taekwondo nails

Got a comment from Suzi (Texas) some time back about black and white nail designs as she is having a black belt exam in taekwondo and it’s a joke that girls have themed nails…I think it’s really cool.

She liked the polka dot design done in blue and white and asked me about it.

Well, I did reply and said I’ll post just a wee bit more designs with b/w colours.

Suzi, hope you’ll enjoy the designs

All the best for your exams.

Black and white designs: French, polka dots, ribbon and tuxedo

Pedicure....I did both feet but just showing one. Don't mind me, I just feel the need to clarify

Manicure! I shall draw a bow tie atop the buttons next time!

Ending post with a random Ruffie Comic

CNY-Galaxy Nails

Made a comment on twitter that all the manicurists were all busy posting their clients’ photos but didn’t seem to post any of their own nails. This includes myself even though I didn’t really have clients…LOL

Did my nails at 12 midnight on Chinese New Year’s Eve.

Design was inspired by Christopher Kane’s Resort 2011 collection with galaxy prints.

Though Mama said “Looks like Indian nails.”

Ok. End! Happy Chinese New Year!

CNY-Joyful Nails

Joy found me online and booked me for CNY nails since October 2011.

Thanks for being so nice and patient! Hope your nails lasted after the WuXi PaiGu.

She asked for the design I did when I celebrated the regeneration of my toenails.

But requested for the white base to be changed to something less stark.

Had fun chatting with her and experimenting with the colour combinations.

Pink base (OPI A Dozen Rosa) overlay with white glitter (Maquillage) and roses nail art.

Closeup of nails The little crystal was her input and it looked great!

Thumb closeup.

Pedicure was done the same way with design on the big toe.

CNY-Rainbow tips!

Made these for TPP. Hope she is doing well

She wanted something colourful for CNY.

Rainbow thumb tip, the rest were done with white half moons with gradient...

Gradient colours follow those on the thumb tips.

CNY-Wah! So Red!

Nail tips for Mrs Ho, who said painted nails can’t last till CNY cos she is going to make some yam thing.

Red base with gold leaves. Flowers and butterflies were her request.

Mrs Ho remarked "Wah! So red!"

The original colour was more maroon (left) but the top coat made it real RED (right).
