My Black Nails (Pic)
In celebration of finally growing out my own natural nails after years of acrylic abuse I treated myself to a bottle of OPI Black Onyx! It's AWESOME....I do not know how long I ca keep them at this length so I will enjoy them as long as I can...

Re: My Black Nails (Pic)
What did you do to grow your nails out? Use any hardening nail polishes? I'm in the process of doing the same but my nails keep chipping at the end.

I use Sally Hansen Hard as Wraps -ALWAYS, That stuff really works well for me. I give myself a full manicure every week and always keep polish on them. Good luck with your nails too

Re: My Black Nails (Pic)
you inspired me to buy sally hansen hard as wraps. i had some colored versions before but i finally got the clear to use as a base coat and i must say it actually is working for me.. sall hansen works better for me in general than say nail envy.

Im glad it works for you too!  My best results have been with Hard as wraps as my base coat , 2 coats of color and then Sally's triple Gel coat over the top....I can keep a manicure for over a week!
