I love all these ideas!!! Thank you bunches, friend! ❤️

I’ve been going to nail salons for years and they get more expensive every time and my money is getting slimmer and slimmer. I’ve been talking to friends and relatives and they all say that it is so easy to do your own but I kept coming up with reasons not to try it out. I went and had my daughter do mine the other day and after watching her plus watching all the salon people do it I finally convinced my self to try it out, so I ordered my first small kit this morning and decided to start watching some KZread tutorials. This video was real helpful and informative, this is the length and everything about how I wear my nails. Thank you so much for helping me to step out of my comfort zone. Love the colors and the video. You have a new subscriber.

I do have another question… one thing i didn’t try to avoid cracking and chipping was the gel liquids with dip powder. Do you know if that might make a difference? Is it any faster? Yes, gel art on short nails. I also have some blooming gel that I’m a little at a loss for how to get cool looks with.

Hey weirdos? Strange welcome…

It’s comes from the quote “weirdness is simply a side effect of being awesome”. I started calling my followers that bc of how incredibly awesome they are! 🫶🏻
