She’s tough as nails — and she shows it.
A woman on TikTok has revealed how she navigates life with her extraordinarily long and bejeweled acrylic nails.
”A lot of people ask me if my nails are heavy and how I work with them,” said Maryah, who goes by @nailsbyry_ on the app. “But honestly, once you start wearing them, you gain all this finger muscle, and it doesn’t feel heavy at all.”
In a clip uploaded on Jan. 3 with over 1.3 million views, the nail enthusiast explains her desire to have long nails with 156 charm attachments.
“This is my longest set yet, they literally as long as my torso,” she said.
Despite the length, Maryah brags about her abilities to do daily tasks such as cooking and taking care of her four children, including her newborn.
“If I can take care of a baby with these nails, what makes you think I can’t do anything else?” she adds.
The nail artist even admitted to using her nails as cooking utensils when stirring dishes in the kitchen.
Although impressed with her ability to do so much with her nails, TikTokers couldn’t help but notice the dark-colored substance underneath her nails.
“What was the brown undernails,” questioned one person.
“Is that dew dew,” asked another.
“We listen, and we judge,” confessed a watcher.
Maryah answered looming questions about her cleanliness by sharing how she maintains her hygiene with the help of her family.
“I get often is how I wipe my a–,” she admitted. “I can use a bidet and when I make a mess, my sister doesn’t mind helping and clean my nails – like any good sister would do.”
In the clip, she demonstrated how she cleans her nails in the kitchen sink using a nail tool and soap.
“Y’all act like nail cleaning brushes and soap don’t exist,” she said.
