    Default chipped toe nail polish

    I was wondering if anyone has the same problem when dancing. Here it goes, I love love love to paint my toes but when i go to work my big toe's nail polish gets chipped some how. So now when I go to the salon to get a gorgeous french pedicure the white chips off my toe the same day I get it done. Does anyone know how or why this may happen? I'm getting tired of repainting my big toe every nigh before work. Help! ???

    you may want to watch out for what you do with your floor work. this happens to me as well, and i know it is because when i get on my knees i tend to first put down the toe of my shoe for support. your toe may hit the ground just a tad and make the polish chip. hope this helps babe!

    You need Seche Vite Topcoat-tell your salon to use it-most of them carry it.Have them apply two coats. It keeps like crazy.

    Wow, I thought I was the only one with this problem! I just keep my nails very very short. It seems to help because the nails can't bend.

    I just wear a clear coat because chipped polish annoys me so much.

    Try a top coat by OPI polishes. I get my nails done with that polish and it rarely chips.

    you can get pink and white GEL on your toes which can NOT chip whatsoever. it looks like french manicure on your toes even if they are very short. GEL is always shiny and doesn't even need top coat to maintain its shine. it is impossible to chip because it is NOT polish. it will last weeks before needing to be redone, depending on how fast your nails grow.

    you must ask at the salon you go to for someone who does GEL...not a lot of manicurists do it...it's fairly new....

    I like glittery nail varnish, I mean the type where the base colour is clear and the actual glitter is coloured. Chipping of paint is a lot less noticeable and your feet will still stand out as they are sparkling like crazy!!!
