Busta Flow Nails
I love my nails this week. Each one is different and a new creation, as Jennifer, the artist, just does whatever she feels. I told her I wanted crazy nails and this is what I got.
A few years ago, I was in the salon admiring another woman’s nail art. I said I hadn’t seen the design on the boards, and she said “Sometimes I just pick some colors and tell Jennifer to busta flow.” This intrigued me.
Then I saw another woman a while later, with even more awesome nails, a different bold design on each nail, and she told me she doesn’t even pick the colors, she just lets Jennifer do her thing. I asked Jennifer about that, and she said “I’ve been doing her nails for ten years.” Kind of like, I don’t think you and I are ready for that yet.
Evidently we have now reached that place in our nail relationship, and I am so elated.
Via What I Wore Today
Starfishies! Based on this manicure! I never ever want to take these off, I am so in love with them. But all credit for the idea goes to Mr.Candiipants and her ridiculously awesome skills.
Via Arrested Nails!
I made a tutorial! I hope this is something that possibly helps people, because I know some people said they wanted to try out my stippling gradient nails.
Okay, so words to go with the pictures:
First you need to paint your nails with which ever color you like. In my original nails I chose a black base, but I like white much better. Then, using a tiny dotting tool (or a needle, possibly a toothpick, I used a #18/0 spotter brush) make a bunch of dots near the tip of your nail, so many that barely any of the base color shows through. You can use nail polish for this, but I chose to use acrylic paint. After that keep working in sections, using less and less dots and making the sections ever so slightly bigger until you reach your cuticle. If you have long nails you could probably stop before the cuticle, or you could just make the sections bigger. I like to do four sections, but you could do more or less depending on how gradual you want the gradient.
If there’s any confusion please let me know and I’ll try to clarify!
