First time getting acrylics. Why so expensive???

First time getting acrylics. Why so expensive???

I don’t get my nails done often, but I’m 35 weeks pregnant and decided to treat myself. Normally I just get gel or dip. Tbh my Vietnamese nail tech was talking about acrylics and I couldn’t really understand her and I was just like yeah sure I’ll try them. Anyway, this is a base set with my natural nails underneath (no lengthening), single color, no designs. It literally took her like 30 minutes.

I’m wondering why this cost $95??? And she said fills cost $55. I’m not even in a HCOL area! Did I get ripped off or is this normal for acrylics that aren’t fancy?

Baby measuring big

FTM here. I just had a growth scan at 28w5d and baby girls’ estimated weight is 3 lb 9 oz which is 94th percentile. She’s also measuring 2 weeks ahead. My OB said she’s going to order growth scans every 4 weeks now just to monitor her size lol. Everything is so far (blood work, ultrasounds, etc.) has been “perfect” says my OB.

Just wanted to see if anyone has experienced this or if any wanted to share their similar stories!
