You want a regular, natural manicure. No frills, just healthy nails.

The French manicure gives you a clear, pinkish or beige-colored paint with white tips. It's VEY popular since it looks so nice.

Hmmmm...never heard of an "American" manicure and I've always seen French manicures offered and they're the ones that are usually more expensive.

That sounds like what I'm looking for...I do like the buffed shine though...is that included usually? In a regular manicure?

Seriesly, when my nails are buffed, they don't seem to split as easily.

All of this is like a sudden revelation to me, having done nothing more to my nails than clip them. But Steve gave me a manicure set and I have been experimenting with it. I did the buffing business and noticed right away that my nails quit splitting and I didn't have anything pick on...

But I hated do it...what a bald-faced hassle.
