#manicure #extremityfetish On Friday I was grumbling about having to do what's called "the big chop," meaning going all the way back to short nails. This is entirely my own fault for over-scraping my cuticles a few months ago and accidentally gouging the nails themselves...
... such that a groove has been growing out ever since and recently reached the end, so the nails are starting to break off at the nail line. Anyway, enter Best Ex, who's weirdly good at giving me mani inspo, and who said: "Return to your dyke roots!" Bam. Idea: lavender.
And because I'm working with less real estate, useful to pick a polish that looks good on the middle of the nail and doesn't require much of a tip. Hence, a magnetic. (Maybe also a nod to early dyke days? LOL) Clair de Lune by Mooncat. Let the regrowing begin!
