My 17th wedding anniversary gift!

Spent a long time looking for the perfect ring and found one on eBay. Got it made and was delivered to me recently! I love it so much I bought the band after I got the ring (still being made). I was going to wear a previous band with it but it didn’t look good.

This ring is a 4.50CT radiant cut and the main stone is 4.06 in 14k white gold

My last ring was a matching set with a 1.50 cut cornered rectangular modified brilliant lab diamond.

I’m so in love with this ring, I never want to take it off! Even though it gets caught in my long curly hair a lot!

My ring size is a 4.75, I’m part of the tiny hands club lol. If you have tiny hands, don’t shy away from big stones! I thought it would be too big for my petite hands. It is not!

I thought these were the best acrylic nails I’ve gotten in a hot minute. Be real with me.

I got these nails done last Saturday and I have already broken 4 nails! I thought they were perfect and so thin that they looked natural (as far as the thickness goes) and I was so happy! Monday I broke my pointer finger on my left hand. I was doing laundry and it got stuck between the drum and body of the washer. I thought, ok I’m an idiot this was my fault. Then today, I broke 3 nails on my right hand! First my thumb on my right hand had a crack so I babied it, then it broke opening a ziplock bag. Ok. So then I was cleaning an broke my middle finger, then I gave my husband a high five, joked that a nail broke and saw my pointer finger was broken.

Give it to me straight these are too thin right? This was a new salon I went to. These nails were previously white and thick as hell. Never broke. I went on vacation, packed and unpacked a car by myself and never broke a single nail.

The hot pink nails are what was done with the fill at the new salon. I paid for the fix and tipped well. I’m adding a photo of the before nails that I dragged through the trenches and never had a single crack or break. The whiteish chrome nails, are the before nails.

How do I handle this with the salon? Am I being too rough or are these too thin? I hate confrontation so I want to make sure I’m not the one at fault before I go ask them to fix it.
