    What are you doing with your nails for the wedding and for bms?

    Are you going for classic French manicure? extensions? or something a bit more fancy?
    Would you pull a bridezilla if your bms had there nails done the "wrong" way, How far before the wedding are you having them done?

    I found this and loved it but have no idea how they do it, would I have to find a specialist?

    We all had classic French. My sister and I got the 3 week everlasting polish done 2 days before the wedding and my best mate just stuck on falsies the morning of the wedding.

    I'm getting fake ones a couple of days before the wedding, mine are so weak they never look nice so going to have to be done if I want them to look good in photos. It will be classic french manicure though I've seen some lovely decorated ones like lace effect tips for the wedding so maybe that.

    The bm's can do what they like with their nails - I doubt if I would notice - the only thing I'm bothered by is the dress colour and a natural make up look (oh and they better not be orange!!)

    Im having just a lovely simple french manicure, not having extentions as my job doesnt allow them, and would be a waste of money. as for my bridesmaids i dont mind they having whatever they want... aslong as it blends with my colour scheme and nothing to out there.

    Me and my chief bridesmaid will have French manicure style as I love that look and think it's very elegant (if not done towie style!!) and because my other bridesmaids are younger I'm going to buy them each a nail varnish to match their dresses x

    I'm having gel (just the overlay), I have a gel manicure every 2 weeks anyway. May go for a french manicure with some sparkle over the top or a nice pale pink/nude colour.

    I'm defiantly going to have some colour/sparkle. My own nails grow pretty good and I'm well known at work for my twice weekly nail varnish change. All which I do myself.

    I have to have colour I can't do French manicure even though it looks elegant and beautiful it's just not me.

    Lana I can't say for sure how they created that effect but I get similar results using the water droplet mode and or plastic bag screwed up( sounds crazy but I know what I mean)

    I will be getting a gel tip overlay over my nails as my nails are weak and break easy I catch them and they rip I am planning on growing my nails from 2014 buying nail stengthner and will apply that u think daily or weekly and hopefully my nails will grow strong and grow long then I can have my normal nails for my wedding I have a design or two I want just need to decide which one I want planning on getting nails done either a day before it two days before the wedding
    2bm will have a normal manicure and wear the varnish I tell them to wear as there nail strong and long and pretty
    Then my moh and 2other Bms will av gel nails with tips I believe and match the colour to the dress that I choose
    Then my last bm I need to convince her to try gel nails as she scared to Incase they ruin her nails so may take her to get her nails done before with me to try them out and she will wear any colour I choose she bit fussy
    Then my mother n mil mil will just get a manicure and colour and my mum gel overlay and colour

    French... With a lace Design painted on in pearl on ring finger probably. Bms will be instructed the same except black lace on ring finger.
    The top nails look like they're airbrush acrylics... but you could see if they're are some galaxy ones online as falseies or wraps.

    PS posted to you wall how to do them... you could practice on false nails and save yourself a fortune. You need small pieces of sponge and all your old nail polishes!
