Your Nail Salon/Manicure Routine

[Scorpihoe]

I am still obsessed with your ring

Thank you 🥹🥹 I will say “ring shrinkage” is a real thing though my friends always ask me what advice I have for picking an engagement ring and I always say “go bigger than you originally think you want because your diamond will magically start to shrink“

I think I’m losing my mind lol, can someone else confirm?!

I'm going to be doing my nails later on today. Should I do them aqua blue or black? Also sparkles or no sparkles?

My current set 🩵 BIAB has really made my natural nails so strong and long!

my hand looks dark because I had fake tan on that I was waiting to wash off

I adore these! I love a coloured tip to add fun but keep it subtle.

Guys, any ideas for wedding nails? My hen next week and I'm wearing a white dress but fancy bright red nails and toes.

The wedding is in September and I am wearing a white dress. I really like a French tip with a milky base but I also just like the milky colour all over. Any suggestions for classic and timeless but with a twist?

A big switch up from the red nails

Contemplating getting nail art (normally I'm a plain colour kinda girl) but just wondering where to get some inspiration for design from? The girl who's doing them has some on her insta, but nothing that has really jumped out at me so wanted to see if i can find something that I really like the look of but just don't really know where to look. Any advice?

I usually look on Pinterest or on a couple of Instagram nail arts account, my current favourites for inspo:

my last two at home gel manicures! the pink lasted almost three weeks but once again defeated by the veg peeler. blue has been on for a week and is looking a bit worse for wear around the cuticle this time, i find it's hit or miss with how they wear even though the nail prep is exactly the same.

my skin is cool toned (and obvs v pale) but i don't think the blue suits me that well? next colour i'll try for more contrast and warmer tone and see if that makes a difference bc i think the pink works. tried my best to show what the colours actually look like irl too

Hi all! New to this thread and loving it, will be great for some inspo!
I used to have exclusively red nails but the last year has been all nudes. I have started BIAB and gone back to red, obsessed! Don’t know why I stopped!

Hi everyone! I've only just come across this thread. I'm obsessed with nails, I do my own extensions (either gel x with fills from biab but recently I've been using dip and then gel on top) and I've been practicing my nail art recently. I wanted to share my most recent set which I'm super happy with!

4th round of BIAB. They grew super long, had to get them cut back this time around.

Just discovered Mylee's fix and flash. My gels whether polygel or BIAB never last long but I get a good 3 or 4 weeks out of these without breaking or lifting. Easy to infill with BIAB as well. I was sceptical that they would stay on as it was just a thin coat of the cured adhesive and I am the clumsiest person ever (who else pings a nail off and watches it land in the toilet as you pulls your jeans up by the belt loops?!) But I've been really impressed. It could be there's a lot more flex in them and that means they are less brittle, but whatever the reason, I'm continuing with them.

Girl, sorry in advance if I’ve asked similar question previously - I keep getting talked into having gel nails!

Sooo, gel nails don’t last on me, I also don’t like the way they end up ‘soft’, but I like my nails short.

Would I be better with BIAB or an acrylic overlay or something? - I’m also unsure of what to ask for.

Thanks so much!
