Getting a manicure in Japan can be quite costly, but when you see the elaborate and intricate designs with the additional bells and whistles (and I almost mean that literally) for your tiny nails, I'd say your money is well spent.However, you don't have to go to a salon to get a professional look. You can purchase pre-made nail art kits or if you are feeling adventurous and crafty you can do it yourself. A friend of mine, who does nail art as a hobby, really makes it look easy.
Do it yourself!
Nail art, not just for the hands, is also popular to wear on your toes.
I really appreciate this form of art! It's very creative and unique. I can see why people might find Japanese nail art to be tacky. On the contrary, I think it is very trendy. It would be cool to see this art form internationalize. Unfortunately because I play sports, I can't really have mine done...
What do you think about Japanese nail art? Trendy or Tacky?
Various designs.
