Rec'd on 💅 how do y’all choose your nail colour

i used to do a lot of interesting designs, not matching my nails to my clothes, but just picking a cool design as a stand-alone unit but i got tired of doing all these designs and wasting my money (in ukraine people are literally obsessed with nails, and it began to feel like a socially forced), and i've been with natural nails for a year now

making your own press on nails

it’s fun! it’s an artsy, creative outlet; you get to create your own designs and stare at them once you wear them. feels so satisfying 🫶🏼 now that i have more nail supplies, i feel like i’m able to make nail designs that i actually want to wear without booking an appt or trying to buy press ons in store/online. it’s a hobby that i can see myself continuing.

Press-on nails

Recently i decided to try press-ons as a way to protect my nails from myself and manage the impulse to pick (#bfrbgang), but didnt know i would be having sooo much fun getting in touch with a sense of glamour and experimenting with femininity in a way i hadn’t before :)

DOING YOUR OWN NAILS AT HOME

I’ve been doing my own nails for over a year now and I love it! I started off with the same colors I used to get all the time at the salon and once I got the hang of it branched out. Now that I’ve been doing it long enough I’m buying a nicer drill, light, storage, and more gels. I also just started swatching some colors today like my own little nail salon lol. I’ve saved SO much money doing this, the thought of how much I spent in just a year on nails before is crazy now. With how cheap doing my own nails has become I’ve also been more comfortable trying new colors all the time now that it’s not so expensive if I end up hating a color lol. My nails also last SO much longer. I can basically go 3 weeks with no chips most of the time (unless I want to change the color sooner) and I work with my hands a lot and do a lot of cooking and dishes. The only worry there is the grow out lol. Just make sure you get a light that plugs into the wall and ensure it’s strong enough to cure gel, always clean gel up off of you if you get it on yourself (allergies don’t happen instantaneously like tik tok will have you believe, but they can develop over time with overexposure), and practice makes perfect!
