There are so many reasons to take good care of yourself, especially during this time. Above all, it keeps you healthy. According to the CDC, “Appropriate hand hygiene includes diligently cleaning and trimming fingernails.”

 In addition, the CDC and other groups, like the World Health Organization, advise people to increase handwashing to prevent the spread of diseases like COVID-19. Therefore, sharing a step-by-step at-home manicure tutorial benefits everyone and supports the global cause to eradicate the disease.

The supplies are available at The Powder Room, the online store for the YouTuber whose channel has over 125 million views and counting.

First, Halloway introduces you to the story of “Jane,” a clueless client who mistakenly damages her nails- something Halloway has encountered countless times during her 25-year career as a nail technician. The tragic example is followed with the expert’s view on why nail care is important and advice on how to avoid similar mistakes. In addition, you will learn how to overcome common nail problems and keep your nails in tip-top shape.
