The Manicure Files: Great Work, Andy!!!

How's about a little fluff? Ok, I got ya, boo. I got my nails done Saturday, and I super duper LOVE them! I've been at odds with my digits for years because I've always felt that I had "man hands". My auntie gave me a complex about my hands in my teens, pointing out my "blunt nails ". My nail beds are short you see, so I need long nails--grown out just past the quick at the least--to add daintiness to my paws. (If you're uninitiated in regards to nail bed length, Google it.) Eighties supermodel Kara Young and FLOTUS Michelle Obama have the hands I wish I'd been born with.




Going polish-free is really not an option for me. I've tried so many different things to keep me in the girls' club when it comes to my hands: Long acrylic can't-type-or-wipe-my-butt-properly nails, stiletto shape (SO ghetto, imo), and the style that I've found suits me best, "squoval". My boy Andy did me up right after I showed him a pic that I cribbed from Sally Hansens' Facebook page.



I brought my own polish to the salon, NYC Colors in Wine Bar--$1.97 at the Wal-Mart, and I am quite pleased with the finished product. I should also mention that this look only cost $15--$18, if you count my tip! WOOT!
