Many of us have experienced the agony of painstakingly painting our own nails, only to see our works of art slowly chipping away to naught within the next few days. Gelish nails last longer than regular manicures, but many of us budget babes are unwilling to part with an average of $40 just to dress our nails up.
We gotchu, girlfriends – you don’t have to suffer from constantly chipped nail polish, or fork out extravagant prices for gel nails any longer. These nail salons will adorn your digits with the manis and pedis you’ve been longing for, without draining your wallet dry.
