  • Important Things They Don’t Tell You About Getting Acrylic Nails

    When people talk about acrylic nails, people usually only mention how hard it is to use your hands after fixing them. But there’s more, and we’re here to tell you other things people don’t tell you about fixing acrylic nails.

    1 They’re addictive 

    When people talk about addiction, they forget that getting acrylic nails can be an addiction. The sound your nails make when they tap your phone, how elegant flipping a bird is and the way they take your hands from 0–100 makes you want them all the time. If your bank account can finance this addiction, we’ll eat you when it’s time to eat the rich. 

    2 They leave your nails looking ugly

    When you finally remove your acrylic nails, your nails don’t look particularly pretty. All the glue they used in fixing the acrylic end up making your natural nails unsightly . It’s worse if/when the acrylic breaks off. 

    3 You need to be creative while removing the acrylic 

    If for some reason you need them off sooner than expected, you don’t have access to nail dissolver, then prepare to suffer like this babe. And 

    Why? Because the nearest place that sold the nail dissolving solution was far, and your babe’s fingers HURT

    4 You lose some feeling in your fingers 

    Having acrylic nails means the tips of your fingers lose some feeling.  You’ll feel numb, as though you’ve been lugging around blocks of cement with your fingertips. 

    5 Never get your acrylic nails with long natural nails 

    If you grow out your nails and you’re not prepared to cut them, then acrylics aren’t for you. If you’re stubborn and enjoy brutal pain, then you can go ahead and fix the them. Removing them will hurt but at least your vocabulary of cuss words will expand. 

    6 You will have to reorient your brain 

    Things you’ve gotten used to doing will have to change because of your new… appendages. You can no longer just pick your card from the table.You’ll have to learn a new way of contorting your body to do the simplest tasks. Stressful.

  • 6 Things Women With Long Nails Might Relate To

    If you are a woman with long nails, then you should probably relate to a few things on this list.

    1) Typing

    Typing becomes so ridiculously stressful. You get so many typos, and when typing with your laptop, you look like this.

    2) Unhooking a bra

    If you live alone, this is actually double trouble because there is nobody to help you. Unhooking your bra can take five minutes.

    This is why they said the pen is mightier than the sword

    4) Clothes with buttons

    Your greatest enemy is a button. You cannot fully hold them without it slipping out a few times. Button up shirts are a menace.

    5) Laying your bed

    You can’t tuck the corners of your bedsheet in the bedframe because your nails will hurt.

    6) Doing the dishes

    Gloves will become your best friend if you wash your plates yourself. As if washing pots are not hard enough.
