nifer Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 my career isn't fancy-nail friendly, so i just keep them nicely filed and trimmed. as for my feet, they're usually a bright color in the spring/summer when i'm feeling trendy, otherwise they're a bronze color.

nutcase34 Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 I think white frendh is kinda boring. I'll get it only if I have an event or something that week. I tend to switch it up alot. I just recently did hot pink with black tips. looked hott and got alot of compliments on it. pedicure is just plain with whatever primary color I have on my nails.

klubchat Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 I love red toenails. I get the airbrush too, little butterflies or kanji symbols, hearts, whatnot. My hands are just natural; my work keeps them from being long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linka Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 I really love pale colors, so I usually have either French or some pale pink or beige shade. Once in awhile I'll get something bright, like coral, done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guccichic Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 I'm dying to get my acrylics back on so I can have a freshly french manicured hand always but they ruined my nails so much and made them brittle. It took me months to get my nails in shape again. Now everytime I try and let my nails grow, they always break!!! I've been using nailtiques bu.... just not doing it for me. Any suggestions? raincry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houze-kitty Posted March 21 Author Report Share Posted March 21 are you using the nailtiques #2? Just so you know, it is possible to overuse the #2 and any other strengther/hardener for that matter. They contain a shit load of protein and formaldehyde which, over time, can make your nails more brittle/weaker than when before you started using them. You should only be using these formulas for no more than a few weeks at a time, then go to the #1, or just a good formaldehyde free formula to keep the nails hydrated. Poshe makes an excellent base boat--Treatment base coat. The #1 secret to great looking hands, nails, and cuticles is MOISTURE. I never wash my hands without putting some kind of cream or lotion on afterwards. You can rub it right into the cuticles, too. Also---NEVER cut the cuticle around the base of the nails, only the hangnails on the sides can be gently nipped off. Try a cuticle oil on your nails/cuticles, too. My fav is Creative Nail Design "solar oil". Put a drop on each nail 2-3 times a day and rub it right in. Youll notice the diff. right away! barraquilla 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brat4life81 Posted April 12 Report Share Posted April 12 I cant seem to get away from French.... but around easter i went with light pink, nothing too bright. But i miss my french. Ill be going back to that on Thurs The woman who does my nails thinks she is going to get me to airbrush every single one of my nails, however that will never happen. that and i dont think that the office manager would like that look too much.
