manicure in the nine days for shidduchim

Question:

Can a girl in shidduchim get a manicure during the nine days?

Answer:

This year, since Tisha B’av is on Sunday, it is permitted to cut nails during the nine days, as it is only an issue during the week that Tisha B’av occurs. For other years see https://dinonline.org/2020/07/27/girl-going-on-a-shidduch-is-a-manicure-allowed-during-the-week-of-tisha-bav/
