She hasn't had her nails painted since but keeps pointing out my painted toes and sort of asking for hers to be painted too (she's currently 28m) but won't sit still for me to put her hair in pigtails so polish is going to have to wait. Regular wear I probably won't allow until she is closer to 6-9yo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-264396 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 09:32:51 +0000 Mrsbells 264396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wasnt allowed to wear colored nail polish til I was about 11 or 12 I was only allowed to wear clear or glitter polish. I think I will do the same for my daughter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263490 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 19:05:19 +0000 anonysquire 263490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: Do it! Omg that will be so adorable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263413 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 17:08:52 +0000 cyndistar3 263413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started when she was one, she was never one to suck on her fingers or anything. I typically paint her toes more than her fingers though since she can never hold still and not touch anything long enough to not ruin it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263353 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 12:32:46 +0000 HLK208 263353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 3, when she stops putting her feet in her mouth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263350 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 12:22:50 +0000 PrincessBaby 263350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw baby-safe nail polish at the checkout counter at Buy Buy Baby and it made me wonder if I could paint 10 tiny toes for her newborn photos!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263323 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 11:50:57 +0000 chopsuey 263323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll probably start painting her toes in about a year or so? I tried the other day and she wouldn't stop moving them!<br /> Nails.. probably not until 4-6? Just for special occasions though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263319 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 11:48:13 +0000 Arden 263319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When she asks for it, and then I'll get organic chemical free polish. I asked to wear it at four, so I think there's a good chance it will be around that age. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263233 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 09:27:47 +0000 yoursilverlining 263233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whenever she wanted! When she's real little, I'll get some polish for her thats ok to nibble on, and once she graduates from the "everything in mouth" stage; onto real polish we go! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263211 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 09:00:56 +0000 autumnlove 263211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263190 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 08:37:15 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 263190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm like @Andrea special occasions only at 6-9. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263186 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 08:26:12 +0000 Andrea 263186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted 6-9. I see girls that age in the nail salon with their mommies getting polish put on and I think it's so cute. I would only allow it for special occasions, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-263163 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 07:20:10 +0000 anonysquire 263163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The second she is born lol. I am a polish addict, and my daughter can be my guinea pig. It's so cute on lil babies! I have painted my male cats toenails and they looked so cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-262664 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 14:18:04 +0000 heffalump 262664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have piggy paint for myself which is a natural nail polish because nail polish smell gives me migraines. I'll let LO start wearing it when she starts wanting to and can sit still long enough not to make a mess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-262659 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 14:12:52 +0000 Mrs. Pen 262659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I have a girl I will get the organic, chemical free nailpolish! I've been wanting some for myself anyhow. I love doing little girls' nails tho, I said 1-3 :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-262638 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 13:58:12 +0000 Honeybee 262638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare paints the kids' nails with magic markers to help them learn colors. I think DD started that when she was around a year...</p> <p>I don't know about real fingernail polish, though. I guess we'll cross that hurdle when she asks about it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-262637 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 13:56:43 +0000 runsyellowlites 262637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well.... I'm okay with it on her toe nails for now (obviously, since it was my pic lol) and I'd be okay with it on her finger nails when her putting her hands in her mouth all the time isn't a concern, so maybe pre-school age?.</p> <p>I can't wait till she asks her daddy to paint them! tehe </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-at-what-age-will-you-let-your-lo-wear-nail-polish#post-262631 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 13:54:02 +0000 Mrsbells 262631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I noticed in the feet picture thread that one of the feet has painted toe nails, and I just wondered what the general consensus was on the age you would let your LO wearnail polish or hands or feet </p>
