nailed it.

What's happening to me? Yesterday the hair salon, today the nail salon and you should see my acrylics, not too long and only clear coated but WOW!!! I threw all caution to the wind, I couldn't understand a word the women were saying to each other but I'm pretty sure some was about me but who cares I got me some nails. I hope I can keep them on long enough for some of my real nails to grow back in. The girl said I could polish them and kept pushing for gels but I like to change colors often, I think she saw dollar signs but you have to squeeze this turnip really hard to get blood. Maybe next is a total make over? This girl thing is way fun! OOPS!! I think I posted in the wrong section.

Glad you nailed it. If you added some pictures it could have gone in the gallery.

I started getting my nails done January 2016 but I had an alterior motive. I had a bad habit of biting my nails or tearing them up around the house, yard work etc. It was my daughter that pushed me a bit to get acrylic nails. I did that for a year. Then my daughter suggested I try S & S. I have been doing that ever since. At first I would break, chip or crack a nail. Earlier this year when I had an appointment out of 10 nails 6 were either cracked, chipped or broken. I did figure out some of the cause - a keyboard. I was allowing my nails to get a bit too long. Now when I go in for an appointment the nails get trimmed back a bit. I do not get any nail polish applied during an appointment. I am in guy mode when I am there.

Just enjoy yourself...makeovers included

I get pedicures with color every 4-5 weeks. My regular girl Traci looked at my chewed up finger nails and asked about them. I admitted I was a long time nail chewer, she said if she smoothed them out I would have nothing to bite. She did so and guess what, it actually worked. I have stopped biting my nails and keep them rounded and smooth. I do get an occasional Mani but no color although I would absolutely love pink fingernails. Crissy

Allisa,
The girl thing can be expensive, with a bit of practice and the right tools you can have as much fun doing it yourself.

Good for you Allisa. Enjoy what makes you happy.

Lisa,
I'm saving my money until my renovation work is done , I accept some days I have good nails and the next they're gone , I try and keep the Grape Sorbet ( a nice soft pink ) colour on as much as I can even if the nails are sometimes trimmed and filed a little short . I hate to say this but it's getting round to wood gathering time which means the inevitable chain saw coming out and log splitting time , not good for nails !! ( Oh no not back to the Lumberjack song again !!!)
