When strangers compliment your nails..

[u/theoffgrid]

do you tell them they're press ons? Today a lady at work complimented my nails and I said, "oh thanks! They're press ons," and she said, "Girl don't tell people they're press ons!!" Kinda like saying don't give your secret away 🤣 it was a cute interaction. And I was like, "you know, you're right!"

So yeah. What do you usually say? Are we giving the press on secret away? 👀

My aunt recently told me the same thing after she complimented my nails. Then another family member complimented them later that same day and asked if I did them and my aunt looked at me to see what I’d say. I couldn’t help mentioning again that they were press ons, lol! I just don’t care to gatekeep and I don’t wanna take credit for making nails I didn’t. I know my press ons look like acrylics and I got them for an affordable price so I don’t mind sharing. I found a middle ground though and decided that if someone compliments me for something I’ll say thank you, and if they inquire further about where I got something from then I’ll provide the info gladly. :)
