Treat Yo Self | Getting My Nails Done
I love
to scroll through Pinterest but I get such nail inspo envy looking at
everyone’s pretty and polished talons that look immaculate. I can just never
seem to get my nails to look like this. They don’t like to grow past a certain
length, I can never seem to shape them in a very flattering way, and even if I
manage this, they feel weak and can split fairly easily. Don’t even get me
started on colour!! I love to paint my nails but no matter how much base coat
and top coat I apply – I can guarantee that at least one will have chipped
before the end of the day!
I know
that acrylics are not healthy for my nails, I know that gel polish is a lot
better, but I love my nails after I have had them done at a salon and I think
they look so pretty. I feel really feminine when acrylics have been applied
which have been perfectly shaped, topped with a lovely seasonal colour. I also
love that once they’re done I don’t have to worry about them. No more last
minute filing, or a quick top up of colour before rushing out of the house. I
feel prepped and ready to go with a fresh set of new nails.
James got me a voucher for my birthday to go and
get my nails done so I decided to pop to my local salon this weekend as a
little pick-me-up. I opted for a natural rounded tip and decided on a deep shade of red for the festive season. It is my work's Christmas party on Friday so I thought it would be nice to get my nails sorted in preparation for that.
Do you like to get your nails done at a salon?
Do you like acrylics or gel polish?
