10 Nail Questions:
Natural nails of enhancements ?: Natural! I don’t have the time to get ’em done so I just try to let my nails grow to a beautiful length and paint them every week.
French of color ?: Color. When I was a teenager I would have said French haha.

Short or long nails ?: In between. Not too long, not too short. As long as I can comfortable work without having to worry about my nails I’m good!
Favorite nail shape?: Roundish.
Glitter or no glitter ?: Depends. Daily life: no glitter. But parties? Glitter!

Nail philosophy: I used to bite my nails ALL the time but then I started painting them again and I realized I didn’t like super short nails so I tried my hardest to stop biting them. I quit a nasty habit and I like having a fair length of pretty, painted yet natural looking nails!

Nail philosophy: My Grandmother, mother, and step-mother did nails for years. My Grandmother had a salon for 35 years where she did nails and I grew up in that environment. I’ve always loved painting my nails. She even had her own line of makeup and polish named after me and my sister. I believe in wearing your nails as you’d like—if you want lots of glitter or wild designs, then go for it. If you like classic, then do it. I believe in taking care of my nails and I need to do a better job.
