life hack: start doing your own nails

i’ve been doing my own nails for about 2 years now, and it is the best. you get to take as long as you’d like, choose specific designs, and in the end it’s much cheaper than going to the salon each month. i do gel x and it’s wayy better for your nails than acrylic. i definitely recommend this! #lemon8contest #AskLemon8 #fypシ゚viral #nails #DIY

Plus it has the potential to turn into a career if I decide to take a break from the field im currently studying to go into
