What age do you think a girl should be when she decides to wear nail polish?

i dont think there is a normal age for that. it all depeends if the mom or the dad is okay and going to buy them the polish. for me i have three daugthers and i started to buy them polish now that they are in their high school days. but seing them wearing it i didnt much like it on them. so i decided that they can only start to wear nail polish when they are already in college. i think it is more appropriate to see their nails colored when they are in college. just my view

i have a daughter, she's now 11 years old. when she was just 7, there are times i put nail polish on her nail fingers. but i seldom do it, coz i dont want her to wear nail polish everyday.

Pretty much when they start getting interest in it...I put it on my 3 year old niece and she loves it, she goes around and shows everyone how pretty her nails are, but if she wants to do it herself I would wait until she is about 7 or 8 where she can put it on properly without making a mess, even then watch them in case of an accidental spill, etc.

Hi cream97, I maybe old fashion but I think if I had a daughter I won't let her wear untill she is 15 years old and that is streching it. Tamara

Little girls wear nail polish here. I think there is no stigma attached to it in the US so any age is fine.

As long as they are old enough to keep their hands out of their mouth. I think it would be a good way to teach good nail hygeine to a young child. I don't like the idea of putting it on small babies that would have their fingers in their mouth though. They should be old enough to realize the responsibility somewhat that goes with it.

Nail polish is very toxic and shouldn't be used by small children. I would say age 16 or older would be acceptable.

hi cream I think that around thirteen or fourteen would be appropriate as years back even we started wearing nailpolish in high school.the kids may even be wearing nailpolish much'younger these days as its been years since I was in 'high school.

I don't consider nail polish to be like other make up. Many times when a little girl sees there mommy putting it on they want some too. Usually the mommy will put it on for them. I don't see any problem with it. I would say probably 6 or 7, as long as the mom is doing it for them. They should be around 11 before they try to do it themselves.

hehehe my little girl has nail polish.thats what we do when we are bored just polishing the nails.i know its not good and healthy but i will try to change this habbit.

I think there is no normal age for wearing polish,but,it is perhaps harful to the health!Be good care!

My 2 year old wears it, she's been wearing it since she was 1 1/2.

i really dont know i have seen kids here that are way too young to wear makeup and nail polish. my daughter asked my husband to buy her a nail polish but she's not using it yet. to be honest, i dont want her to wear any nail polish at all. it makes our nails turn to yellow

I have put nail polish on my daughter when she was about 5. My opinion is that nailpolish is quite different than something like make up. Now that she will not wear til she is about 16. In the stores you can buy nail polish made for young girls and that is what I have used or a very light color of nail polish.

Hello cream. I often see some young ladies wear nail polish. I think that it is better not to use nail polish as it is something chemical and is not good to the health though it makes ladies feel good and look beautiful.
