Those for whom the wearing of polish may also pose challenges (genderqueer, genderfluid, androgyne, trans women, etc.) are likewise welcome.

Rules

1.Be kind and supportive; don't be a jerk or a creep

Comments or titles that degrade, discourage, or are needlessly hurtful will be removed. If you disagree with something, remember, you don't need to comment or react. Respect others experiences/expression.

Constructive criticism is welcomed, but be kind with your wording. (e.g. “Your polish is flooding your cuticles, a clean up brush could fix that!”).

Comments or titles that are overly sexual, suggestive, creepy, dehumanizing, or ask to PM, are NOT welcome and won't be tolerated.

Final ruling is up to mod discretion

2.No NSFW/Fetish content

We're SFW community that's open to members of all ages.

No pornography or sexual content. No suggestive titles, comments, poses, or camera angles. Please keep any bare-leg photos below the knee.

Final ruling is up to mod discretion

3.No low effort posts/photos

Photos that are not polish oriented in manicure/pedicure photos, or in action/real life shots, will be removed. This rule is geared towards posts that are showcasing things other than polish (i.e. shoes, clothing items, jewelry, etc.) Remember to post in the correlating subreddit.

This will be up to mod discretion

4.No self promotion/advertising

Do NOT link directly to other social media's/platform when posting, or automatically comment it on your posts.

Do NOT provide your social media usernames and ask users to “PM/DM/HMU”. This is not the place for dating/hookups, or advertising other platforms. There are other subs dedicated to that, we ask that you post in the correlating subreddit.

Do NOT post here about your company or product - at all. If you're a company, consider taking out a Reddit Ad.

5.No flooding the sub (posts/comments)

1 post per polish color/nail look will be allowed per day, to cut sub flooding/spam. If you have multiple differing looks/colors to post in a single day, feel free to share them with the subreddit. Separate posts for manicures and pedicures will be accepted and allowed and can be shared on the same day, the primary focus on those posts has to be either the manicure or pedicure.

If you want to share multiple photos/angles of the same look/polish, consider compiling an album on a photo hosting site (i.e. Imgur, etc.) and post that link, or provide a link in your comment section on the original relating post. Or, consider posting a collage that showcases the different angles/photos you wish to share.

6.Content MUST relate to nails and/or polish

This sub is about nails, nail care, nail issues, nail polish, nail inspiration, and more. All things relating are welcome (e.g. nail memes, hauls, collections, etc.).

Discussion about wearing nail polish as a male (male identifying, nonbinary, FTM, MTF, gender fluid, androgynous etc.) is very welcome.

Discussing how your sexual orientation relates to your polish hobby or nail care interest is also welcome. We don't want to stifle discussions about the “taboo” of men wearing polish in society.

7.Polish and Product lists

Providing polishes and products used is strongly encouraged, however it is not a requirement.

Try to help out others who inquire about a color or product, if possible.
