hey, just a few days ago I went to a Vietnamese nail salon in Toronto, they charge 15$ for acrylics. I don't remember the store's name exactly unfortunately but it's along yonge st. outside of bloor station. there's actually alot of nail salons in that area. the first one i went to charge 20$ for acrylic nails so we went to the next one which charged only 15$ :'D look around that area and i'm sure you'll find a good salon. but besides that i dont know any good places around york region, sorry ): goodluck finding one though~~

use a nail art pen brush, it's a nail polish that comes w/ a pointy brush, if you live in US, you can get it at Sally's Beauty Supply
or just buy a pointy paint brush from an art store.
Doea anyone know the best brand to make 3D nail art??
Also does anyone know a nice place I can get them online other then ebay.
I bought some in japan once and I used it all and I want to get more, but Im in the US so I cant get more in japan

She works at a nail salon. She also cuts hair, so I basically pay nothing to get my nails done and hair cut. lol. Umm .. I'm not sure what the brand is. It was at the shop my mom works at. When I get the chance, I'll ask her.

It's UV Gel. Pink and White Gel.
I just took them off a few days.... and argh... my nails look so ugly now... I think I'm gonna go get Bio Gel this time. Hehe.
Lala, anyone have any new sets of nail they wanna show off too? Lol. That's the thing with nails, once you get them done, you get so addicted to it, you gotta have it again and again... Sighs.

Haha, very, you save money by doing it yourself. Actually, I'm planning on learning about nail arts right now at a nails salon shop. There's this chick that uses both her right and left hand to do gels on herself. I guess you slowly get used to it. Lol. I can't use my left hand though.... I tried writing my name with it... and it looks like a preschoolers writing... >.>
my most recent nails.
free hand by my cousin.
umm does anyone know where i can get the crystal made nailfilers? and the thin brushed nailpolishes?

Also love your nails, your cousin has such a steady hand ^^.

Using the Konad design
Kinda freaky looking.
Konad nail polish takes a looong time to dry, the black bled a bit after I applied clear coat :-/
next time will try the leopards <3

HAHA! no way, i actually thought they were acrylics.
It looks really neat, when i did mine you could tell they were fake because it had bubbles under the fake nails and stuff.
@ ~ BunnyliciouS ~
Are the pattern stamps hard to do? I have the set for flowers and stars but I've never tried stamping the whole nail.
Btw they look good. I want to try that design with a gold base. ^^
^Good idea !! Next time I will try gold base with the leopard design. 
It's not hard at all, just messy, because the stamp size for this design is bigger than my nail size.
So beside on the nail, the paint was also all over the skin too.

I love the design on the nails but the actual nails look too big on your fingers. They don't look like they're fitted properly, it's extremely obvious they're fake. I suggest next time try to make them look more natural and real. But again love the design very cute.
First time using fake nails. Size was abit too big and its too long lol just trimmed them, so its shorter now, n more comfortable, lol.
^ so so cool.
where did you get them? on soompi? i need to buy some nice designs

OMG did you do those nails yourself???? anyways the 3D nail stuff you can buy at ebay just type in Dab it nail art or something to that... I know it's dab it ,and that the stuff to do the 3D art with, but if you want the stuff that's already made they have that too, and I'm sure it's come up if you type in 3D nail art or something like that
