You know my style swings a bit colorful, how about yours? Would you dare wear yellow on your nails? Or would you say it’s tooooooo GNARLLLLLYYYYY? 😘

Think of me as your online Press-on nail concierge. I get fully downloaded on your style of nails and create them just the way you like. 💅

My therapist told me I need a creative outlet. So, I started making custom tiny masterpieces for other people's hands. It's a win-win, really. You get flawless art, and I get to be a beautiful gnarly soul.

Custom press-ons are the perfect accessory for people who treat their hands like tiny, moving galleries. I pour my whole creative heart into these.

Don't be shy—DM me your craziest idea so your personal concierge can make it happen! All things custom can be found via the Gnarly Boutique link.

Raise your hand if you can't commit to a vibe for more than two weeks. 🙋‍♀️

That's why press-ons are my favorite canvas! Custom painted, easy to apply, and zero commitment to your fleeting aesthetic choices.

If you want nails that match your vibe—no matter how chaotic, cute, or creepy—you've come to the right beautiful gnarly soul!

Think of me as your personal press-on concierge. I absolutely live to spoil my clients and bring your wildest nail dreams to life.

Obsessed with this custom set. Obsessed with my clients. Obsessed with being a beautiful gnarly soul. Let's make art together! I’m your press-on concierge—DM me or hit up Gnarly Boutique.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing my work out in the wild! Check out how incredible this custom set looks on my client. She told me she gets compliments everywhere she goes, and it makes her feel so confident. That's the whole point, right? To have nails that make you feel like your best self.

or am I just obsessed with the Pop-Punk Prom Queen aesthetic? 🤘🖤 Everything about this set scratches an early 2000s itch. It's the perfect mix of 'skate-park rebel' graphics and my personal love for a ridiculous amount of bows. It just proves that you can be cute and still headbang.

I can't be the only one who has trouble finding press-ons that fit my weirdly shaped pinky nail. After years in the biz, I've decided to fix that problem for all of us. I hand-paint every design and make them to fit your nails perfectly—not some generic size kit.

Press-on Nail Artist/ Miranda Leigh @gnarlypressons.bsky.social · 18d

My favorite words to hear are 'Can you do a...' (The weirder the better, honestly.) No idea is off-limits! From coffin to stiletto shapes, or matte to holographic finishes, I'm the concierge who handles it all.

Message me with your wild idea or shop the custom menu at Gnarly Boutique.

Tired of press-ons that pop off or just don't fit your nail beds? Never again! I spoil my clients with free sizing kits to ensure your custom set fits like a glove. Plus, you get to pick your shape, length, and design! It's the full bespoke experience.

The rich magenta and gold with that stunning blue isolated chrome gives off a fun, yet elegant, vibe. The little pearls are the perfect finishing touch. You can't capture the full sparkle in a photo, so trust me when I say these are even more beautiful in person!

Press-on Nail Artist/ Miranda Leigh @gnarlypressons.bsky.social · 22d

I can't get over how well the dental-school-reject teeth paired with the delicate florals. If your favorite aesthetic is 'creepy but make it couture,' then you know the vibe. Which nail is your favorite of this chaotic bunch?

Fresh off the work bench: a new set of x-ray nails! It's a bone-afide work of art. The purple and blue chrome really makes the x-ray details pop and gives them this cool, supernatural glow.
If you like what you see, give this post a little heart or a comment. What's your favorite part of the design?

Thinking back on my years in the esthetics world, it's always been about making people feel beautiful, inside and out. That's the vibe I was going for with this ocean set. It’s like a little escape on each nail, with shimmery blue glitter and the most delicate shells I could find. Yay or Nay?

After 13 years as an esthetician, I know a thing or two about nails that actually last. These aren't your average press-ons. They're a salon-quality manicure, custom-fit just for you, and built to be used again and again. You can skip the salon stress and still have nails that turn heads.
