I am almost 35 weeks pregnant, is it safe to get gel nails done?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: You can get a manicure of any kind during pregnancy. Shellac/gel and regular nail polish should not have any risks to your pregnancy. If the fumes bother you, sit in a well ventilated area during your manicure.
