its the waste of money really. They probably have another week in them.

Save your money and leave - red is a great colour, I have it on now and they're not Christmasy, just lovely red nails.

Can't post as outing. But I've had mine for over a month. Definitely need redoing but saving up. Will Google that keratin treatment 😊. So you aren't aibu as I have found a great treatment

I love a red nail all year round and yours are looking fine. I change my nails often as I get easily bored with them, but I did learn to do mine myself so I don't have the cost involved.

Go for it! After all, getting nails done at all is unnecessary. It's something you do because you enjoy it and you want a change.

I mean, at one end of the spectrum there are people like me who never do anything to their nails. At the other end might be people who go to a salon every single day to have their nails done different. It isn't like there's a cutoff point.

Same with clothes, hair, makeup colours. Change it whenever you want!

FYI I found some mini bottles of the keratin treatment on ebay for around £4. Going to give it a try on my damaged nails before plumping for a bigger bottle!

Distinctive design! I always have stuff to hide ha ha! Mumsnet is a tiny world 😉.
