Give GG Manicures
A fresh manicure is the perfect way to connect, chat, and bring a smile to a senior's day! Keep your nail sessions safe, hygienic, and relaxing with these essential rules and tips from GG National.
The Golden Rules (Safety First!)
- Wash Up: Always wash or sanitize your hands immediately before and after giving a manicure.
- Consent First: Always ask a senior if they would actually like a manicure before you begin your session.
- No Sharp Tools: Never use nail clippers, cuticle pushers, or any other sharp metal tools. Stick strictly to nail files and polish!
GG National Tips & Tricks
The VIP Treatment: Apply a little hand moisturizer and ask the senior if they would like a relaxing hand massage before you paint.
- Prep the Canvas: Always apply a base coat before your colored polish to protect the nail. (Pro-tip: If you don't have a base coat, using a top coat works just as well!)
- One File, One Senior: Nail files are strictly single-use only to keep things hygienic. Once you finish, either toss the file in the trash or gift it to the senior to keep!
