Bubble nails have been taking over Instagram lately and they are causing a lot of head scratching because of how awkward they look. Why is this a trend that people are actually following? Who is the person who started this nail art epidemic? How do you text with these 3D nails? So round, so confusing.
How does one create bubble nails?
1. In order to get this strange look, a nail technician starts with a ball of acrylic on the middle of the nail.
2. Then he or she stretches the acrylic around the nail until it reaches the ideal hump form.
3. It can be a difficult and long process because the curve of the acrylic needs to be perfect.
Is it really worth it?
