How to do nail art at home?

Follow this easy steps
First:  Equip yourself: Before you begin make sure to be prepared before you start all you need is

Pedicure Chairs ( brand new or pedicure furniture will do)
Nail polish remover
·         Nail file
·         Nail buffer
·         Cuticle Remover
·         Cuticle Cream or Moisturizer
·         Brush
·         Nail gel
·         Tweezers
·         Cute Stickers
·         Ear buds
Nail colors of your choice


Second: Pick your design

Surf the net and look up for the nail art design that you want, if this is your first time to create a nail art, be sure to make it simple so none of your resources will be wasted and even if the design that you chose is simple it’s also important to get it right. There’s no point of picking a design that you can’t actually create. Just go for some simple polka dot designs or some cute stickers for your nails. Simple designs are easier.

Third: Start with a clean canvass

Make sure to clean your nails with a nail polish remover before you start designing your nails to take out any dirt of any previous nail polish, then soak your nails in warm water and scrub them using a brush. If you have any cuticle problems apply some cuticle moisturizer on your nails and let it moisturize your cuticles. Then use a cuticle remover and gently remove the cuticles.

Fourth: Shape
To achieve an awesome nail art is a good looking shape. The shape of your nail should imitate the shape of your nail bed. If your nail bed is round, then file your nails to perfect round edges.

Fifth: Protect your skin around your nails
Before you start designing your nails, just put some tapes on both sides of your nails and at the bottom. If you don’t have a tape simply apply petroleum jelly. This will keep the nail polish from dripping on the sides of your nails

Sixth: Begin with a base coat
Start with a base coat. This prepares your nails for the nail color to make it even. This will help your nails from chemicals in the nail color, Use a nail color that has hardening and strengthening properties. A base coat also helps to keep your polish a little longer.

Seventh: Use the nail color of your choice
Use the nail color for the design that you chose to imitate and apply two coats of it. The tip is always started at the center of your nails, then fill in the sides afterwards. Two coats of nail polish are better than one because it will ensure that your nail color will last a little longer.   

Eight: On to the add-ons
If your going to put stickers on your nails prepare a nail gel. Apply right amountof nail gel on the back of the sticker. Then carefully place the sticker on your nail using a tweezers If the nail gel is overflowing it means that you put too much nail gel. If this ever happens Use an ear bud to press it down and use it to remove excess glue on your nail.
