What I asked for VS What I got

2025/2/1 Edited to

... Read moreNail art has become a popular form of self-expression and creativity. Many people have high expectations when visiting a nail salon, often inspired by social media trends and celebrity looks. However, the reality can sometimes differ from what you envisioned. When planning your nail art, consider factors like your nail shape, skin tone, and the durability of the design. Creating a reference image can help communicate your ideas effectively to your nail technician. Remember to research current nail trends, such as minimalist designs, vibrant colors, or intricate art that requires precision. Additionally, don't hesitate to discuss options for customization to achieve a look that is uniquely yours. Whether opting for bold patterns or subtle elegance, open communication is key to a satisfying nail art experience. Seek inspiration from online platforms where you can find hashtags like #nailinspo that showcase a diverse range of styles. Embracing both the art's expectations and its surprises can lead to a greater appreciation of your final nail design.

As soon as I showed the nail tech what I was looking for he said “I can try” 😬 and he really did I’m such a people pleaser and could see him really trying but then again I’m so OCD and don’t think they give the same vibe. Over all, before tip was $85. I still think they’re cute, but not

Been awhile! To be honest just haven’t been doing great but I’m trying to hop back to it now! These are the nails I just got from my tech— I think they came out super cute! I’m thinking of going to cosmetology school for nails myself… still feel like I’m teetering on if I definitely want to or not
