So there's not much to say about this.
All you need is nail polish with a fin tip brush.
I bought mine at the dollar store.


this is my Tiffany's box design


this is just a design that I once had done at a nail salon.

It's pretty much just a matter of trial and error.
It's helpful to practice designs on a piece of paper before trying them on your nails.

Braided Headband

This could be the easiest, hair trick of all time!
And this time I have instructions :)

Step 1:
Take a chunk of hair from behind your ear. A smaller chunk of hair will make for a skinner braid. A thicker chunk will make a fatter braid.


Step 2:
Pull the chunk up over your head and make sure it will fit around your head before you start braiding.
When you get it right, start braiding with piece over your head to insure there will be no tug and pull.


Step 3:
Once the braid is finished, pull it across your forehead and bobby pin it behind your other ear.


Step 4:
Push the braid up onto your head and enjoy ! :)

Waterfall Braid

I'm sorry that this is ANOTHER youtube link, BUT this is how I learn best !


I absolutely adore this waterfall braid, it's so cute and there's so many ways to style it.

It's a little hard to see in this picture but I tied my waterfall braid back into a regular braid.

Fishtail Braid

Okay, so, this is my new addiction ! It's pretty easy to do once you get the hang of it and it's easiest to do on your own hair.

Tip: Smaller pieces make the braid look better !


I know I seem like a slacker by posting all these youtube links, but I'm still new to this blogging thing.

Good luck ! :)

A super fun and groovy nail design. This is a little time consuming and may take some practice, but the outcome is well worth it!
