Can you have acrylic nails during pregnancy?

My wife wanted to get acrylics for a family wedding when she was six months pregnant. Her doctor said it's fine once in a while but advised going to a salon with good ventilation because the strong chemical smell can cause nausea.

Yes, you can, but as a mom, I would suggest being cautious. The main concern is the strong fumes in the salon and the risk of nail infections if the tools aren't sterilized. Keep it simple and safe for the baby.

I got acrylic nails done twice during my pregnancy for special occasions. I just made sure the salon was very clean, wore a mask to avoid inhaling the fumes, and had no issues at all.

Beta, in our days we always kept things natural during pregnancy to protect the baby. These strong chemical glues and smells are not very good to breathe in. Try massage with almond oil for shiny nails instead, it is much safer.

Beti, pregnancy me jitna chemical se door raho utna achha hai. Simple mehendi ya normal nail polish laga lo ghar pe. Baki agar bahut mann hai toh dactar didi se ek baar pooch ke hi karwana.
