Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Hi! I'm newer to the Fediverse and brand new to Beehaw. I've used Reddit for years, but I'm seeking greener shores as big tech has gotten real weird.

When I'm not reading, attempting to be a guitarist or fooling with fountain pens, I like to paint my nails! Do I color in the lines? No. Do I do a perfect job? Also no. But I pick fun colors and always, always, always add glitter. Did you color your nails? I wanna see!

(Side bar, I low-key wish the Fediverse had more places for beauty inspo. Let's see pretty nails, hair and outfits, please!)

Your shaping is perfect. I get annoyed every time I try to grow mine out.

Have not done my nails in a while, but I like to do lily and fox stickers. They stay cute and they're on permeant 'sale' for like 3$ per pair. I get 2 manicures our of a pair since my nails are short enough.

Shaping is very tedious. but I try to keep things the same shape. I keep hearing about stickers. Might have to take the plunge one day.

Some are very expensive. But lily and fox are cheap, so if you mess them up who cares. And they last much longer than polish for me. They have lots of styles, including tons of glitter. And they're removed with lemon water and then nail polish for any remains. So they're pretty nice on the skin. (I have sensitivity issues to a lot of nail products)
