Sometimes I feel like males tech do better job than females tech, no offense ladies, it’s based on my experience. Unfortunately I didn’t not go back to that place because they hired other people and they couldn’t do the job. Miss it though 🥲. What’s your thoughts?! #nailsinspo

Because I wear press ons and know EXACTLY what I am getting when I apply them while I save a $hit ton of $$. Y’all it’s 2024 let me help you ditch the salon! This specific style, lasted me 13 days before I ended up removing them on my own. WITH NO pop offs! We have so many styles and colors/ design

So I like what I got but it’s not what I wanted. The nail tech did have the rhinestones for my pinky so she recommended to do cute flowers instead, at first I was a bit iffy to get it but I said I was going to trust the process also the base color for the blue is not the same but oh well neverthele

My first time getting almond shape done. And she thought that if we added the iridescent powder it wouldn’t look so basic but I think I like the basic look more. Trying to convince myself they have a princess & the frog look to it. Next time no iridescent powder. What are your thoughts. H

My client sent me a nail inspo pic but I couldn’t do them exactly like the picture since she was getting acrylic and the set she sent me was a gel x gel polish set. She also wanted them medium length instead of short. So we went with a cute pink and I honestly love the set I did more than the inspo
