So, my nephew is coming out to Colorado to get married. My wife has been setting up all the stuff for the wedding. I looked at her notes and it said " a nice manicure for Bob " (not real name). Granted its his wedding, but a manicure ? I don't no of any men who get these. can't you just clip your nails? seems kinda girly to me. My wife got POed when I wrote " and a new pair of pink panties " on her notes.

Your thoughts: should men get manicures?

 

Lets see, Manicure or spend the money on something for the truck?

I think you see where I am going with this..........

 

I can see a shave and a haircut, but a manicure? Come on! If he goes through with that, he may as well have his toes done also. Might as well get the toe "waxing" done while he's there. As a good uncle, you might want to let him know on the down low what the girls have planned for him!

 

I have gotten a manicure before, one time the wife was getting one, and asked me to join her while we were in the mall. I did... not the worst experience in my life, but not something I'll do on my own accord.

I think that any guy that gets one on a regular basis either is a little sweet, or makes big money, and his image is that important to him.

 

I personally wouldn't pay for a manicure or anything similar, but I admit that years ago when my wife worked as a manicurist I loved when she'd give me a manicure and/or Pedicure. Had nothing to do with the looks or anything, it had to do with getting your fingers/hand/toes/feet massaged.

 

Glad I'm not the only one... scared I'd get drummed out.

 

Oh trust me you're still drummed out...I'm a Cali Boy not in the Marines, it's expected.

 

No way Jose, but, I've been called a redneck before.

 

At least they call it a MANicure. You can use that to your advantage a bit. I consider a manicure using my pocket knife to clean the grease out from the underside of my nails after I'm done working on the truck.

 

Wont pay for one, and dont have to. Thats what girlfriends and wives are for. My girl takes care of me.

 

Manicure?.....

 

MY god, only three fingers!

 

Sumo,I'm surprised at you...those are Ed's toes.

 

A real man uses a bench grinder to do his nails.

 

He gets a discount!

I had a manicure/pedicure free with a vacation package last year. It wasn't bad, I thought the lady's arm was going to fall off with all the sanding to get the calluses off my hands and feet. It stayed clean and smooth for about a week but yea, not something I would pay to get done.
