In den späten 1990er Jahren verboten die Taliban das Tragen von Politur und bestraften einige Straftäter durch Amputation einer Fingerspitze. Der Import von Poliermitteln war erst im Juli 2001 verboten, was darauf hindeutet, dass Frauen in der Sicherheit ihrer Häuser immer noch lackierte Nägel trugen.
