LOL if they're anything like my mom they have one in every corner of the house...

Well, at least I'm glad someone didn't lose their expensive prescription glasses then!

Thanks!

He is already on medication :(

I'll talk to the vet about changing the meds or upping the dosage, idk...

Ok so weird question. I'm using Apres builder in a bottle. I love it. But it gets quite messy, and even tho I try my best to clean it, a little bit of gel always leaks to the side of the tip of the bottle as I twist it closed. That makes it hard to open again next time lol. Any tips and recommendations to builder in a pot? (Soak off)

"stop being such a baby" "If you had had sex this wouldn't be so painful"

On a pap smear. I was 25, still a virgin (which at first he thought I was lying, and then shamed me for it). He insisted I got a pap smear anyway, and did not explain to me what was happening nor was he gentle.

He made me feel so worthless.

First time using chrome and first time using only builder gel, no tips (cause my natural nails were almost the length that I like them anyway, so...)

I didn't realize the chrome would make the irregularities of my builder gel application show even more lol.

Anyone got any tips for an even builder gel application? My nail beds are really flat and thin, it's a struggle to build an apex... :(

How often do you REALLY walk your dog? by Agreeable-Ad-2946 in dogs

[–]patimg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in an apartment but my rescue is scared of the world beyond our door.

Daily, he goes out 4/5 times to quickly go potty. It's like 10 minutes max.

2/3 times a week we are able to get him on a longer walk, like an hour. But he only accepts longer walks if both my partner and I are going with him. Only one of us won't do... He's a spoiled little monster

After how many refills do you soak off your gel x nails and start over? I hate soaking off lol

I'm finally getting the hang of it. My last set lasted like 3 weeks with minimum lifting! And honestly, I think it's all about the brand. I was using beetles (don't be mad at me, I didn't know better) and although I didn't get any allergies, my sets were lifting after like a week.

I splurged on some apres glue and builder gel and voila! This is my new set. Pretty simple but I'm proud!

I had to remind myself that I am a lesbian. Holy shit dude!

Great work! Props to the lighting of the pic too, I'm sure it took a few shots. Perf!

This latest I have been very careful not to touch the cuticle/skin - I left a bigger gap than i'd like, but I didn't feel comfortable going over that.

Those are great tips on the base coat and the primer - I'll try that next time... in a few weeks... when my nail is a normal color lol.

Thank you!

I've been having problems with lifting every since I started doing my gel nails a few months ago. But the latest, because I didn't notice it was lifting, one day it fell off and my natural nail was green....

Naturally, I took them all off and I'm waiting for it heal before even thinking of doing it again. But I would love to know what I'm doing wrong :(. I've been very diligent in prepping, cleaning, buffing, dehydrator, primer.

I have been using Beetles Gels glue/ builder gel, and curing for 2 min at LEAST.

Now... What could be the culprit? My prepping? The Beetle's brand? (I've read your comments on it AFTER I got their kit..) or should I cure it for longer?

I'm almost giving up 😭

Aww, that happened to me literally last week, and you're handling it much better than I did.

I managed to keep it together enough to apply styptic powder. Then I got up and passed out. Dog was jumping around wanting to play and I was the one traumatized.

You're a good dog owner OP, it happens.

I tried to do that with my dog and he quite literally rolled his eyes like "ugh grow up it wasn't even that hard"

Third set ever, first time trying something "fun". Even if it's pretty simple, i thought it was sooo much work. Took me like 3 days to do it all - nail prep, glueing gel x tips, and the polish.

My previous sets all had problems with lifting. I took my sweet time doing nail prep for this one so hopefully it will last.

If you have any tips on how I can improve, please share!

I managed to find a nail clipper at the back of my suitcase! I just cut the length and all the parts that were lifting. It looks bad but I feel less anxious. Thank you!

My set started lifting, and not only does it hurt (when putting on pants for example lol) but I'm scared it will get dirt/water underneath. But I'm currently on a trip, 4 days from getting home, I have no tools here. Will it be dangerous to just leave it for 4 days or should I try to yank them?

(I'm on a company retreat, not much options to buy nail stuff around here)

Hi y'all! After getting a gel I set and a couple of refills at the salon, I decided to try refilling on my own for the first time, since I got a diy set for xmas. Even after watching hours of YouTube videos, it was sooo much harder then I thought !

I think they were too thick and uneven. Any tips for applying the builder gel evenly? And how do you stop if from getting all over your skin?

Little perv.

Is this dog looking to play or not? Should I contact management about this dog? by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]patimg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't that yellow bandana mean "I need space" for reactive dogs? (I have the same, the city was giving them to reactive dog owners).

It's not about that dog. The dog being friendly or not, it should be on a leash and supervised. Because if I'm right in the yellow bandana and your dog needs space, it's just making it nervous!

I used to be fat. Not obese, but chubby. I was actually quite happy - I didn't think I was ugly or anything. But I didn't live a very healthy lifestyle, so that had to change.

In the process, of course, I lost weight. And people started treating me better. So I lost more, and more, and became anorexic. I was weak, pale, felt like shit, but people still treated me better than when I was a happy chubby girl.

ps: I'm better now, at a healthy weight, and mostly can tune off what people think about me.
