As soon as I knew I was gonna be in Bangkok I had to book in to get my nails done @Whatever 💖 As a nail tech myself who’s worked in the U.K. and USA it was super interesting seeing the difference in products, techniques, and even how people are in the salon (it was waaaaaay quieter here but in the USA and UK I feel like we all love to chitter chatter). The nails turned out so cute so if you’re in Bangkok and need the cutest nail art of your life definitely go here 💅🏻🥰

2/16 Edited to

Having worked as a nail technician in both the UK and the USA, I was genuinely curious about the nail salon culture and practices in Bangkok. One thing that stood out immediately was how calm and quiet the salons were compared to the lively and chatty environments I'm used to back home. It felt more like a serene pampering session than a social gathering, which I quite enjoyed. Regarding the products and techniques, I noticed that while the quality was excellent, the brands used tended to differ, likely due to regional availability and preferences. The nail art styles leaned more towards intricate 3D designs, which are very popular locally and gave the nails a unique, standout look. This type of art isn’t just visually appealing but also speaks to the skilled craftsmanship of the technicians I met. Price-wise, getting my nails done with removal, new extensions, and customized art cost approximately 2000 THB, which is roughly $60-70 USD. This is quite reasonable considering the level of detail and service. If you’re visiting Bangkok and want impressive nail art that blends creativity with quality, I highly recommend exploring local salons offering such specialized services. Overall, this trip broadened my perspective on international nail trends and reaffirmed my love for the art itself. Trying out salons in different countries can be a fantastic way to discover new techniques and styles that you might not encounter in your home country. If you’re a nail enthusiast planning a trip to Bangkok, be sure to schedule a visit to a reputable nail studio – you might come away with not just beautiful nails but also fresh inspiration for your own work or style.

The wrong question to be asking more experienced lifters or people with nice physiques is “What is your workout routine?” Or “What do you do on leg/arm/back/(whatever) days?” This is because you will be met with a lot of redundancy. Most people actually do the same exact handful of “basic” worko
