My daughter satays with my husband whenever I go do my nails but I was thinking if it’d be possible to just bring her with which will give him some time to work on his assignments. My salon doesn’t have any strong chemicals or acetone smell so I’m not worried about that. I recently had to take her with to have my car serviced and that was just over an hour in her stroller in the lobby but I was able to give her snacks and entertain her but I obvi won’t have my hands available during a nail appt. Anyone take their babies with to nail salons?

I've taken mine. I just book it so she's asleep in the stroller.

I took mine to a hair appointment when she was much smaller and I knew she’d sleep. I took her to my dental appointment last week but it was just a cleaning and much quicker than a nail appointment.
My husband is literally on his way home now to stay with her while I go to my nail appointment. I wouldn’t risk it cause your hands aren’t available unless you *know* she’ll sleep. But I also like to have that time for myself and not feel stressed she’s gonna wake up or need constant attention. But if you think she’ll be fine you could try it maybe on a pedicure first?

I did and it was great until it wasn’t he wouldn’t stop crying it made everyone stressed and made the nail lady rush which ended up being a really poor manicure. I’d bring him for a pedicure but not a manicure
