It has been a minute since I posted a nail update. I did not do much with my nails after my last nail update. For my birthday, I was able to get them done. I got the dip-powder and liked the look. I did not get a photo of them. I kept those nails on until it was time for my cousin’s event, and then I got dip-powder again. I am new to the nail lingo, and I did not get what I wanted. I learned that I was not a fan of the dip-powder process. I should have gotten an overlay instead of dip-powder for my cousin’s event (photo below).
Money spent and lessons learned. For the new year, I was determined to get it right. I still wanted nice-looking nails, but I did not want to spend as much money. During the waiting period of getting my nails done, my nails had the opportunity to grow. This time I got an overlay over my nails and had them painted with regular polish (photo below). I also got my toes painted too. I did not get the name of the color, but the brand was OPI. I am proud of the results.
My ultimate goal is to get back to painting my own. These experiences are giving me the confidence to go in that direction.
