What Acrylic Nails Taught Me

                                      

As you seen, if you follow me on Instagram~ BeautyxSteph ~ that I got acrylic nails nearly two weeks ago. As it was my first time doing so, I was so excited! This nail biter was finally gaining claws. There are both pros and cons to getting acrylics. I certainly know more about nails now more than I ever did!

Length 
The longer the nails, the better they may look but is it worth limiting daily activities? Even though I have the 'manageable' length there are still some acts I can't do! Buttoning up my shirt for school has become a real pain let me tell you.

Natural Nails
Even though they can destroy your natural nails from continuous application and such, I have no urge to bite my nails which is unusual for me because I always feel like biting my nails! Maybe this is the start of a beautiful friendship with my nails. 

Shape
I never realised there are so many different styles of nail shapes.Coffin, Almond, Stiletto..... Shall I continue? Maybe not. I prefer the coffin shape to show off my slim fingers.

Regrowth
Only after nearly two weeks, I am seeing major growth and it tears me up. I drives me crazy to see acrylics that are in badly need of refilling. It's not a pretty sight in my opinion. 

I think after this experience, I will wait a while before I will get nails again as I think the nails will need nourishing time.
