Philadelphia is going green, and it's not just the jerseys. As excitement for Super Bowl 59 ramps up, local businesses are taking advantage and making sure all Birds fans are ready for Sunday.
Rachael Thomas, who works out of Di’s Color Crazy Salon in South Philadelphia, posted her unique Eagles-themed nail designs to social media. She tells NBC10 she’s been getting non-stop interest ever since.
“I’ve had non-stop inquiries, and I’ve booked so many appointments this week just for Super Bowl nails,” said Thomas. “Normally I would be doing Valentine’s nails right now. No hearts…all footballs.”
