Marylin Alvarez, right, prepares a client's nails in the salon at her home as her two dogs lounge on the floor, at the Bahía neighborhood of Havana, Cuba, Wednesday, May 18, 2022. During President Barack Obama's administration, Alvarez began transforming part of her house into a tiny cafe with the help of money sent by a cousin living in the U.S., but it fell apart when President Donald Trump's administration tightened the embargo and sharply restricted money transfers to Cuba in late 2020, which turned Alvarez to a less costly form of making money for her family – giving manicures.
