the first two was done by my manicurist friend when i was helping her to publicise her shop. and the last two are done by myself

reminds me of Fukada Kyoko's nails.

those are real nice but i wonder how it's like to shower and wash your hair when you have all those on your nails... am really curious.

it's digital nail printing on your nails, it's like a boxy machine, and you stick your fingers in it and it prints patterns onto your nails, quick and easy =D , it can put details on your nails like nobody's business XD i heard it's popular in korea and japan, and it's starting to catch on in places in china.
and shanghai only has 1 machine atm, which is where i got it done yesterday xP there's like 500+ patterns to choose from

i didn't bring my usb for my camera so it'll have to wait a day ahaha ><

^ ohh those! i've seen them ..i forget where. but they're so weird...cuz u can even put like...your own picture on your nails.. =-=

QUOTE(swimgrl918 @ Jul 15 2007, 12:49 AM)

where do you get your nails done in hk?
im going again next year XD

^ i go to fa yuan street... it's near prince edward (i think it's exit b if u take the mtr) .. it's basically 2 huge streets of markets/shops that sell really awesome and cheap clothes, jewelry, etc. there are several fake nail stalls there n usually if u buy the fake nails..n u pay more, they'll do them for u
filing, sticking, etc.

Question:
I have been told that fake nails make your real nails thinner.
Is that true? Because I`m debating whether I should get
my nails done, or keep on trying to grow them.

hmm i was wondering how much you guys buy OPI nail polish for? Cuz I bought mine for $7 USD each and I was so happy lol that's considered cheap here cuz they're usually min. $11 USD but i bought too many so I'm selling 3 of them for $6.67 USD each and someone said my prices were too expensive

How much do they sell for in the states??

Well, when you get acrylics, they grind down your real nails before putting on the fake ones.
And also, if you take them off yourself, more of your real nail gets taken off with it, so your nails become thinner.

i'm not sure how i can do a tutorial on this because it's actually quite hard
i saw this flowers being drawn when i 14 for the first time, i tried it but never got it right
i'm 18 now.. xD haha
so it took a lot of time
but i guess i had some on off time inbetween where i didn't even try it

i was wondering. what do you use to draw those designs. they are so prfectly thin and well done. i love the 2nd one

gel is like acrylic, slightly just a different form and the process is different
it needs to be "cured" under UV light

ahaha sjsu is all the way downtown but like eastridge is probably the closest mall and the machines they have they have four and yeah it gets pretty busy but the only downside is that if u want color on the inside...paint ur nails the color u want first because they only print the image not the color

i did my toes. you can kinda see how the nail has grown. so i had to remove the polish.

the bf did my nails. my hands are too shaky for these things. He put on like 5 layers of polish, which makes them look like fake nails, but they're real.

Haha... I think it's really cute that your boyfriend did that for you.

My nails are nowhere as near as professional as any of you guys here. I was bored, so I painted a glittery layer and added nail stickers and diamantes to my nails before finishing with a double clear coat.

The camera is only 2MP, so it couldn't capture most of it clearly
