Anonymous asked: Have you ever use fake nails. And if you do, is there any place where they sell round shape nails? I have only seen square, sometimes it gets annoying to shape them round all the time.

samwiththehair asked: so what's the deal with cuticles? I always see pictures of nails where the polish looks like it just bled from their skin down the nailbed in one smooth coat. How does one accomplish this? Push back the cuticles? Trim them? With what? Does it even matter?

jbberg01 asked: How long do you generally let your bottom coat of polish dry before you start with the designs? I always mess mine up because they feel dry to the touch, but they wind up being still malleable and sticky when I put on a top coat! Thank you, you're awesome :)

Products to use?
