Yes! Everyone always asks me if I got them done somewhere - YEARS of practice!

Nope, and that's part of the reason why I never do it!

I just figured out how to do them right! I was totally holding the brush wrong before and they would be horrible.

I'm good at it. I just hate waiting around for them to dry completely.

Heck no. I usually don't paint my nails. I'm terrible. What's sad is that I'm a painter. I paint canvases as a hobby and I'm pretty darn good at it.
I guess it doesn't translate to nails.

I'm really good at it! Years of being too cheap for professional manicures has finally paid off

I'm actually not bad! Whenever I go for a pedicure, they ask me where I went last to have my nails done. They're always pretty shocked when I say I did my toes myself!

I'd say I'm pretty good at it! Definitely have improved over the years. I have a nail polish obsession too, so I like to change them a lot. I can't reach my toes anymore so those are not in their best shape right now

I used to be awful at it, but then I found that the nail polish I used made a huge difference! A better quality one goes on so much easier and smoother, and with a little practice it can look like a pro!

I'm not great, and mostly only paint my toes anyway. And even then, it's when I'm desperate and haven't been able to get a pedicure.

I love doing my nails! I especially love doing cheetah print. No fail design!

I complimented a friend on her nails the other day and she said she did them her self. Her secret is to do it messy, then jump in the shower and scrape the skin areas afterward to remove the paint.
I'm horrible at doing my fingers, but ok at my toes.

@stine_ciro: that is what I do too!! The polish comes off so easy in the shower and no one knows any different!
Eta: I don't try to do them messy, but if it happens I know it will come off in the shower.

I am pretty good at it! I learned a tip from a friend in college, which is the paint messy, scrape off in the shower. Works like a charm especially on pedicures!
