Manicure

 This morning I've had my first ever professional manicure. I had actually decided to see if the blisteringly expensive hair salon that is not too far from my house could fit me in for a cut and blow dry today. When I got there it was closed so I popped into the beauty salon next door to ask what time it opened.  Apparently they only seem to open for haircuts that are booked in advance.  I decided to spend some of the money that I saved on a manicure. Luckily the owner of the beauty salon had a free spot this morning so I popped back and indulged in a lovely hand massage and manicure. It was such a treat and though it won't be a regular thing I'll definitely have another in the future.

  1. I thought i was the only woman on Earth who has not been into a nail salon! You have inspired me, perhaps I will treat myself. I've stopped dying my hair so I can justify the cost in that way.

    1. I stopped dying my hair a few years ago. I've decided to treat myself once in a while to a beauty treatment. The only money I really spend is on the garden so I am having a but of a splurge. I've booked an eyebrow wax and tint next week. Never had my brows tinted before.

  3. I've never had one and don't want one either lol. The thought of someone messing with my nails just gives me the shudders. I am glad you enjoyed it!

    1. I've always balked at the cost. Now I intend to treat myself to something nice every month.
