Coronavirus pandemic has made us resort to self-quarantine and socially distance ourself from other people. It is good for us because anything RN is better than catching the deadly contagious virus. Most places across globe are observing a lockdown. Right from except for the places related to the essential commodities like supermarkets, pharmacies, health shops, etc. everything else is closed. Same with the nail salons or nail bars. At this point in time nail salons can be a place that can fuel the spread of the virus.

However, using the quarantine period women on Twitter have taken matters in their hands and are doing their manicures for themselves.  Instead of waiting for the salons to re-open, people are treating out manicures at home and have given us some amazing results. Check out some of the tweets from women who are trying to do their own manicures at home:
