Toe Be or Not Toe Be

Rockers do it. Athletes do it. Even the guy in the next cubicle might do it. We're talking men wearing nail color on their toes -- and you'd be surprised at how popular the trend is. Think if it as "ink" for your toes, guys -- choose from super-bright shades (including blue, green, yellow) and dark tones, especially black (OPI Black Onyx Nail Lacquer is a favorite among the male-nail set). Plus, if your toenails could use a little improvement, Feet by OPI offers Nail Strengthener in Black -- not only does it look hot, it's formulated with liquid nylon to strengthen nails and help them look their best. Maybe it's just one toe, maybe all ten - but isn't it time you strutted your stuff?

I am glad you brought this up

I did paint my toes once red (best color for my wife's toes) and it looked kinda silly. I next did the French manicure thing for a more natural look but it still did not convey they the look I was going for. My Son never even said a word when I walked around the house with red toes.

I just came back from a visit to my podiatrist. I asked about painted toenails, and the response was an unequivocal:"We have a supply of remover here, and we take all that off before we do anything else."

Unfortunaterly, I have to visit the podiatrist every 3 months, so that will limit my toenail polishing.

Hugs,

Lydia

Three months is long enough for keeping polish on before changing ;)

Red on the toes really isn't my thing either.

Right now they are OPI's Tutti Frutti Tonga.

I wonder why I'm the only guy at the gym with painted toe nails?

I have worn eithr Bright Red or Pink toe nail polish for overa year now. I even go out wearing open toe sandals. No one seems to notice or care that my toes are polished. Even my ultra-religious sister even knows I wear toe nail polish. LOL

Men wearing toe nail polish has even been on TV shows like, "Dirty Jobs" and etc.

Mine are a pale lavender right now. Prior to that it was French, and for the winter and holidays it was bright red. :)

Mine are sparkly gold :) . But it's all got to come off tomorrow as the grand-children will be here and one of them likes playing with our feet - bless. Working away next week so the toes get done again on Sunday night.
