I'll trade your aching hands and wrists for my empty wallet lol! Angie you could always try using wrist braces to help stabilize your wrists, and loosening your grip..We all know that the holiday season in the salon can be killer on our hands.

Everybody wants in on that Mon, Tue,?or Wed. By Wed I am so done doing nails. It seems?that everyone breaks nails right before holidays. They can go all year without breaking a nail, but?when I don't have time to go to the bathroom?or?eat lunch is when they are going to call wanting a nail fixed.?The nicest clients can get so demanding around the holidays. I really?hate to see?the holidays come. I am a scroodge I know. I should be grateful for the business. I love doing nails except at the holidays.?If I were a client who wore nails all year I certainly would want them to look the best at holidays so I do understand. It just sucks for us the nailtech, who can only do so much in?one day. On Wed it even hurt to take polish off. My wrists are burning in the center and numb around the perimeter. My fingers are swollen and?stiff. My calluses are sore on my fingers. It hurts to hold my nippers and my drill. I have little?knots on my arms between my wrists and elbow. I have shooting pains going up my arms. I don't know?how to prevent getting your wrists in this?kind of shape. For all of you nailtechs that are not yet here, do yourself a favor and find out how to protect your hands and wrists. ?
