Newspaper nails!

Suuuuper easy, paint your nails any color that would contrast well with black ink. When dry, put a top coat on and wait until very dry.

Once dry, grab rubbing alcohol and pour it in a shot glass or something like that. Have precut pieces of newspaper ready a little bigger than the size of your nails. The fresher the newspaper the better the transfer. Dip your finger in the rubbing alcohol for about 5 seconds doing only one at a time, then bring your finger out and place the newspaper piece on it and hold it gently but firmly on your nail, pressing the paper down everywhere on your nail. Then pull off, allow to dry for a few minutes then put a top coat on!

Another take on the fish tail braid!

I love the fishtail braid so I wanted to do something with it besides all my hair in a braid. So the half up fishtail braid with a twist! It's super easy:
Step one: take the hair you want up and have two sections and loosely twist each so you have the twist look.
Step two: Make sure it's centered (I like the messy look so I didn't want it centered, which is perfectly fine!)
Step three: fish tail braid the hair, (if you don't know how to fishtail braid I have a tutorial in another blog post)careful cause your arms will get tired!
Step four: pull the hair away from the center of the braid so it has a chunkier effect. Be careful not to pull the braid apart though!
Step five: put a clear elastic on the end and there ya go!

Just a few nails I tried, tried being the key word.

Remember that trying was emphasized. I was bored one day and didn't have enough time to actually get it done. More to come!
