you are that concerned, and you should be, bring your own set of tools. I know most places “clean” their tool, if by clean you mean putting them in a tupperware box marked “clean”. It is worth the money and your fingers and toes to get the Cutie Kit for $34.99. It comes with all the goodies you’ll need – cuticle nipper, cuticle pusher, nail clipper, nail buffer, nail file, toe separator and pumice sponge. And you should of course always bring a pair of flip flops to walk out of there without ruining your new pretty toes!
