Just read the new year resolution thread where someone mentioned they have and love french manicures. I have (or had if Steph hasn't destroyed them all ) the little tape thingys that you put across your nails to paint them, but am wondering.... Should the edges of your nails be rounded or more square? Is this a fashion that changes? I prefer mine a bit more square.

I also saw a magazine ad for something the other day, and there was a picture of lovely french manicured toe nails! Wouldn't that mean that you would need to have long toe nails? I wish I could get this done or just a lovely pedicure before baby comes! I can barely reach my feet!

Last question, for those that get their manicures professionally done, how much does a french manicure typically cost, and how long does it last? I have NEVER EVER had a manicure or pedicure of any kind, but am thinking it would be nice to treat myself every now and again. Especially pedicures, I would love to have lovely toe nails all the time and pretty soft feet
