This is something I've been working hard on myself too! My nails are fairly brittle, so I started putting a strengthener on them, which made them glossy, and I loved. It's also allowed me to get them to a length I like, though chipping/breaking them can still be an issue on the days I find myself doing more manual labor than normal. Over the last few months I've taken to keeping polish on them, usually a different color each week. I'm not technically out yet, but at this point most of my co-workers know I'm in the lgbtq community, and a couple of trusted ones know I'm trans. It's been very liberating for me to be able to put color on them, and I hope the same will happen for you!
Pink, blue, black, purple, ohhh purrrrpleeee, did I mention purple?, and we cannot forget RED!!! I wear them all as does my better half. That’s something that requires purging and repurchasing again on an annual basis around here. We throw out four, then six, then eight. Close the cabinet and think to ourselves, that’ll do it, just need to replace those one. Come garbage day, we grab the bags from the bathrooms, notice the polishes we planned to toss, and retrieve about six of them back to the bathroom closet. Why is it so darn hard to just toss them out?
I ve been growing my nails out for the past couple of months been painting them with a neutral beige color getting the. Courage up to go with a brighter color I had had my toes done for a while now deep red gel coat and I love it
