I am totally in love with my black polish manicure and pedicure! The only downfall is that when it chips it's really noticeable. That's why it's always good to buy some black polish (or even a black permanent marker...hehe) to do touch ups. My pedicures last a lot longer than my manicures, so I usually can just do the touch ups on my fingernails until I need to get a completely new pedicure (about 2 1/2 - 4 weeks later)...then I get a new manicure as well.
