Damage

Who would have thought that gel nails would be bad for your actual nails?
Not having had my nails done professionally before, i didn't know, but i sure found out when i removed the kitty nails i had done in Japan.
I seriously had to pry the gel off with a sharp object because nail polish remover didn't work, and underneath the gel my nails were broken and brittle.
Some actual nail even came off with the gel. Harsh.
It was still worth it though, having fancy kitty nails, but next time i probably won't keep them on for that long.

I had to put on several layers of polish immediately after the removal, to hide the damage
 
The process
The kitty nails, in case you'd forgotten, or didn't see them the first time around

Allan is working from home today, and even though i planned to go to work, it's hard to go outside in the cold, gray weather, when the inside is full of Allan, Lucifer, warmth, and Nina Simone.
Maybe i'll make it there, and if not, i'm sure that'll be ok too.
