A Video Of Woman Using Onions As Nail Art Has Gone Viral. It’s Got Many Layers!

It was the first year of college, I had started getting a handsome monthly pocket allowance, and with the new found monies I had been given, I was ready to indulge in a few experiences I had always been in awe of. Nail extensions and art, for instance. So enticed by the product and finish of nail extensions, I delved into the habit of getting my nails done, something I could never really pull back from. Sometimes going for the French tips, to other times experimenting an ombre polish, I knew I was addicted

And while I may have explored everything from getting studs to abstract prints to chrome paint, what I never imagined could be used to decorate my nails was in fact, onions. A vegetable that was recently made use of by a nail artist who ditched the common elements of nail art, to employ onions on her own nails, has recently gone viral on the internet.

Shared on an Instagram page named “ilysmnails”, the video is rather startling, for I could assure you that you would have never witnessed nail art as peculiar as this one.

The artist could be seen using a raw onion and placing it on the nail, furthermore buffing and filing it for a perfect finish. We can then see the nail artist using gel nail polish to secure the onion in its place, all the while making us gasp, for it seems so unreal.

The video ends with the artist making her final finishing touches, where she successfully sculpts the onion on her own nail, with a hint of green. A video that is as eccentric as the idea, has garnered over 4800 likes and a flood of comments, most of which are divided in their opinion of the onion nails. #SnackThat

While some have been left impressed, others have not taken it too well. There also came a few more funny reactions and suggestions from people, who advised the artist to use popcorn, or pineapples the next time around. Meanwhile, we’re having serious thoughts about going all out for our nails the next time around Of course, instead of onions, I’d like them to be replaced with fries..
