History of Nail Care
Nowadays, going to the nail salon is
considered as treating yourself. It’s part
of a self-care routine for some people,
and some even enjoy going to the nail
salon with their friends. But did you know
that caring for your nails goes way back?
It’s actually challenging to determine
exactly when nail treatments started in
history. This is because it seems like it
originated from different parts of the
world all at the same time.
Nail Care in the Ancient World
According to an article from a well-known
lifestyle magazine, nail care can be
traced as far back as the time of the
ancient Babylonian. Men from ancient
Babylonia were known to manicure and
color their nails using kohl, ( Kohl (Arabic:
‫ ُكحْ ل‬, romanized: kuḥl), kajal or kajol is an
ancient eye cosmetic, traditionally made
by grinding stibnite (Sb2S3) for use
similar to that of charcoal in mascara. )
which is a powder that has been used
since the ancient times for cosmetic
purposes. Ancient Babylonian men would
wear different colors on their nails to
symbolize the societal class where they
belong. Those who were in the upper
part of society wore black while those at
the bottom wore green.
Fast forward to a few thousand years
during the glory days of ancient Egypt,
and we have the most famous figures
during this time, and Queen Nefertiti.
They are known as the pioneers of living
lavishly and surrounded by all kinds of
luxuries.
Cleopatra and Nefertiti are also known to
have popularized nail by rubbing their
hands in lush oils and putting color on
their nails using henna. Both ladies
believed that taking care of your nails is a
reflection of your wealth and status in
society. They also believed that the
bolder the color, the more power you
had. In fact, Cleopatra’s known favorite
color is a blood-red hue while Nefertiti
leans towards ruby.
How about nail care in China? During the
Ming Dynasty, both the female and male
members had perfectly manicured nails.
They stood out from everybody else by
having talon-like nails, which also has a
tint to it. To do this, they used a mixture
of egg whites, wax, vegetable dyes, and
other materials to create a wide range of
colors.
Nail Care in the 19th Century
Thanks to drastic social and
technological advancements in history,
new tools have been developed
specifically for nail care. Of course, these
are still not close to what you usually see
at your favorite nail salon, but it’s almost
similar. In Europe back in 1830, a
podiatrist or a foot doctor named Dr. Sitts
invented a wooden manicure tool. This
tool was actually an adaptation of a
dental tool for nail care purposes.
After a few years, his legacy was
continued on by his niece, who invented
a nail care line specifically for women of
any social class. This new product
eventually made its way to the United
States nail salons.
Nail Care in 20th Century
In 1907, the first liquid nail polish was
invented, but it was colorless. This all
changed during the 1920s when the
automobile industry was booming.
Women started to color their nails using
high-gloss car paint. Due to its popularity
together with advancements in
technology, Revlon finally launched the
first-ever polish that used pigments
instead of dyes. This was in 1932, and it
was also a big factor that such a product
was available in drug stores. The 1930s
also saw the popularity of flappers and
silver screen actresses, which resulted in
the popularity of the half-moon technique
as well as the French manicure.
When the colorful 1970s came in, people
saw the rise of artificial nails. These
looked exactly like real nails and are
usually long. Artificial nails are popularly
worn by rich people. With more and more
tools and technologies being available,
nail salons started to offer a wider range
of manicure services.
Nail Care in Present Times
Did you know that pedicure or caring for
your feet and toenails only became
popular during the beginning of the 21st
century? This led to the blossoming of
the nail care industry and resulted in the
doubling of nail salons in the U.S. in the
year 2000. Today, each salon offers an
array of services. Whether its nail
extensions, nail art, 3D nails or putting
different gems on your nails check if your
 favorite nail salon offers these types of
services.
