Got Junk?

It's 12:43am (Eastern) and I'm up researching mua techniques. Got to keep learning, but back to this post. I just remembered that I wanted to tell you Beauties about my Junk Nails. 
Chillin with no makeup on.

I was on Facebook one day and an Ad for "Junk Nails" popped up. It was a picture of the most interesting nail art I'd seen in a very long time. So I went into research mode and discovered quite a bit, and after all of one hour of research I was set on getting my nails done.
(when I use the term research, I am referring to my own Internet digging. Unless otherwise noted.)
I live in Washington, DC and it's typical to see nail art. Being in the makeup artist business you'll get your fair share of seeing nail art at photo shoots.  I've been on a lot of photo shoot set but have never see any nails like the ones pictured in the Facebook ad.

A close friend of mine had recently visited a nail salon in our area that applies Junk Nails. I was able to find them on Facebook and setup an appointment. The full set of acrylic gel nails with 10 designs and 2 nails designed with 3d junk cost me $50. As you can see I went with a fun and colorful mua theme.

I was instructed by my talented nail tech that my nails would last for about 3-4 weeks, and I should keep away from lengthy interactions with water.

What do you think??
