Press-on Nails?
When I dress I love to use press-on nails (Kiss brand usually) to make my hands look a bit more feminine. How about you?
Some CDs have difficulty finding press-on nails that adequately cover their own nails. I’m fortunate that I have relatively small hands and my own nails aren’t that wide. So I have a wide range of choices in nail color and length. For some reason though, I’m a sucker for longer, red nails. Yes, I do have some shorter ones. And some pink or French manicure style press-ons. I try to select a style, color and length that compliments my outfit and is suitable for the occasion.
Some Things Are Harder
My normal guy nails are nothing special. I do get a manicure every two weeks combined with a pedicure every second visit. But I just get a normal guy manicure with clear polish. By the way, nobody has ever mentioned the fact that I wear clear polish on my nails in guy mode. If you haven’t had a manicure you are missing a fun experience.
In guy mode, I don’t have to think about how to do things with guy nails because they are my everyday reality. But I find that in girl mode, when I use the press-on nails I need to make adjustments. Trying to pick up something small off a hard surface can take several attempts. Using a touch screen device sometimes requires tapping with a knuckle instead of a fingertip. Those are just a couple of examples of things I’ve learned to do by trial and error. I think the biggest issue is that using press-on nails is an abrupt change for us. We don’t get to learn as our nails grow over time or deal with them day-to-day as women do.
Still, I enjoy seeing feminine looking nails when I’m dressed. Just looking at them on the steering wheel driving or when I’m picking up my beverage at a restaurant – those are some of the different sensations that I enjoy experiencing when being JJ.
