Manicure on Tisha B'Av

Question

Is it permissible for a beautician to do nails on Tisha B'Av after midday for clients who have an event the next day? [She can do it after the fast ends, but it is more convenient for her on Tisha B'Av].

Answer

On Tisha B'Av itself, it is forbidden; it is only permitted after the fast ends.
