Nail art is a creative way to paint, decorate, enhance, and embellish the nails. It is a kind of artwork that you can do on fingernails and toenails, 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 round the fingernails or toenails.The exact source of toenail treatments is unclear, since it appears to have originated in various parts of the global world around the same time. In ancient Egypt, from 5000 B.C. to 3000 B.C., women would dye their fingernails with henna to point cultural status and seductiveness. Women of the low class wore pastel and neutral shades, as the upper classes wore deep, bright shades. In Babylonia, 3200 B.C., men, not women, colored their toenails with green and black colored kohl, an ancient plastic. To prepare for war, warriors of Babylon put in hours having their fingernails or toenails prepared, locks acquired and curled other similar beauty treatments. Just as 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 nail polish started in ancient China. It had been created from beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, veggie dyes, and gum arabic. Chinese dipped their claws in this mixture for several hours or left it on to dry out. Colors ranged from red to red, with respect to the mixture of the ingredients. Through the Zhou Dynasty, 600 B.C., royalty used this simple toenail polish with gold and silver dust on the nails to show their social position.
