kandiikane:

I wanted to get one done but the chinese lady didn't know what I was talking about and she just popped diamantes on each of my ring fingers.

it is alwayz good to use pictures

I completely agree. Use pictures and confirm that they can perform the style BEFORE they start. I've found nail artists to be honest if they aren't able to do what you want.

Not all though, the ones i've come across seem to try to use your nails for practice , and then 2 days later the damn thing is looking old.
this is why i DIY sometimes at home . and got all the colours i wanted for that. see below.

i've recently found a good one who does home services, she did these french tips and its quite impressive.i think she's good.

i've had this O.P.I shatter polish for quite sometime now , but haven't used them yet.

hope to try them when i 'm tired of the french tips

nice look

Hmmm...I may try the shatter. I wonder what color I should do underneath it. It is springtime.

I got No dance moves

these colours could be nice for spring

getting a bit bored of the Frenchies now, i think i'll try on this pink shatter with silver underneath this weekend.

really cool.

@Lepasharon
sweetheart remember the saying....''empty vessels make the loudest noise'' huh ? ... ,lets not dignify that by replying to such posts especially by newbies. hmm just keep the lovely nail art pictures coming so we don't allow the thread to be derailed.

@LoveAmaka88

keep the pictures coming

do you ladies remember the glass nails (transparent nails).

i hated those . and you had limited choices when picking the colours to paint on them.

they never really looked good on me.

Who run the world? Girls!

....lol cup cake nails.. i like that.

I like these colors

More waves. Anyone gotten their nails done lately?

You gals just gave me an idea with some of these pictures. I will start gathering stones from my native lace attire. I see a lot of them on the ground and the bucket after I wash. It sure would come in handy in attaching to my nails

ok ladies, finally took out the french tips, and had this shatter polish done a couple of hours ago, its DIY ,so its a bit messy.

but ,honestly , i'm not impressed with it. So i'm gonna wipe them off tomorrow and try something new.

it looks nice^

lepasharon: it looks nice^

thanks, but i still want to try one of the cute ones in the first page (pink and gold).but not with the pointy tips.

check out this one

The confetti nails are fab.

Confessional: So my post with the orange nails was my first time getting acrylic and tips. I will never do that again. My nails are so weak and damaged now, I am horrified. The way they remove acrylic is by filing it off, yikes! Please take care of your nails ladies. I learned my lesson. I'm sticking to gel or natural nail manis.
