Question
Is it permissible to immerse with gel nail polish? If the woman has completely removed the polish, is she allowed to immerse with long nails to apply new gel polish the next day? Or is it mandatory to cut the nails down to the connection point?
Answer
Shalom u'vracha
Leaving nails untrimmed during immersion is not ideal.
