As part of my gender exploration I've gotten into doing my own nails and I've gotten pretty good at it if I do say so myself, but I've never tried extensions/acrylics. I picked up a kit with assorted sizes but after opening it I've realized my large hands also have large nails, and the largest of the acrylics is only enough for my index finger. I'm kinda posting this to rant out of frustration even though this is a textbook first world problem. But if anyone has suggestions for extended sizes I'd appreciate it. For now I guess I'm relying on however long my natural nails get before they break.
Oooo good idea! I've builder gel to add some strength but never actually all that much. I kinda wanna try giving myself actual claws that way sometime lol
Yeah, it's cheap and you can make your own extensions. A simple e file and some forms, cheap uv light and you're all set. I went to a pro a few times and watched closely how they did it. I still see her for my eyebrows, but she's usually impressed with my work. Problem is, it takes me like 6 hours.
I did it!!! Thanks for the tip! Not quite done with the hand yet, but I'm sure I'll get faster ans better at it.
Super cute, great work!
Edit: meant to do this heart!
Thank you
