^It's better if you paint black first, then white ontop to control how much black can show, like you get a more precise pointy edge thing....

I've never done it though, saw a similar pattern on a video ^^~

I asked this beforeee, but no one answered.

How can you do pretty zebra prints?!
I've been trying to do it with a tootpick, but it's super hard and doesn't turn out right.
i've looked on google and youtube. but zip, nothing.

pleeaaaaase, someone guide meee.

People that has done the zebra print before usually owned a "konad" nail kit to do that... the zebra prints is already there... you just got to stamp it onto your nail... you can find the "konad" nail kit on ebay or at the mall stand...

Bunnylicious happend to own a set and she can better help you with anything info you would like to know.

yeah, you can make Zebra patterns with Konad, but if you want cheap way, have you tried using a pointy brush? like the size of an eyeliner brush?

or anything of that nature
i use the pro skinny bottle of polish
they just look like really skinny bottle of polish
and the brush is pretty long and thin

and then
you practice!

The zebra print is actually one of the easiest to do. All you need is black and white nail polish and a really thin fine brush. The brush doesn't have to be a nail brush. You could use brushes that are meant for painting. I think it's cheaper too. Anyway, first paint white as base colour and draw black lines across. Find some image for reference. It's ok if you don't have steady hands. The lines aren't meant to be straight anyway.

ah! i'm in loveeeeeee with nail art too! XD

but they're always so difficult to do and my left hand's always unsteady, so i just order pre-made subtle 3D acrylics
doesn't hinder me when i do work either

i really wanted to get these nails but ive seen so many have them on my friends - i reckon they look better in mags, photos and on tv rather than in real life
