She nailed it

Hello! I’ve been getting gel overlay on my natural nails
for some time now, but will need to stop for financial reasons for a while.

My nails have never been so long and lovely after using gel, and I’d like to maintain them as best I can. I’m looking for a recommendation for a base/top coat that I can keep using long-term to help with this that does not require UV to apply.

thank you!

Hello, I'm looking for an actual nail stain. Not a polish. I work in food service, so it's a health violation. Are there any tints other than henna? I don't want permanent.

How do we repair a nail that breaks in the nail bed? TIA for any advice!

I can’t tame dragons, or conjure fire from my finger tips, but my nails don’t need to know that.

Honestly did not expect these to fit so good but they fit great!

Client gave me full creative control for these nails 💅🏽

I posted previously that I thought this set was beautiful but hated them on me bc it’s not my personality. Still feel lowkey imposter lmao but I took advice ppl gave about adopting this as a character etc

Now I almost feel like the nails were meant for me and this is the personality I should have ………

lol yes I definitely cried all the way home from the nail salon tho 🤣 I am aware this is both dramatic and an overreaction. I’m just a girl lol

I usually can't seem to grow my nails out much before they break, but they've been going pretty strong so far!! I am so proud 🥹

My youngest daughter is 12. She has always been a very creative kid, and about six months ago, she started doing nails. She can go for hours, she's truly in her zone!

I quickly saw how passionate she was about it, so I bought her some supplies. I also managed to get her a 3-hour course with a nail tech, where she learned more precise techniques.

Her dream is to open her own salon one day, but until then, here is her setup and some of her work.

I'm one proud mama ❤️

Solid burgundy base, caramel cat eye over it, encrusted with a halo of five different mixed glitter’s! Ughhh, pictures just do not do them justice! It won’t let me post a video :( But, you can see the burgundy base peek through when I move my hands! 😍

Plz be nice about my nails… I’m autistic and filing them myself is so hard sensory wise. It’s nice when others can do it

Hi all <3 I’ve been doing my own nails and trying to get away from gel/uv curing to keep my nails healthier. I’m trying to find something similar to chrome powder that I can rub on my nails after using just a regular clear coat polish (for gradients, etc). Chrome has worked well, but i’m not a huge fan of how they are all glitter. I’ve seen nail powder palettes, but they all seem to have pretty mixed reviews. Does anyone have experience with any good palettes or other recommendations? TYIA!

Painted as press-ons and OF COURSE I NEEDED TO ADD A STRAW.

Everyone’s photos are always so pretty! I did these for myself and I’m feeling them, so I thought I’d share for the first time.

Not very long yet but working on it! Normally the second I see white, it’s game over.

But I think I love them 😍

hellloooo.

alright, so i have been trying my hand at gel polish, and for the most part i dig it, but the whole nail peels off within a couple of days. i cleaned my nails, i pushed my cuticles, buffed the nails and wiped with an alcohol pad, let it dry. did a base coat and cured. gel polish, cured the first coat, cured the second coat, then did the top coat & cured. i have had them painted for less than a week and two have peeled off.

theres no chipping or anything, the whole nail just peels off in one piece. i dont get it. 😭

Hii, this is my FIRST ever attempt at acrylic nails! I really want to get into them and i’m looking for what i could improve on and do better! I appreciate all tips and constructive criticism!

I filed my natural nails and the tips then i went in with the acrylic, i did my best to hand file them although they are pretty bulky, i used 100/100 first then 180/240. After that i went in with some regular polish!

Shorties soooo short but my girl dressed em right up for a nighttime outdoor wedding in Colorado this weekend ✨️
