I keep telling myself that I’m finally going to make a schedule and stick to it, but as all things with good intentions, my brain decides that no, that isn’t something I can do. <\/p>

However it does let me keep making nails every day, and I try to do at least 1 nail a day just to always be trying new things. And this month I made quite a few nails. <\/p>

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>

I primarily make nails for four of my friends, and so generally the nails I make are tailored to either them, or myself if I’m being totally honest, and all of us are real Kpop fans so the nails I make tend to have a…. particular bend to them. <\/p>

Because of that a lot of them do have decals of Kpop artists on them, and while I’d love to tell you where to buy those for your own nails, I actually make them myself doing a very not mysterious system of me finding the images on the internet, painstakingly masking them out from the backgrounds in photoshop, lining them all up and scaling them to the size I want, before printing them on waterslide decal paper. <\/p>

After that, you’ve got to spray them with clear spray sealant, and then after they’re dry use an xacto knife to very slowly and carefully cut them out. It’s tedious and I have cut myself more than I care to admit, but they do make cute nails. I made the above shown Chanyeol Nails for my one friend Katy (who is a huge EXO-L like myself) over some green magnetic polish, and then very slowly painted on all of the squiggles over a matte topcoat before doing isolated chrome on them. It took… way longer than I care to admit, but they turned out so cute. When I shared them with the ol nail groupchat, my other friend Nicole loved them, but not the colours, so I did end up recreating them in purple and teal, featuring Felix from Stray Kids. <\/p>
