Manicure Mondays: Start Your Week Beautifully – Nail Care and Style Inspiration
At Manicure Mondays, our mission is simple: to inspire you to make nail care a joyful and regular part of your self-care routine, starting every week with beautiful, healthy nails. We believe that well-manicured nails are not just an aesthetic detail, but a small act of self-love that can elevate your entire week. Whether you’re mastering basic nail care, experimenting with nail art trends, or seeking tips for healthy nail growth, Manicure Mondays will guide you with practical advice and endless inspiration.
Our Story
Manicure Mondays is the passion project of Monica Sharma and Amanda Lee, two friends who bonded over their shared love for manicures and the ritual of starting each week with polished nails. Their personal experience and shared philosophy – that even small acts of self-care can make a big difference – led them to create Manicure Mondays as a dedicated space for nail care enthusiasts of all levels.
Monica brings her practical knowledge of nail health and a focus on long-lasting, classic manicures to Manicure Mondays, while Amanda infuses her creative flair for nail art and a passion for experimenting with trends into every tutorial and inspiration post. Together, they’ve explored nail care techniques and styles from around the world (from salon treatments to at-home DIY) to curate a collection of tips and inspiration that makes beautiful nails accessible to everyone, every Monday and beyond.
Why we started Manicure Mondays
Unlike many beauty blogs that only touch on nails occasionally, Manicure Mondays is entirely dedicated to the art and practice of nail care. Yes, you’ll find stunning nail art inspiration and product recommendations, but you’ll also learn the why behind healthy nail habits and effective manicure techniques. Why is cuticle care important? How do you choose the right nail polish formula? When is it time to take a break from gel manicures? And how can incorporating regular nail care into your routine boost your confidence and well-being? By understanding these elements, you’ll unlock the secrets to consistently beautiful and healthy nails with Manicure Mondays.
We celebrate the beauty of ritual, self-care, and attention to detail. Manicure Mondays isn’t about achieving unattainable nail perfection; it’s about embracing a small, consistent act of self-care that brings joy and polish to your week. That’s why we encourage you to experiment, find your favorite nail styles, and above all, enjoy the simple pleasure of starting each week with a fresh, beautiful manicure.
