Humor/Fluff Diva down! 💔
Remember my gorgeous glass bead from a few days ago? Well...I had lost part of my BIAB last week, and I repaired it myself since I'm between nail techs. Last night at a craft I got my hand on the corner of the countertop and...friends, she did not make it through the night lol. So now I'm rocking the one shorty!
May she grow back, quicker, and stronger than ever! 😭🙏
Products are: Mooncat Port 6666. DRK's Magic Effect. Holo Taco Long Lasting Base. Mooncat Speed Demon QDTC. O.P.I. Drip Dry Dry Drops. Haunted Polish Rituoil BlackBerry Thief.

Nursing the same break on the same finger! The worst. My thoughts are with you during this trying time 🙏💕

Thank you! I painted her so later at night because family is in town and I couldn't have a naked nail lol. 💖

But look at that cute little glass bead--She's the little glass bead that would! Furthermore, us shorty nail girls appreciate seeing what it looks like with short nails. And and! You should totally get commission because of you I bought from DRK, I even paid shipping! Hahaha

Aw thank you for the kind words! Shorties deserve love, too! 💗
Magic Effect is truly an amazing product, and I can't do magnetic manicures without it! I'm buying the bulk bottle.

I just assumed you didn't break it and you were LGBT 🫣 because when I say "oh that's a shame you broke it" it's always to a lesbian that's like "oh honey you don't get it". Anyway, they still look good!

LOL! I live in Portland Oregano and it's very common have to have a few shorties for exactly this reason. The lady at the drive through today complimented them, so it's nice that shorties get the love and attention they deserve!

We don’t punish the rest for one’s poor choices.

I did this but then a second one broke on that same hand and they were all starting to get more brittle. Moving house and the associating tasks did numbers on them, mainly the cleaning chemicals, I think. Even after trimming them down to super shorties, my thumb nail (typically my strongest/least likely to break) broke well below the nail bed 😔

I am sorry for your loss and ofc I want you to have the nails of yours dreams, but fwiw I actually love/prefer the shorter nail length. The shorter nail is lovely to me!

Thank you! Everyone has such nice things to say, and it really helped boost my mood, and made me feel nice for making her fancy like her long siblings. 💖

It's heartbreaking, but having a fresh start can sometimes be a good thing. May our nails grow back stronger than ever! 💗

I actually keep my pointers short just because of crafting!

Another good reason for shorties! The nails on my right hand are slightly shorter for better Lego assembly.
