Hello. I am the nail biter in the pictures! :o
I'd bitten my nails for years for as long as I can remember but was determined this year was when I was going to break the habit. I am getting married in September and have always longed for beautiful nails.
I have tried numerous times to grow them and failed miserably each time. I've tried home false nail kits and even had a friend apply acrylics (she was still learning bless her) and they all fell off with a little help from my teeth after a few hours.
I could never imagine showing my nails to a professional to fix, always wanting to grow them to a respectable length first before having enhancements applied. Two salons even turned me down saying they couldn't help!! :cry:
Thats when I joined this site, to see if there was rally anyone out there able to help. Taking some of your advice I google'd 'Nail tech swindon' and Vetty's site popped up.
She has done an amazing job! Looking at those 'before' pictures makes me feel awful. Its disgusting and I hadn't noticed before as I'd never managed to keep enhancements on for longer than 24hrs. We're now into day 5 and I'm dead chuffed that I have had enough willpower to keep them on, and that thanks to Vetty doing an excellent job, there is nothing for me to start picking at, or trying to make perfect.
That is the key for nail biters like me. Everything has to be perfect or else we will try and make them perfect and end up biting or picking. Everything needs to be smooth and filed.
These enhancements look so natural hardly anyone has noticed (which is great for me at work - i am likely to be told off about them you see) and good because I don't feel self conscious if that makes sense.
Thanks Vetty! See you next week :hug:
