What age can you take kid to get their nails done?
MUMS have sparked controversy after allowing their kids to get acrylic nails. But just how old do they have to be to be allowed to get them done legally.

I live on a cruise ship, rent and food are free even though I'm not crew – but there are 3 things I cannot do
IMAGINE if you could travel the world without having to worry about finding and covering accommodation and food. This is exactly what one woman, only known as the American Girl on TikTok, gets to experience thanks to her hubby who's a crew member. Advertisement 2 One lucky woman who travels the world for free revealed what she is not alloed to do on a cruise ship Credit: TIKTOK/@dutchworld_americangirl 2 As her husband works on the epic cruise ship as a ''staff chief engineer'', the woman gets to sail for free ''as wife on board'' Credit: TIKTOK/@dutchworld_americangirl As her husband works on the epic This, she recently listed, comes with a number of perks, such as However, whilst she lives there both as ''crew'' and a ''guest'' at the same time, there are a few things that are off-limit for the TikToker. One of these, she said in Advertisement READ MORE ON TRAVELLING ''I am not allowed to sit by a slot machine and play my heart out until I win. ''Because it would look a little weird if I as a wife of the staff chief engineer won a big jackpot.'' While she is allowed to enter the crew and the guest areas, the lucky woman is forced to wear a name badge in staff areas. ''So that they know that I am one of them and I am allowed down there because we don't want any guests down in the crew area.'' Advertisement Most read in Fabulous There are also a couple of other things she needs to abide by, such as leaving the ship after the guests have disembarked - this is usually an hour afterwards. As a guest, the TikToker - who posts under the username @ I 'live' on a cruise ship with my son & fiancé - the food's amazing, there's childcare & our laundry's done for free too ''I can use all those guest amenities.

Pros and cons of going on a cruise ship Whether you're considering a long holiday, working remotely or even living on board a cruise ship for a few months or years, here are the pros and cons from a former cruise shipper. Pros Travel the world, learn and experience new cultures Meet new people Don't have to think or worry about room cleaning, or food Cons Internet connection can be painfully slow and expensive Limited luggage allowance so have to wear the same clothes on rotation Having no control of where the ship would go next and the possibility of visiting the same ports Having the same onboard entertainment, on-demand movies, and little choice of TV channels No fresh newspapers or new books unless someone adds them to the library Relatively the same food week after week unless major menu changes occur seasonally. Occasional rough seas, bad weather and viral outbreaks while inboard. 'Soooo....I'm not seeing any negatives' The informative clip, which has racked up more than 5million views, has clearly sparked interest in this lifestyle for many. One singleton chuckled: ''Note to self: marry someone who works on a cruise ship.'' Advertisement Another begged: ''please refer me to a man on board.'' Someone else chimed in: ''I see no negatives here! ''I hate gambling and wouldn't want to deal with the crowds getting off the ship. everything else is a win for me!''
