Mermaid/Beach Inspired Nails
My step mom got me some new nail guides so I had to try them out! (These are also new polishes.) It had chevron, french, and sweetheart shapes. I used the chevron for these but you could probably use any of those 3. These nails really reminded me of mermaids or the beach after I finished. I think it kinda looks like gold mermaids tails in water or sand water and pearls. I really love how it turned out. :)
One thing I might do differently is putting a base coat of white or a 3rd coat of blue cause it seemed a little see through.

Above is what I used (minus the guides). First I did 2 coats of Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear in Blizzard Blue. I let it dry and put the guide on and used 1 coat of Golden-I and took the guide off and repeated this for every nail. Then I went back and very carefully put a 2nd coat though some of them I tried leaving the guide on for maybe a minute or 2 and then put more on. Either way seemed to work good but some needed touched up a bit. After I did that I used the white pearls in the wheel. I have nail glue but if you put them on wet paint it works just as good. Then I used Sally Hansen Insta-Dri as always lol.
Here you can compare with and without the pearls. I think both look great and adding jewels might be a hassle for some especially when they are as tiny as these ones.
What it looks like from my view and from someone else's view. I never paid to much attention to how it might look to someone else til I did my Halloween cat nails. I really just do my nails for myself but sometimes it's cute to have a design like the cat I did so that others can see just standing in front of you. :)

Doing a fish face is hard with braces... (Big update)
Me attempting to do a fish face lol. Pretty much impossible with these braces..
Pictures below were taken September 1st
Taken September 11. The same day as the first picture with fish face
September 16. I believe this was right after I got new wires? I'm gonna guess after because of how white the bands are. They always end up turning yellow especially if I eat the dreaded Wienerschnitzel.
| No nail polish?! lol |
October 1st
Trying to show the shape of the bottom teeth from above. Hard to get a decent picture of by myself
Here you can see how thin the gums are around the root of the tooth.. It kinda freaks me out cause it's what my canines looked like before they came in. I worried the gums would break open or something but they haven't and it looks quite a bit better now.
I was trying to get pictures of the chain here. It goes from the canine to my molar
October 7th
October 15th, After getting new wires on
October 21st
No more chain
Bottom canines looking a bit better where the thin area was
It's been a while since I've written an update. I guess I don't have much to say other than it's quite a shock to see some of these older pictures because my teeth have moved so much. And also not having a chain has hurt a lot less. :) If you have any questions feel free to ask!
