Nails I’ve done as a beginner

I just started right after Christmas, I just ordered a ton of nail stuff so I can improve and get better at doing my own nails, also the frenchies I did were freehanded so don’t mind the uneven ones haha😅

... Read moreAs a beginner in nail art, improving your skills can be both exciting and challenging. The key is to practice consistently and experiment with different techniques. Start with basic designs and gradually advance to more intricate styles. Gel X nails, like the ones I tried, offer a durable and versatile option for art. They allow you to create beautiful nail designs without compromising strength. It's important to invest in quality products tailored for beginners, making the application process smoother. For those interested in freehand designs like my Frenchies, practicing on practice tips or even using templates can help refine your skills. YouTube tutorials and nail art communities can provide step-by-step guidance and inspiration. Don't be discouraged by initial imperfections; every nail artist started somewhere! Keep experimenting and you'll see significant improvements over time.

These are all the polygel nails I’ve done!! Polygel is basically like acrylic but it doesn’t dry at all until you cure it. This is a good alternative to acrylic but if you don’t take it off correctly you can still damage your nails pretty bad. I still recommend to try it thooo!! #forthenails
