Nail art is a creative way to paint, decorate, enhance, and embellish the claws. It is a kind of artwork that can be done 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 take away the cuticles and soften the skin about the toenails.The exact origin of nail treatments is unclear, since it appears to have originated in various parts of the world around the same time. In ancient Egypt, from 5000 B.C. to 3000 B.C., women would dye their nails with henna to indicate sociable status and seductiveness. Women of the low class wore pastel and neutral shades, while the upper classes wore deep, bright shades. In Babylonia, 3200 B.C., men, not women, coated their claws with dark and inexperienced kohl, an ancient plastic. To prepare for war, warriors of Babylon spent hours having their claws prepared, scalp curled and got other similar beauty treatments. As in ancient Egypt, nail color indicated one's status, black for noblemen and green for the normal man. Around once, 3000 B.C., the first toenail polish started in ancient China. It had been made from beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, veggie dyes, and gum arabic. Chinese dipped their claws in this mixture for several hours or still left it on to dried out. Colors ranged from red to red, depending on mixture of the ingredients. During the Zhou Dynasty, 600 B.C., royalty used this simple nail polish with gold and silver dust on the nails showing their social status.
