I'm so excited that I've found an alternative use for my hair dryer. I use it occasionally like maybe twice a year in the winter time to dry my natural hair. A day ago, I decided to paint my nails in the a.m. First I painted my nails with the "
Mineral Fusion" brand of nail polish from Whole Foods. I couldn't help giving it a try after reading a wonderful blog post by
Naptural85. When she stated that it was a carcinogenic free polish and showcased the beautiful colors available, my inner PJ kicked in. It's a non-toxic polish that costs $7.99. I purchased the base coat, the color "Slate" nail polish, and the top coat. I started by adjusting my hooded dryer to table top length. I love this dryer because it sits on an adjustable stand. I then painted by applying one coat at a time, first the base coat, next the color, and then the top coat. When I finished each coat of polish I placed my nails under my hooded dryer to dry before applying the next coat. This is day 2 of wearing "Slate" and I swam on yesterday. After class I noticed one little area where the
polish had chipped, which is on the tip of my left thumb. I don't like chips, and I may try touching up that little area on the tip of my thumb. Hopefully the rest of the color will hold up until the end of the week. I do like the fact that the color is bold and after 2 coats the color looks so rich. This color is also matte, however has this high definition shine at the same time. It's beautiful and I found a beautiful way to dry my nails quickly.
No need to purchase a small nail dryer when my hooded dryer can serve multiple functions. Have you found any alternative uses for your natural hair appliances?
