This is my first time for trying Almond Shape as I saw Fee Wee did so many time before. I have them done my own so they're my bleedy nails. T_T
 
ok first of all nice work.i have recently converted to round/almond shapes and its harder than it looks when your so use to doing square or squoval all the time.
in my opinion i dont think these are quite an almond shape,the sidewalls need to be taken in more as they look abit wide hence the shape towards the free edge area not being sort of pointy/round enough if that make sense?
did you want critique on anything else other than the shape?
 
Yes, please... more and more. How can I make them nicer?

in my opinion the white to pink ratio is not right,there is too much white which makes the nails look unbalanced and top heavy if that makes sense?
this can sometimes be corrected just by making the nail shorter as this reduces the white.
also the cuticle area doesnt look very flush it still looks abit bulky but nothing abit of extra filing wont sort out.
are these white tips? if so i have some pics in my album which i used white tips on a nail biter and on a client that just had short nails i extended the nail beds by applying the white tip by the "ears" and filling in the gap using an opaque powder
i hope this helps:)
 
I would thin them out at the sides and make them a little bit pointier.. And also that red thick skin above cuticle area looks a bit ouch! sore, isn't it?
 
Thank you for all comment... I'll practice more... :twisted:
