Taxotere and nails

I have what probably seems like a silly vain question. I've just started Taxotere for a second recurrence, and the nurse told me I might lose my fingernails and toenails. ACKKKK! This upsets me more than losing my hair. LOL. One of my friends said she soaked her nails in ice chips during the infusion, and she did not lose them. Any thoughts to this? I also have gels, which are like acrylic nails. Should I have them taken off? Vanity, vanity.
