Black tips with Pink & Green wire

Hi ladies,

Heres another one for you, now i've seen the photo's the nails look quite bulky so tomorrow i will be thinning them out lol

Just wanted to see what you thought of these, they were very difficult to as i've used black tips with very thin bits of pink and green wire that i bought from hobbie craft embedded in the acrylic.

The wire was not very co-operative but i got ther in the end and i think they look very affective.

So ignore the shape thickness (its funny as they don't look that thick and miss shaped in the flesh) tell me what do you guys think?

I like the design Kirsty, although I think you can get tiny glitter strips which give a similar effect and may be easier to work with.

Kirsty, I think your use of colour is great. There's something about black that really brings out the flecks of color.
The overall design, I love.

Just need to say that there are a few air bubble problems going on in the L&P itself, and maybe the tips are a little too far down the nail IMO.

Other than that, cracking job.
Well done!

Now this is the kind of thing that makes me want to rush out and train as a nail tech. I think they look fab!

I'd wear these in a flash.
I've used lazer strips before, and they are VERY fiddly.
I do uv gel.. and find with uv gel, it's near impossible.
Maybe once I learn L&P, they might be easier to work with.

Please keep sharing.
They're lovely

I know that black has been the in thing lately with nails, and personally I hate black on nails, but these look hot. Really like them a lot. (I am a poet, and didnt know it!)
Great job.

I know what your saying Rachel i have never worn black on my nails but for some reason i love these!!!! and black actually doesn't look that bad on me, thought it would make me look like death lol.

Thanks for all your fab comments, what a bunch of lovely ladies

well done they look great very original idea, but noticed the air bubbles too and agree that the tips are alittle too far back on the nail bed.
Black is a hard colour to work with as it tends to stay your brush if you dont clean it out and you can carry it through in to zone 2 and 3
think you`ve done a good job with your pics
