This one's for the ladies!
Ladies,
Does this interest you? I guess it's outrageously expensive, so of course my wants her piece of the pie! If you saw this available at a reptile show, would you want it, and if so, what do you think you'd be willing to pay for it. You know, if you DIDN'T have unlimited access to free raw materials. Lol

Re: This one's for the ladies!
In a nutshell, women are using real snakeskin to laminate fingernails. Put it on over whatever polish you wish, for a nice little hue, and since the snakeskin is somewhat transparent, the color kinda comes through. I think it looks pretty cool actually!
Please don't take my Man Card again!

What about on your natural nails? I promise, no snakes were injured to make this look. They're using shed skins.

Re: This one's for the ladies!
I heard of this a while ago. I actually think...it's gross *lol* I don't wear polish or have fake nails (i'm too rough with my hands to make it last, and i just don't get fake nails...it's such a waste of money in my opinion!...though sometimes they DO look nice..)
I don't know how i would have felt about this before owning snakes...but all i can think of when i see this is the couple times my snakes have shed, and pooped right after...and the shed got in it...or the time my hognose shed and got nasty smelling spit all over this head of his shed *lmao*
So i see this and think..."snake stink!" hehehe

Re: This one's for the ladies!
Thanks for sharing this! I have been doing nails for 16 yrs and I do my own with acrylic topcoat so my nails don't break. My nails are 1/2 inch long right now, my nails, not fake tips.
The artist doesn't use actual snake skin, she uses 2 sizes of nylon mesh to create the appearance of snake skin. It isn't possible to create the snake skin appearance using actual snake skin because the paint would damage the shed and the scales would not be visible after painting over the shed. No, I haven't tried it but I do know how the mechanics of the mediums work.
I might be interested in the look if I was in my full Harley gear and riding or maybe on Halloween, but other than that, it's not my style.
A real nail artist would not use actual snake skins or other previous live mediums because of the health issues they will cause. It is extremely unsanitary and can cause fungus to grow on your nails among other things. **Cringes at the thought**

Re: This one's for the ladies!
I am a big fan of fingernails, but not for looking at.
