Upper nails whatever mood I'm in.

I never did acrylics or gels. Been in the industry [hair] since 1965, but never really cared for manicures. These girls with their long and artistic nails. I love seeing them, but for me not practical.

The guy across the street is complaining about his hair. I would help these people out, but not with this viral thingy happening.

I been doing my own hair since I got my license. One fortunate instance in this stupid shutdown.
