Cheap Mani/Pedis at Minna Nails

Minna Nails is my godsend. Normally, I don’t like to pay other people for my own personal cosmetic maintenance. I cut my own hair, I pluck my own eyebrows, I perform at-home Brazilians… you get the idea. I am an independent woman! However, there is one area of my body
