Things Your Toes Absolutely Hate

When was the last time you actually thought about your toes? Most people give them very little thought unless they are on show in your latest pair of sandals. Unfortunately, toes are abused more often than we realize, so here is a what they would like you to know.

1. They don't like the nails to be cut too short. This is a good way to encourage ingrown toenails. Be sure to cut them straight across.

2. Toenails don't like to be stained yellow. That is exactly what happens when you don't use a protective basecoat before applying a dark color.

3. If you are going to remove polish, don't use a tissue. Simply put, it just doesn't work and usually makes a mess. Try both and see for yourself.

4. They really don't like it when they are polished and then forgotten for weeks on end. Letting polished nails grow out along with the polish... looks horrible.

5. Unkempt cuticles... not pretty with sandals.

6. Pushing them into pointy toed shoes. They hate that the most!

7. Toes also don't like bunions. Your big toe is the target if it is rubbed against your shoe on a regular basis.

8. Plain and simple... toes don't like to be ignored. I know from experience that toes loved to be pampered. A good foot massage on a regular basis is a good way to get back into their good graces!
