Nail fine art is an innovative way to color, decorate, enhance, and embellish the claws. It really is a type of artwork that can be done on toenails and fingernails, usually after manicures or pedicures. A manicure and a pedicure are beauty treatments that trim, shape, and polish the nail. Often these methods remove the cuticles and soften your skin around the fingernails.The exact origin of toenail treatments is unclear, since it appears to have originated in different parts of the world around the same time. In ancient Egypt, from 5000 B.C. to 3000 B.C., women would dye their fingernails or toenails with henna to indicate communal seductiveness and position. Women of the low class wore pastel and neutral shades, while the upper classes deep wore, bright shades. In Babylonia, 3200 B.C., men, not women, painted their nails with green and black colored kohl, an ancient plastic. To prepare for warfare, warriors of Babylon put in time having their claws prepared, mane got and curled other similar beauty treatments. As with ancient Egypt, nail color indicated one's status, black for noblemen and green for the common man. Around the same time, 3000 B.C., the first toenail polish originated in ancient China. It was created from beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, veggie dyes, and gum arabic. Chinese language dipped their fingernails or toenails in this concoction for several hours or kept it on to dried. Colors ranged from green to red, depending on the mixture of the ingredients. During the Zhou Dynasty, 600 B.C., royalty used this simple toe nail polish with gold and silver dust on the nails to show their social status.
