Nail fine art is a creative way to paint, decorate, enhance, and embellish the nails. It is a kind of artwork that can be done on toenails and fingernails, after manicures or pedicures usually. A manicure and a pedicure are beauty treatments that trim, shape, and polish the nail. Usually the cuticles are removed by these methods and soften the skin around the toenails.The exact origins of nail treatments is unclear, since it appears to have originated in different 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 indicate communal status and seductiveness. Women of the lower class wore pastel and neutral shades, as the upper classes wore deep, bright shades. In Babylonia, 3200 B.C., men, not women, decorated their toenails with green and black colored kohl, an ancient plastic. To get ready for war, warriors of Babylon put in time having their nails prepared, hair 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 toenail polish originated in ancient China. It was created from beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, veg dyes, and gum arabic. Chinese dipped their claws in this combination for several hours or left it on to dried up. Colors ranged from pink to red, depending on the combination of the ingredients. Through the Zhou Dynasty, 600 B.C., royalty used this simple nail polish with silver and gold dust on their nails to show their social position.
