I HAVEN’T HAD THEM ON SINCE& MISS THEM TERRIBLY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great post! Lots of nail art ideas for short nails. It would be nice if you give step by step instructions for some of them.
Really awesome but find to get one to get the work exactly done as it more so in my country ?
I’m getting short nails on Friday the first.
and I have so many to choose from.
This website was a perfect way for nail design ideas! I scrolled through them and found my favorite (29) so then I went to the nail salon, I showed the lady the picture I had in mind, and she did the exact design!?
We are glad to hear that! š
