From Curiosity to Craft: How i learned to do Nail Extensions at Home.💅

Mastering nail extensions at home has been one of the most fulfilling and transformative experiences in my beauty journey. It all began when I enrolled in a cosmetology course in my hometown. My focus was on makeup, hair, and skincare, but I often observed other students practicing nail extensions. One day, they asked me to be their model. They only applied extensions on one hand, but that was all it took to spark my interest – I loved how polished and sophisticated my nails looked, and I knew I wanted to learn this art myself.

However, the cost of professional nail extension classes was beyond my budget. Determined to learn anyway, I turned to online resources and discovered a wealth of information. YouTube quickly became my primary teacher, offering tutorials from skilled nail artists. Pinterest provided endless inspiration, while Instagram Reels showcased creative tips and trending designs. Although TikTok was not available in India, these platforms offered me all I needed to start learning the basics of nail extensions and nail art.

Starting with Nail Art Basics I began by focusing on nail art as my starting point. Not only did it require minimal materials, but it was also a great way to develop steady hands, creativity, and an eye for detail. From color combinations to pattern designs, nail art helped me practice brush control and become familiar with nail anatomy. I enjoyed experimenting with small designs, which provided the perfect foundation before moving on to more advanced techniques.

Investing in Extension Supplies After saving up for a while, I finally purchased a beginner’s nail extension kit, which included nail tips, gel polish, acrylic powder, and other essential tools. I started with stick-on and press-on nails, practicing the process of application, shaping, and finishing. Each attempt taught me more about the importance of precision and patience, as even the smallest adjustments could make a huge difference. Practicing these steps gave me confidence and helped me build a steady foundation before I moved on to more complex nail extensions.

Advanced Training: Seeking Professional Guidance While online resources were excellent, I realized that certain advanced techniques—like acrylic overlays, gel extensions, and sculpting—were difficult to perfect without hands-on guidance. To improve, I reached out to a family member who had professional experience in nail artistry. Although she lived far away, I arranged a weekend visit and spent three days under her instruction. During this time, she taught me key techniques like sculpting, creating durable extensions, and layering for strength and style. This experience was a game-changer, as it allowed me to correct mistakes I didn’t even realize I was making and enhanced my skill level tremendously.

Perfecting the Craft After returning home, I practiced diligently, dedicating time each week to improve. I started creating full sets, experimenting with techniques like ombré fades, encapsulated glitter, and 3D accents. I joined online communities, where fellow nail enthusiasts shared tips, and found that feedback from other learners greatly boosted my confidence and skill. Gradually, my creations became more polished, and I could see the difference my persistence made with each set.

Final Thoughts Learning nail extensions at home has not only been a creative outlet but also a testament to the power of self-directed learning. What started as a curiosity has become a rewarding skill that brings beauty and joy to others. If you’re passionate about nail artistry, remember that with dedication, patience, and the right resources, you can achieve stunning results without stepping into a professional classroom. Whether it’s a new design or perfecting a technique, the journey is as enjoyable as the destination.

Some sets i did when i started learning.😁

Then i got a little better. 🤭

And this the latest set i did for my cousin on her birthday.💟

[princessbrunette]

hai!!!! just curious, because ik everyone kinda has their own definitions when it comes to different kinds of readers, what do you describe puppy/kitty/bunny/deer!reader as? what makes them them?

anyway, luv ya n all that ya do- ,,^-^,,

ooo fun question !! ໒꒰ྀིᵔ ³ ᵔ ꒱ྀིა

BUNNY:

she was born for the soft life. a highly organised system in her closet, and a whole separate closet just for shoes. she’s not bratty, she doesn’t even know what being bratty is or how to do it, but there are of course times she starts thumping her foot, whining and pulling at rafes clothes. this petulant behaviour is often solved by a stern look, a tap on the cheek or a reach under the skirt to tug at her fluffy bunny butt plug. her nose twitches when she’s upset, and has a big toothy grin when she’s happy. she leaves the glitter from her body all over rafe’s clothes, mink eyelash extensions on the sink, tubes of lipgloss in her boyfriends pockets. she’s an r&b / rap girl lover to her core, and a day isn’t complete without bouncing around her room to flo milli or saweetie. bunny doesn’t have an ounce of shame in her body— whether that’s from her skirt riding up in public (as to which rafe has to irritably tug it down again) to pawing at him, begging him for dick infront of his friends. luckily, rafe doesn’t have much shame either.

KITTY:

be careful, she bites! no really, she does — cross her and she’s squinting at you, sinking her teeth into an arm until you yelp. according to jj, anyway. she’s odd, and that’s what he likes about her— collecting horror movie memorabilia and trinkets from the thrift store she thinks might be ‘haunted’. she keeps her nails long, stiletto shaped even — whether that’s from scraping her money together for acrylics or growing them out herself. she has the craziest oral fixation, always needing something to lick, suck or chew on— that something often being her boyfriend jj. despite the black liner in her waterline, she is still a spoilt little priss who needs her pink ribbons tied round anything and everything, requiring the fluffiest of blankets and pillows for her daily nap. unlike bunny, she does work — having a little gig as a bartender/waitress at a beachside restaurant. she gets super huffy and puffy, not enjoying having to speak to so many people — but her boyfriend gaining a linecook job at the same joint makes things better. she’s deftones biggest fan, even owning a pair of panties with their album cover on the front. jj loves seeing them on the floor of his room.

PUPPY:

she’s playful, clingy, and ever so whiny. shes the most energetic of the bunch, firing off into a million topics at once, talking and talking until john b has to interrupt her to tell her to breathe or she will pass out. her signature is her big doe eyes, used as a weapon ready to fire at all times on anyone who dares to upset her. she’s not spoilt, infact she’s very humble and fairly docile unless provoked— she just requires oodles of attention and affection, pats on the head and praise are her love language! she works at the local pet store, often coming home with hilarious stories about handling animals, john b plucking hay out of her hair as she tells them. she has the energy to keep up with all the animals, running around until she arrives home to john b and passes out on his lap for a quick nap before bursting into a fit of energy once more. pup is never seen without her walkman, and can often be found dancing around the empty chateau with 80s pop blaring in her ears, or knocked out with the audio tapes john b had recorded for her to help her sleep.

DEER:

riddled with anxiety, whilst somehow being the most still and unsettling person in the room. deer!reader, much like a real deer is skittish, easily frightened, but ever so curious. she has a different view on the world to most of her peers, a master in people watching and could win any staring competition. she’s often found with her nose in a book, the topic being either of something completely fanatical, or something informative and peculiar. due to her reading habits, much like her boyfriend pope she is a whirlpool of information, constantly quietly spewing facts into his ear (which let’s be real, is practically foreplay for the two of them.) she has a tendency to get into trouble from her prying, exploring and staring — but she doesn’t mean to come across that way, she’s the picture of innocence really! she likes 50s/ 60s music, finding a charming and simple peace to the sound — and is a mass collector of callico critters, sonny angels and blythe dolls. pope finds it adorable.

Hi ! It's me again, I just wanted to add that I think you're absolutely amazing. Your writing is perfect, and out of all the stories I've read about Satoru, I feel like you have the best interpretation of him, and you do a great job of conveying that in your writing. That's why I wanted to thank you for taking us on a journey and allowing us to escape into a world with Satoru!

I also wanted to make a small request, but of course you can ignore this part if you don't feel like it! The Kaleidoscope series is by far my favorite, and I wanted to see Satoru's wife be a little jealous...he's such a simp for her, and only has eyes for her, so she never has to worry about anything, and I love that, but why not have a little turn of events with lots of fluff.

Thank you!

—Gojo Satoru X Wife Reader

𑁍 Genre: fluff, a lil' wifezilla moment with y/n

𑁍 WC/CW/TW: (1.1k)— champagne moments, homewrecker alert, PDA *in capital letters

𑁍 A/N: midterms put the nail to my coffin, but here's a glass of bubbly to that~🥂

Your husband without question is a fine-looking man. Too fine sometimes. But you could never count how many times girls bat lashes in his direction or even try to snag your man away with their sultry clothes almost showing their souls to him.

Your reaction?

Well, normal.

If you were a jealous woman having Satoru as your man is a big no, no. He catches too much attention for his own good. Both by males at work and girls at the sides.

But it never roused an extensive feeling of jealousy or envy in your side. Albeit after years of being with him that is. Others may call it arrogance or simply the steeled assurance between the two of you... But you've never been put in a critical position where you have the urgency of stating your claim over Satoru. They could kneel and lay down his feet but only you can touch your man.

You sip the champagne served for you at tonight's gala. It's an annual social gathering held by the prime minister for the Jujutsu clans. And the Gojo Clan being at the top of the Three Great Families of the Jujutsu society, you must attend for the formalities or whatnots.

What a bore...

Satoru's attitude must have rubbed on you for finding the opulent hall, with glitters and dazzle to be such a stifling event. Your eyes roamed around and found nothing worth noting except for the chocolate fountain Saika would've gone crazy about if she was here.

On the other hand, Satoru is crowded by both men and women. His mere height makes it hard not to spot him in the room. Not to add the newly tailored montsuki you had for him makes him eye-catching.

You had to ask him to let you sit after standing and greeting other attendees for so long. Now you're here sitting on the corner, catching your poise while passing boredom with your glass of bubbly.

Satoru is holding a glass of his extra extra sweet non-alcohol mocktail. Judging by the frequent sarcasm in his words and scrunched of his nose he will come to you and ask to go home before half an hour from now.

That was what you supposed until a younger lady came forward and started talking directly to Satoru ignoring the people around her as she laughed obnoxiously for your liking.

Call it a woman's instinct when you easily narrow to the side of your eyes as she tries to bend a little lower exposing a bit of her cleavage. Satoru didn't react much and continued talking anyway.

You don't know the girl's family background but from her flashy appearance, diamonds sparkling on her, you could surmise that she came from an influential family enough to be personally invited by the prime minister. She's too... gaudy.

It was only when she tried to offer another glass of champagne to Satoru by grabbing onto his arms and pushing the flute towards Satoru that your brow raised. She wasn't able to touch him because of Satoru's Infinity but it still counts as something uncomfortable for a lady to do with a married man.

People never really learned... It's funny seeing them try so hard, but there should be a limit to it.

Satoru's temple creased as well. But he wasn't able to do anything more when a hand grabbed the flute of the champagne being shoved toward him and a familiar sweet jasmine scent filled his nostrils. The sound of your zori heels against the marble floor broke the awkward atmosphere.

You took the flute from the surprised and confused girl and leisurely sipped the liquor before turning to whisper something to Satoru's ear but your eyes never left the girl. His Infinity dissolved the second you held on to his elbow.

"Hey Baby," Satoru hummed with a bright smile on his lips.

"She's. Annoying. Me." You punctuated the word before baring your teeth and sinking them in his enticing earlobe you only let go when you heard a subtle needy whine from your husband. An arm immediately wrapped on the back of your waist to steady you. Satoru mumbled an incoherent phrase as you hummed back in reply.

The small group was stunned and at the same time flushed at the sudden move from your side. You simply smiled and surveyed your eyes on the people, your eyes took their time to watch the young lady with a scowl on her face.

"My husband is non-alcoholic, I will take this drink for him." You downed the flute of bubbles in one go before giving the passing server the empty glass and bending a little to whisper in the young lady's ear.

There's a glint in your eyes that made everyone look away and slowly withdraw to scatter around the hall.

"There's a thin line between brave and stupid." You stood back straight and softly smiled. "Which one are you, little girl?"

She better thank whatever devil possessed you to drink a lot tonight that you're feeling a little too tipsy to argue. An arm snaked at the back of your waist whilst a hand landed on your hips to steady you.

Like a pup with its tail tucked between her legs, she turned her heel, flushed cheeks, and hunched shoulders as she walked to the other side of the banquet.

You rolled your eyes and looked for the nearest seat but a firm grip on your hips reminded you of the towering man holding you upright.

"Loved your little show~" Satoru chuckled as he tilted your dazed face higher so you could stare into his enthralling blue orbs. "My pretty, pretty Baby, so territorial over me, huh?"

You weren't able to answer back as he took your lips for a quick and sweet kiss, in the midst of the crowd, you both stood there. Him, with a victorious and satisfied smirk, and you, tipsy and in a stupor of the outward display of affection.

The crowd turned away, some gasped, some looked scandalized, and some were grinning ear to ear. Satoru and his penchant for lack of decorum is shining so brightly.

You're not teens anymore, you're both married for more or less 10 years, but damn this sweet man for never failing in drawing you in his touch. You gripped his haori. What's worse is you cannot bring your lips to protest.

Satoru sensed this and finally guided you away from the crowd, only after he kissed your temples one more time.

"My Mrs. Gojo." Satoru grinned.

Maybe you never needed to do this little stunt but for some reason this small pettiness makes your heart beat like a teenager head over heels for Satoru... What's more, is that—

That ought to teach them where he belongs.

[archangeldyke-all]

I thought of this and just need somewhere to keep it you can share if you want:

Sevika with a nail tech gf

Sevika letting her paint her nails on her human hand from time to time

Sevika eventually letting her do acrylics on her (nothing too long or two flashy)

Sevika only fighting with her mech hand whenever her nails are done

Sevika being more expressive with her hands when she does get a bit of a fancier set

Sevika getting her nails to match yours whenever you do them

Sevika getting your initial on her nail once and asking for it every time after that

Sevika beaming to let any and everyone know that her girlfriend did her nails, and yes, that's her inital on there

Yeah, I wanna do her nails for her omfg

THIS SI SSOO..... IM SOBBING.

men and minors dni

at first, she doesn't let you anywhere near her hands. she's horrified of all the little drills and scissors, and she's never been the type of person to do anything to her fingers.

but... you look so sad practicing on your little plastic fingers, so she gives in pretty fast.

it starts with just a clear top coat on top of her natural nails, that have been all cleaned up and trimmed.

and... she absolutely loves it. she can't stop looking down at her shiny, healthy looking nails all week.

so... when you ask the next week if you can add some color, she says yes.

she starts with blacks and dark purples and reds. the colors in her pallets.

but as time goes on, and you gain more and more products, she starts letting her restrictions go, lets you paint her nails whatever color you want.

sparkles in the summer, pride nails in june, french tips in winter, sometimes even fancy nail designs when you're feeling fancy.

she doesn't love all your outcomes, but she loves you so much. and she loves the hour or two the two of you set aside every weekend, her hand in yours, as you gently clip and buff and oil her fingers. she loves the sweet concentrated look you get, the pride in you eyes when you're all done, and more than everything-- she loves the kisses you press to her fingers when they're dry.

when you start learning how to do acrylics, she refuses to let you near her human hand with them. she needs her hand to fight and write and work, and she can't do anything with the extensions on.

but her mech hand? she'll let you do whatever you want to it.

can you imagine her with 2 inch acrylics hanging off her gold fingers? painted gold and copper to match her arm?

they'd make her feel sooooo fucking hot. especially when she's fighting people and she can claw the fuck outta them with her new fingernails.

she'd insist that you match her short human nails to whatever design you do on her acrylics.

half the time, she can be found gently gazing down at her fingernails, a small smile on her face.

she becomes so high maintenance about them. the second she gets a chip or looses an acrylic, she's coming home to you with a big pout, begging you to fix them up, or better yet, give her a fresh new set.

she'll start coming home with crazy ideas about her nails she wants you to try. "do you think you could encapsulate some glitter so it can move around freely inside the nail?" or "you should drill a hole through the tip so we can add some charms dangling off." she's adorable.

she starts making you do her toes too. she keeps those more simple, just black or white or a basic color matching the base of whatever design you'd done on her fingers.

she talks with her hands now, all the fucking time. she was never that expressive when she spoke, but now she emphasizes everything with a wave of her pretty nails. people can tell when she's pissed because she starts drumming her acrylics on the nearest flat surface-- many goons have pissed themselves at the sound of the acrylics slowly tapping a table as they try to explain their latest mistake to her.

and every single time someone compliments her nails, sevika grins and starts gushing about her incredibly talented girlfriend, pulling your card out of her back pocket and forcing it on the poor person who was just trying to give her a compliment.

also the initial thing?? yeah, she never considers a manicure complete until she's got your initial or signature carefully painted on her pinkies.

i am so in love with her

Bonjour!

Alright! I'm opening comms for BJD gel nails. I've been perfecting my methods for doing doll nails for some time now, while also studying to become an actual nail tech, and I'm finally confident enough that I have perfected some solid, strong, worthy-of-paying-for gel nails for dolls.

List of Materials:

-Plastic straws

-Elmer's glue/nail glue (removable with acetone)

-Builder gel

-UV Gel polish

-Nail Charms

-Rhinestone glue

-Chrome powder

Current Charm List:

This is a list of all charms I currently have that fit the scale of doll nails without being too big.

-Clear bubble and pink glitter hearts

-Silver, gold, and rose gold rhinestones

-Pearls (large appearance)

-Crosses (can be painted any color)

These nail extensions need to be sculpted directly onto your doll's nail beds to properly fit. I cannot make doll press-ons. This means you will have to ship me your doll's hands.

Some of the products I use require exposure to UV lamps. Because of this, all hands are wrapped in opaque masking tape everywhere except the nail beds to avoid yellowing. Though in my experience, especially in my first attempts, even repeated UV exposure in these lamps has not caused any visible yellowing, I never know when I'll be working on a doll who is more sensitive to yellowing, and I don't want to put anyone's precious doll hands at risk of discoloration.

You can contact me for any questions here on Tumblr, or you can find me on Discord as rosalium, or email me at princerosalium@gmail.com.

Day 15 - Painting on each other

Thanks again to @forlorn-crows for the wonderful prompts! Wc: 1,2k

Phantom watched longingly as Aurora fixed her nails, carefully putting extensions on, then painting them and then decorating them with pretty shapes and colors. He and Aurora had been hanging out for the majority of the day, watching movies, talking, listening to music, facemasks, all those sorts of things. Then she wanted to paint her nails. She had offered some nail polish to Phantom, if he also wanted to paint his nails.

He wanted to have painted nails, he really loved having painted nails, but he didn't know how. He wished he could paint his nails like that, with all the details and stones and glitter. He wished he could have as pretty nails like she always had.

He could paint his nails if he wanted to, Rain and Ifrit did it all the time and no one cared, but he couldn't paint them like they could. When he did it, they always ended up looking messy and no matter how hard he tried, he was always picking or biting them, making them too short to be able to be painted properly. Another problem was his patience, seemingly non-existent, he was never able to wait for them to dry properly, always ruining them or ending up with nail polish in his hair.

Aurora was just finishing putting the little rhinestones on her nails when she noticed Phantom watching, that almost sad look on his face.

“Didn't you want to paint your nails?” She asked. 

Phantom quickly looked away, leaning back in his chair. He shrugged, trying to put an unbothered look on his face. Aurora saw through him though, she could see that he really wanted to. 

“You’re allowed to, you know that, right?” She asked, pausing to look directly at him. Phantom nodded. “Yeah, I know” he reassured her “I just didn't feel like doing it” He lied.

“I know you're lying” She saw right through him, she always did. He had never been able to lie to her, it didn't matter if they spoke face to face or over the phone, somehow, she always knew. “Why don't you want to paint your nails?”

Phantom looked down in his lap, examining his nails. “I…” He started, letting out a small sigh before trying again. “I can't paint them” It felt like a confession, like he had done something bad and now has to confess to it. “They’re too short and uneven, I can't stop picking and biting them and every time I’ve tried painting them, I manage to ruin them before they’re dry.”

“I can paint them for you” She suggested, “I can even put extensions on, like these” She said as she held his hands out, wiggling her fingers. He really wanted to, but Aurora had been doing this for more than an hour, and he didn't have the patience for that.

“I don't know, it’s gonna take ages”, “And I’ll probably find a way to ruin them” He muttered. He wished he could, but it would just be a waste.

“We can watch a movie while I paint them” She suggested, looking hopefully at him. “C’mon, I really want to paint them” She added a little “Please”, giving him her best puppy eyes. Phantom sighed, “I guess we can try”

Aurora squealed, clapping her hand together. “Okay, choose what colors you want and how you want them to look” She ordered him as she pulled out the box with all her nail polish and handed it to Phantom. “I'm just gonna finish mine, it’ll only take a minute”

Phantom started looking through the colors, there were so many to choose from. He lined up all the colors he wanted to narrow it down. He definitely wanted to have black in the mix, and that glittery dark purple. He wanted to have that shiny silver too, so he added that to the pile. Now there was only the bright orange left. Would it look bad with the other colors? It was very vibrant and bright. But he really wanted it.

“Have you picked out what colors you want?” Aurora asked, pulling him out of his thoughts. “Will these work?” He asked, a bit unsure about his choices, as he held out the four colors. “Of course, that orange will really make it pop out!” She reassured.

Aurora gave the computer to Phantom, so he could decide what movie to watch while she was getting everything ready. He decided on The Blues Brothers, funny and entertaining. He positioned the computer on the table so they would both be able to see.

Aurora sat down in front of him, motioning for him to give her his hands. She started filing them and then gluing something to them to make them longer, he guessed it was the extensions she talked about. It was quite relaxing, it felt nice when she was fixing his nails.

“How long do you want your nails to be?”

“Not very long, just normal nail length” He wanted to be able to do things, like open cans and use his phone. He’d seen Aurora use her hands and her nails were quite long, he did not want that. 

“Do you just want the colors or do you want any design on them too?” She asked as she was finishing his thumb. “Uhmm…” He didn't know what was possible or what would look good. “I don't know, you choose” He had no idea what he wanted, it was just easier if Aurora chose what she wanted to do.

She started by painting his nails black, except for the ring finger and thumb that she painted orange. Then she made him put his hands in some weird box with blue light, she said it would make the nail polish dry. 

“That looks so cool!” She’d coated the black nails in the sparkly purple polish, making them look like dark galaxies. 

“I know, right?” 

She made him put his hands in the box again, so he did and they watched the movie for a while. They took a break and went down to the kitchen for some snacks and to stretch their legs. They boiled some water and poured into a cup of noodles each.

The movie was about halfway through when they finished their noodles and Aurora continued to paint his nails. She decorated the galaxy nails with silver stars that she painted and put some rhinestones on too.

“All done! “Aurora announced. Phantom looked at his nails and he thought he could cry, not because they were bad, they were amazing. But he hadn't realized how much this meant for him. He’d tried times and times before, but it always ended with him ruining them and feeling like a failure. Maybe he was overreacting because it was just nails, but for some reason it felt like much more and he couldn't be happier.

“I don't know what to say, they look amazing” He stood up and walked over to Aurora and held his arms out. She immediately stood up and wrapped her arms around him, embracing him in a hug. “Thank you Rora, you have no idea how much this means to me” He whispered into her neck, holding her even tighter.

DAMN I feel like you might be one of the only people who’ll write for Strega LOLLL

can I request my favorite nerd (Jin Shirato) getting his nails painted/done by his S/O? Odd request, but thought it’d be interesting :3 NB or gender neutral S/O is fine!

persona 3: painting his nails (jin shirato)

notes: non-binary reader, short-ish, fluff

"what if i painted your nails?" "h-huh?!"

to say jin was taken aback would be an understatement. why did you want to paint his nails? what????

"i think it'd be cool! you'd look super awesome with like, black or a neon green... ooh, maybe blue? like your hair!"

the more jin listened to you ramble on about nail polish colours, the more he warmed up to the idea of it. maybe... it wouldn't be too bad. it's not like you were going to go all out with extensions and charms and (shudders) glitter

"...alright, fine. you can paint my nails. but only my hands!"

at his concession you were ecstatic! you immediately got your stuff and got to work, trimming and priming his nails before painting them. you two settled on a simple black for now, with the hope that later you'd be able to try more loud colours

jin doesn't show off his nails, but he does try to subtly reveal them more often than he used to :)

Halloween Party at Roller Dreams | Open | @nycshqstarts

Considering this was only Karmen's third time on the rink, she had finally gotten this skating thing down. Gone were the days of inching along the edge, clinging to the rail or desperately holding her friends' hands. Now, she was totally in her element; dressed to impress as an '80s Glam Roller Disco Queen. She’d nailed the theme with a vibrant neon pink bodysuit decked out in sequins and orange accents along the cuffs and neckline. The detachable, sheer orange sleeves were dotted with tiny glitter stars, making her shimmer under the rink lights as she rolled along. Her look wouldn’t be complete without accessories, of course; a chunky orange belt with silver chains draping off one side, fingerless pink gloves, oversized hoop earrings, and layered choker necklaces. Glittery face stickers added to the vibe, and her makeup pulled it all together with neon pink and orange eyeshadow in a fierce cat-eye flick, glitter on her cheekbones, bold orange lipstick, and rhinestones near her temples. Her hair was styled in voluminous curls with neon pink and orange extensions flowing through it. But the best part? Her custom-made pink and orange skates with glitter wheels, which she’d designed just for tonight. Hearing her name, Karmen looked back, giggling as she spotted her friend skating over. “Finally! I was starting to think I’d be dazzling this whole crowd alone!” she laughed, reaching out and grabbing their hand. “I was about to start doing a one-woman show,” she added with a wink, grinning as they locked arms and rolled forward, practically lighting up the rink together.

Not to be a hater but I genuinely cannot stand the current state of nail culture. I was telling a girl about something that happened while I was paining my nails and she went “Like on your nail? With regular polish?” Yes, like the way nails are done. I get like fancy designs and extensions, you can’t do that with normal nails but her gel was like one color with glitters. I truly don’t get dropping a 100$ on something that you can do at home for dirt cheap. AND it gives you a fun skill tree task cuz you get better at it almost every time! AND and a government assigned relax time when you can’t do anything but sit and wiggle ur hands around <3

Bonus of my awesome x-files ass nails that took like 20 cents and 30 minutes of my time total
