Boys, or rather men, started wearing nail polish as far back as 3500 BC.
Historical Context of Men Wearing Nail Polish
According to historical evidence, men have been adorning their nails for millennia:
- Babylonian warriors, around 3500 BC, used nail polish as part of their pre-battle ritual. This shows that nail polish wasn't always a gendered item.
Essentially, the practice of men wearing nail polish is not new; it is ancient.
