Ever seen a mani on fungal nails?

That’s it—warped, off-color, kinda gross. Manicures don’t cause fungus, but the physical filing thins the nail’s natural armor, making it easier for spores to slip in. Gel polish seals the nail, trapping heat and moisture—fungus heaven. Third, sharing tools between clients is a fast track to cross-contamination. #Manicure #NailCare #FungalNailIssues

How to Tell Your Nail Tech Exactly What Shape You Want?

Just show him or her this picture! Square nails are the best for nail care—they help grow a clean, pretty free edge. Almond is the most common, versatile, and everyday shape; paired with nude, pink, or off-white, it works for both work and school. Stiletto nails are sharper and slimmer, but they demand intricate designs—perfect for complex art. Coffin (ballerina) nails look more elegant and polished; they’re great in solid colors and killer for a classic French. #Manicure #NailTalk

A solid-color mani only counts when it’s done like this!

No fancy nail art—just a killer shape, perfectly even color, flawless C-curve, and glass-like shine. Every legit tech should have this nailed. Does yours? #ManicureGoals #Manicure

I seriously don’t get why everyone’s hating on long nails right now.

I seriously don’t get why everyone’s hating on long nails right now. I’m a hardcore long-nail stan—extra length just makes my fingers look longer and prettier, and the same goes for a sharp stiletto. I’m constantly hit with “Ew, gross!” or “You can’t do housework!” or “Guys hate those claws!” Like, hello: 1) I think it looks fire—straight-up saying it’s ugly to my face is rude. 2) I don’t scrub floors; machines handle all of that. 3) I do my nails for me and my girls, not for guys—I literally don’t care what dudes like. Any dude who trashes me over my nails is making less money than I am, which is honestly hilarious. #NailCare #Manicure #RudeMan
