![แฉ [2/4] 12 ก.ค. 67 เจ้าของไวรัลดังในโซเชียล 'ลิลลี่ เหงียน' ฝันอยากเข้าวงการ โดนหลอกสารพัด | GMM25](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/7zntQK2U8-8/mqdefault.jpg)
The fact that you transition your look according to what you're doing / where you're going shows professionalism & maturity - I love your stripper analogy because it's the truth. Blinged-out nails for a video does not have the same appropriateness as blinged-out nails if you work in a law office.
There's definitely a time/place for everything.
Exactly! Same.
Yes ma'am, said perfectly.
perfectly said :)
Even for utility too.. long nails are sometimes difficult to have when dealing with paper / typing in an office setting
Yes💯🌎
I hate that you’re being reduced to how you do and present your nails. Do what makes you happy. I’m proud of you for speaking out and bringing attention to this unfair treatment
It amazes me that people don't understand that when you go to different places you need to look the part. I'm not going to go to my 9 to 5 in an evening gown. I'm not gonna go to a wedding in a pair of cut offs and flip flops. You are not less black because you want to look the part and be appropriate At whatever event you attend. It's sad to me that these people who claim to be so pro black are completely missing the point. Black excellence takes into account time and place. If a black 'woke' person is Preaching about Black Power and can't even read the room they need to start with self improvement above all else.
I'm so sick of all this crap. These are the same people who want us to be so different and yet they're willing to put other black people in a Box instead. Being black is not a monolith and they have Lost this very important concept to their SJW woke nonsense.
I have no place chiming in, but is being ‘woke’ being confused by people as their right to be the mouthpiece of all black people? I am so thankful for all of the things I have learned about a fraction of what it is like to be black, but unless I woke up in your skin (literally) I will NEVER be woke enough to know. Then again, maybe knowing that and accepting and committing to the journey of learning and correcting your misunderstandings IS ‘the real awakening’ to begin with. God I hope so. 🥰❤️
@@KileyOhl The best thing anyone can do is to always treat each person with respect and to not paint large groups of people with a broad brush. Always remember that with individuality people are gonna have different opinions and believes. We need to respect the beliefs of others even if we don't agree with them. Not to call others names and labels because we don't. The problem with 'woke' culture is they want everyone to get on the bandwagon of how they think or feel. They have lost what it means to truly be awakened To the freedom of thought. You can only do the best you can.
Yes sjw woke nonsense does too much damage by using stereotypes to box people in. Its a shame
If you ask me some black people (I am black myself) always making something about “staying woke” when it’s the wrong time tbh because what? It’s not that serious.
@@jussst_peachhhy_3455 That is for sure. Not everything needs to be taken so serious all the time. not everyone has to live in perpetual opposition.
Can we just appreciate how cool this woman is for being able to do her own nails. I certainly can't do what she does.
"I don't have to be a freedom fighter everywhere I go." I felt that in my soul, I get so tired if the expectations.
Your nails are your nails, no one else's. Your life is your life, no one else's. Like...I don't understand why some people think they can come here and tell other people how to live or what to do with their lives. Ridiculous. You just keep doing you. I love your content.
I think it stems from the sense of entitlement people get when they use social media and their freedom of speech, sad
Wait What happen!!
Hey weekend
@Catania Momma Italia the entitlement doesn’t inherently come from their freedom of speech, but the way they present it. It’s one thing to state your opinion, and it’s another to try and impose your view of something onto someone else; basically outright telling someone they should be a certain way. They are fully entitled to their choices and actions, but that entitlement doesn’t extend to the choices and actions of others. You can’t force someone to think the way you think, or live the way you feel they should live.
Same!!! That's pretty much what I just commented!
The fact she’s being attacked for DOING NAILS because of her race is making me loose hope I’m humanity. Literally all she did was do her nails. I love all your videos and it makes my day when you post! Just know that you should always keep going, don’t listen to haters. Always believe and yourself! Have an amazing day! 😘
Super cute nails by the way! 😊
It's like the conversation somehow went to her race, when the initial subject was nails, like I don't understand, I know when I commented on the video it was something like "I woulda just went the nails I had on" yet somehow people turned something like that, into something more like this "As a black person I would've kept my nails the way they were, I wouldn't go ahead and diminish myself and would go in there being unapologetically black", the comment would make sense if that was the topic of the video but people was REACHING
Shes being “attacked” by the people of her own race!!!
@@heyikindalikeyou It happens with every race
I was just trying to say no one should take things out of context and everyone should just be equal and not called out for just doing what they want to do with their life
@@heyikindalikeyou if her main demographic is her race I would assume that would be the ones talking about her
I’m so bummed people gave you crap about the French manicure and the party. Anyone who watches you knows you usually have a different set of nails on one hand, and then a different set on the other. Testing materials for us, that is your work. You guys were going out to an event and wanted to look nice. Love you!
I can’t directly identify with being a black TH-cam creator… but I can definitely empathize with enduring ignorance online from people. I can’t even begin to recount how many times I’ve been “called out” for *”cultural appropriation”* by strangers on social media, every time I wear, do, say, decorate, celebrate (etc) ANYTHING Mexican… despite the fact that I’m *LITERALLY FROM MEXICO!!!* 😆
These kinds of people have been totally brainwashed and haven’t been taught that there’s a VAST difference/separation between someone’s skin color, culture, race, ethnicity, country of origin, behavior (etc).
So I can’t even *BEGIN* to imagine how much BS you get, as a popular online figure!
I know I don’t even need to say it- but just keep being the amazing *YOU* that we all fell in love with watching!
You are a *TRUE ORIGINAL* and don’t need to act in way, except how *YOU WANT TO!*
We will always have your back!
If some people don’t like it, they don’t have to watch!! It’s a massive platform, filled with countless creators for them to go discover! 💖❤️
Perfectly said. Thank you ❤
I agree! Don't like, don't watch. Everyone personally have people they just dislike or prefer not to watch... I don't get the problem. Just leave them alone, and find places you do enjoy to watch!!
People seem to forget that Mexicans aren’t just brown 🙄 Mi madre es guëra y hay personas que no pueden creer que ella es 100 percento mexicana. ¡Tenemos una cultura bellísima!!
And if you acted "too black" they'd say something about that too
What's acting Black?
@@jamiAkos If you dont know what Im referring to it's okay, it's better you don't 😊
@@IvannaperezElkIP123 lmao I love this response I hope you don’t mind if I start using it
@@trinitywade4887 Go right ahead lol
This
People don't want to see others successful. Keep being you, ignore these haters!
Exactly what I was thinking. If she has haters Evie is doing something right. Love her and she is helping so many people learn a selfcare hobby. How is that bad?
Same way I git treat like her in my head I'm like hell no fuck no🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
I'm glad you talked about this. Being yourself is doing whatever you want. You're a lovely person and I love your videos and your vibe
same!!!
Ppl need to understand there's a time and place for everything. You wanted to have a fresh french tip for the country club. Ppl are mad weird and sensitive these days smh. Sorry you experienced that Evie especially over SOME NAILS....THERE NAILS😐
So true. I didn't think the overly sensitive culture would spill over to nails but here we are lol. I typically don't address nonsense like this but it was too much to ignore. Those people need to know you can't just say whatever you want to me.
There really is a time and a place for things. At work I don’t use extra crazy designed nails because people tend to focus on my nails than what I’m saying, it’s distracting apparently. But that’s my choice, I personally decided that. I didn’t do it because of my race or my gender, etc. Do you Evie like you always do. People need to mind their own business and not get into other peoples CHOICES.
Why did I have a feeling someone was going to have something to say about that video as I was watching it lol. People always gotta find something negative to say it’s so sad 🙄
And I think it’s so funny how they’re trying to act like you don’t want black women to express themselves but coming from a black teen girl, your videos have made me want to be more creative with my nails and not be scared of someone judging me. Got me buying all these nail things bc I want to recreate the designs you do. They must not know who they were watching bc nothing abt your channel has ever given shrink down & conform 😵💫
I avoided that comment section because I knew someone was gonna be negative about it
It's also super problematic to assume that classiness is associated with whiteness
That’s the point of why ppl were triggered. She said she didn’t want them too urban insinuating that anything associated with blackness is not classy enough for a country club
@@MsLolaTaylor it's also pretty problematic to associate "urban" with blackness.
I see where you coming from but it's always been associated with whiteness
That's what I was thinking. She did a style typically associated with classiness and professionalism and everyone instantly jumped on her saying she's trying to hide her blackness behind it. I did not know classy, or professional were race-based adjectives. The more you know I guess 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
I tone my nails down all the time depending on where I'm going. I guess it's ok for me because I'm white? Ffs there's so much legit shit to be outraged about, we don't need to invent shit like this on top of it. For the record, your nails are always amazing, sets like the squid game ones (omg so awesome), and sets like the French ones you wore to your party. I don't think either end of the spectrum takes away from who you are. One of the reasons I love watching your videos is that you have such a sunny and vibrant personality that always shines through, changing your nails won't change that.
Wow, sorry you encountered that. People really be reaching!!! It is not unreasonable to dress according to the occassion and I loved the french tip!!! Love your channel and you are definitely inspiring others including myself. Keep up the great work girl. Much love from STL!!!
Reaching so much they be pulling muscles 🤣
@@SomeVedhna Right!!! 😂😂😂
Omg! I had read thru some of those comments on your country club nails vid. I was thinking the whole time, what's wrong with dressing (orrr.. Nailing??🤔😂) for a different vibe? I love the switching up for different vibes of places or ppl! It's NOT being "untrue" to yourself or however ppl put it... Its called accessorizing.. Sometimes UP... Sometimes Down, even just depends on my mood! Ppl get so wound up on the strangest things!
The whole “don’t say that!” Followed by that long sip lol BIG MOOD. Do you. You’re honestly one of my favorite creators because you aren’t afraid to try anything and everything! That includes classic and more neutral looks like French. Live. Your. Life. The right people will always understand where you’re coming from.
I love how she said there's a time and place for everything!!! People just DON'T want to recognise that fact anymore! You can be yourself without imposing yourself on every space you come across, it's such a selfish and immature thing to do. It would have been another story if someone had told her she had to do the french manicure but she chose to do it herself because she wanted to and also because she's mature enough to realise that super long and bold nails just aren't appropriate for certain spaces and that, that's not an attack on her personal preferences but just how things are in the adult world. As much as you have to love yourself and not change yourself to please others, it's JUST as important to respect the different spaces you will find yourself in! People have become so selfish and conceited and they excuse it with "loving yourself" and "not toning yourself down", smdh, No honey, she's not toning herself down, She's being an emotionally adjusted adult who knows that not everything must be about herself!
I, unfortunately, saw that comment section coming from a mile away. And I empathized with you immediately because I knew what you were saying. You are not the black woman representative and you knew what you wanted for yourself. You were going to a party and there’s a dress code. As someone who went to a Catholic school, I couldn’t just wear anything or accessorize just with anything. There’s levels to this and you knew what the assignment was. I can respect that. Although I understand where a lot of commenters were coming from… the disrespect was unacceptable. We can disagree and still make sure we show love.
As soon as I saw the thumbnail I didnt even have to watch the video to know what she was talking about. And I watched that video before there was really any comments so there were none on the subject, but as soon as she said what she said I literally said out loud "oh lord, I can see how this is gonna go". What she said had nothing to do with blackness and I took what she said as her wanting a classy set of nails and not more pop cultured nails. Because the long blinged out nails isn't a racial thing, it's more of a pop culture thing. But unfortunately because I see it so much I already knew exactly how some people would take it and knew they would take it as her being "ashamed" to be black even though long blinged out nails has absolutely nothing to do with her race. I am still 4 minutes into the video and haven't seen the comments or what she is gonna talk about yet but I'm sure I'm right on the money with it.
@@Meech817 Long blinged out nails isn't a race thing, but was created by Black woman and is apart of black culture. So I can see why those folks felt the way they did but disrespect was not needed...
@@Meech817 exactly 💯
@@gentleauroraasmr8562 actually it was created by Ancient Egyptian and Asian noble women as a means of displaying not only their wealth but to demonstrate that they didn't have to lift a finger in their daily lives.
@@kimcallaghan3404 That's not true... Everything has to be someone else when we ever speak on what black people made. Long nails, blinged out nails all originated from black culture back from the 70s, 80s & 90s... Black woman were the ones who created those things. Not asian or Anciet Egyptian... What Asian woman have you seen where long blinged out nails as a symbolism of not lifting a finger???
That's the problem with the world...they are always concerned with what others are doing or not doing! Just mind your own damn business and let people be themselves. How is the color of someone's skin an issue anyway regardless of the situation?? I'm glad I wasn't raised that way. Jealousy and hate are traits to be ashamed of. You keep doing you Evie! 😀👍💅
They’re always concerned with others action when they should be looking at their own actions
Amen!
Evie you really are an inspiration. Your time management for your personal life and youtube is insane and your patience! You really are one of the many blessed people in the world . I absolutely love how you control your emotions and come up with solutions to a problem. Even if it’s just a little mistake when you do your nails. I wish you many, MANY, happy memories with yourself and your family! Much love :)
Exactly this ⬆️.
Completely agree.
It’s the unbotheredness for me lol. Like you said, there’s a time and a place for EVERYTHING! I saw nothing wrong with the way you explained it but just knew somebody was going to have something negative to say about the beautiful frenchies that were perfect appropriate for the occasion
Black women’s voices get misunderstood constantly and it is so frustrating. It reminds me of when you gave Suzie a valid critique about her acrylic monomer and then you were called “inexperienced” and she tried to pull the “beginner usage failure” card, i was over here getting mad myself. What makes it crazy is because most of the people who misunderstand black women….. aren’t black. And at that point it’s like.. did you try to understand or are y’all getting mad just to get mad???
Loved the set and appreciated the video ♥️♥️
Facts! That situation bothered me too
They get mad just to get mad
Ever since Suzie exposed her own bias and pettiness over that situation I’ve been seeing her in a different light. There was way too much salt over a simple critique.
It’s almost like you’ll be damned if you do & damned if you don’t , do you love ! .. period 😂🤣
I have not even started the video and I can probably guess correctly this is about the nails you did going to the country club. As soon as you said in the videos you didn't want your nails "urban" I literally said out loud "oh lord, I can see how this is gonna go". And not because I felt any way about it but because how comfortable people have gotten attacking others when they feel differently than them.
When you made that comment personally I took it as you wanted "classic" nails and not "pop culture" nails. I didn't equate it to blackness as the long blinged out nails have nothing to do with race. But I knew when you said it you would have everyone attacking you and claim you "feel ashamed" to be black as I see it so much on here.
Though I don’t think anyone should attack someone over a word I think the term “urban” has a somewhat negative connotation because it’s been used by non black people as a description for things related to black culture. I honestly think it’s somewhat micro-aggressive. To hear your clothes, hair, neighborhoods, etc. be described as “so, urban”.
So I think when she said she didn’t want “urban” nails especially in the context of going to a country club (which many people unfortunately associate with a proximity to whiteness), it rubbed people the wrong way.
I think there could have been a better use of words such as trendy, dramatic, glam. Or that she just wanted more refined or classy nails.
But regardless to what disrespecting others is not the way to express your opinions or to be heard.
@@customcollage9228 the problem isn't the word that was used, the problem is the morphing of words meaning to include or infer anything other than its actual meaning. The word urban is derived from the Latin urbanus, urbs meaning city. While the Latin word for city was urbs, the resident was civis or townsman. Not unlike other words, this too has been taken and stretched and twisted to imply something entirely different...but I guess popular slang will eventually alter every language on earth if we let it.
@@kimcallaghan3404 I mean this in the most respectful way but that’s just how languages work. You can say it’s stretched and twisted but it’s truly evolution. Like for example the term antisocial being used improperly for so long that the word, to most people, has taken on a different meaning in society and this definition is now recognized. “Urban” is not just slang it is a word that has been pushed onto certain communities as descriptor to say what/who they are without having to truly say it. And possibly be deemed racist or insensitive. I really didn’t want to have to do a deep dive in the comments, so I won’t. But please understand there is a lot of nuance that you may miss and it isn’t just a trendy new word. Nothing with language is set in stone, but if you could inform yourself of the Latin meaning then you could take time to learn the somewhat negative implications and nuances of the word.
@@customcollage9228 while the word may be inferred as such today by virtue of misuse or twisting or otherwise skewing its definition, the fact remains that Urban means city and Urban Dwellers are people who reside with in the city, how some modern day wannabe wordsmith chooses to attempt to rewrite it to suit their purpose only displays them for the manipulators they are. And sadly the Latin meaning is the original definition so it might just as well be cast in stone given that the majority of all languages stem from Latin, I don't subscribe to the notion that one can call an apple an orange, or recreate ancient language and morph it into something it isn't, and unfortunately that is the issue here, people trying to rewrite the dictionary in the attempt to use it to belittle somebody else with.
@@kimcallaghan3404 I don’t think we’re gonna get anywhere. It’s not just twisting it’s the development of language. And while I understand where you’re coming from, I don’t think your argument stands because words have evolving meanings/ connotations over time. If we went back to the Latin meaning for every word in every language derived from it, some words wouldn’t make sense in the ways in which we currently use them. There is nuance and evolution to words/ language (especially within America) which I don’t think will be recognized in this conversation, so I’m just gonna dead it. I hope you have good day.
Your positivity is what keeps me here I’m a funeral Director and everything about you calms me down after work I’m sooo thankful for you!!!!!!!
I love all of the nails you've done. I love the french mani. Other people are so ridiculous. There are days when you just want something simple and elegant.❤️❤️❤️
People don’t understand that everybody is different despite being the same race.
People (like my family) expect me to act a certain way because I’m Mexican. N I’m like no, I’m more mature than that, I’m not gonna cause a scene or act like a child and scream & cry over something so trivial.
Yk like go ahead and cause a scene idc just don’t get me involved, or tell me how I should act because of my race.
Everyone has* a personality and our own conscious, that’s what makes us individual.
If we all were one person no one would have been able to overcome situations others were able to figure out, because they have a different mind set.
Lol I really like your comment. Just picture how boring the world would be if we could only have ONE personality per race 😂
@@maiamaiapapaya exactly lol
My family expects me to have and be proud of a thick country accent because we're literally from the sticks and my mom acts the part but....no, I'm good. I own my own business and I deal with alot of people from different parts of the world on a daily basis. Yes my "accent" somewhat disappears and I speak a bit more formal while working but I'm still me. Get off my back, am I right?
I do my own nails too. And YES!! There is a time and place for everything! So, do they wear daisy duke shorts to an interview?? No! You dress professionally!!
That’s insane that people said that. I had some crazy colourful nail art that I changed to a plain pink with a darker pink muted floral design for my step brothers wedding. Because I wanted to! Could I have worn crazy nails, sure, but it wouldn’t have matched the vibe I was going for for the wedding. You did the same thing for the country club. What we do with our nails shouldn’t be dictated by the shade of our skin or other people! You keep doing you because you are wonderful!!
I don’t understand why having a classic French is so bad? It looked amazing on you! I can’t believe people went after you for expressing yourself. I’m sorry you had to deal with that.
,u daughter took a class in high school called “Personal Image.” It is all about discovering your personal strengths and using them to your advantage. They spent a lot of time talking about perception and taking control of how people view you. I completely understood why you wanted a French manicure for a party where you are meeting new people. You wanted them to see you! I always do “stylish but simple’ when meeting new people and interviews. My personality is more than enough….I think yours is too! I always love your channel and recommend it to everyone.
Beautiful nails. Everyone switches it up from time to time but I like many was taken aback hearing she didn’t want to look “Urban”. (Trying to add some wisdom about the last video) If the statement was “Let’s go for a country club look” “Let’s go Simple today” I don’t see why anyone would have been offended BUT “Not wanting to look Urban” was stated. Listening again it’s possible she meant Urban as in citified/ City Girl. many heard Urban as in relating to Black People. Always your choice for a style but I think people got Triggered hearing that word Urban(black aesthetics) & basically saying it didn’t belong at the Country Club. I wish that statement was elaborated on so no confusion was had. No one should dare be harassing Evie though.
You’re not just black, you’re a human being. You be you. I love watching your videos and have learned so much. Where there is success, there are jealous janes, please ignore them and keep moving forward. You’re a superstar!💅🏼🥇💖
Omg i remember seeing those comments and thinking "they're just nails! Leave her alone🙄". Stop trying to tell black women how to live for their damn selves. We're adults, we should know how to mind our damn business.
Why are other people mad at how YOU want to carry YOURSELF?? Toned down nails are white now? So ONLY black girls like colorful, long, blingy nails? What is their point of saying being unapologetically black? I don’t get why they’re equating pretty nails to blackness? The ignorance is real. Let people live their own life. I just see you as a woman who does cute nails. I didn’t know your blackness was so important to others. 🤷🏼♀️
I think it's more that she said she didn't want to be to urban. Which is another way of saying black. At least that's what bothered me.
Damn people who said that with the French manicure litteraly sound more like they wanted to say that black women can't be classy. That's how it comes of to me. Like "express yourself, be tacky" sick people 🤦♀️
You're non black it's not ur place to speak over us lol
Sisters WE should straighten each other’s crown not tear apart ourselves or each other. Live, love & laugh with each other we have enough struggles. Love you all!
People really do get into their feelings about things that have absolutely nothing to do with them. You don't need to worry. Keep on being your beautiful self ❤ love this set.. I might try something similar 🤔 😏 😅
Liking it because I already know I’m gonna love it. 🥰
Nicely said sis!! There is a time and place for everything! Beautiful set as always!
Love this,& I knew exactly what u meant by going there with shorter nails than u normally create. I’ve been a hairstylist for 13 yrs,& the very 1st thing I learned was that your appearance means everything! Just like u said- there’s a time & a place. U have worked VERY HARD for what u have achieved in life,& are a fantastic role model for the younger generation! Thank you for being U!
French tips are a timeless classic. Nothing wrong with doing that when the mood strikes you, no matter where you are going.
I would love to see a rainbow nail of those pastels, so pretty
Evie, I'm loving the set-up you've got nowadays! Great balance between being close up & personal with your nails, techniques, products used etc & seeing you as well as hearing you. I'm sure a lot of work goes into each TH-cam video. Including setting everything up & editing etc. (Kudos to Marcus for his skillzz). Not forgetting to mention being a working mum with Littles! it's one thing to make TH-cam content , feed bubs & get back to it and quite another level of awesomeness to so so without missing a beat ..sure editing is a part of it, but I mean the whole feel, vibe and being able to make it look so effortless. Love your designs & appreciate seeing how you've been making your ouch thumb nail tips etc . Basically, the total Queen of utilising every opportunity to impart your skills .
Those who feel it's their place to criticise (without even a hint of it being constructive in any way). Well, they seem to presume an awful lot. Projection much?! 🤣. Perhaps if they're feeling so embroiled in your intentions they should pay your bills. 🙃😆 . "Nowt as funny as folk" as my Nana used to say!
Cheers for another great, informative TH-cam vid. I'm sure you don't need Annnnnyy unsolicited advice whatsoever, will keep on keeping on & showing errryone how it's done, girl! 💋
Love that you’re so comfortable in your skin (and nail)! 💖
Queennnn ur right istg why do people even took the time to even think of that btw you are doing great i love ur style keep doing what you love girl!
Interesting. While I was watching your simple french tip nail vid, I had similar thoughts cross my mind. "Why does she have to change her style for the country club? Why can't she just be her bold self all the time? Does this mean she's ashamed to be black?" Then I thought about my own self. Of course I would change my style depending on the setting. I morph my style into whatever fits the mood. It's a natural human action to blend in with your peers. What a silly thing to try and tell someone otherwise
it’s giving me insecurity. there’s no rule that says race determines how you act, the decisions you make, nor the level of maturity you have
Sending you love Evie ❤️❤️❤️ I love your videos and I’m sorry you had to deal with the BS! I’m here for the nails (any nails!) and your shining personality. Love you!
I fell in love with your voice, that’s why I started watching you. The nails you do are extraordinary and being able to watch you is even more so. I don’t know why some people have to voice pointless opinions.
When she does HER nails, she’s expressing HERSELF. She’s not expressing the black community nor is she expressing you. Let her do whatever she wants with her nails. Not everything has to be made into a race debate. Black women and black men can express themselves however they want (freely, reserved, etc) we shouldn’t tell an individual how to express themselves, whether they’re a minority or not. Lets just put it that way. Evie, love, you’re doing amazing 💕
Hell nah y’all better not be stressing out the Queen when y’all nonsense, any issues y’all have don’t take that up with her take that up with your mama!!!! Love you ms long hair pretty nails ❣️❣️❣️
I was just saying the same thing! Keep doing your thang mama! I been watching your videos for yrs and I’m still here! Anything we do from nails to testifying we are going to get the others who just have to say something to be seen or heard! I get so much positivity and then there’s the bs! We good and keep doing your thang!
Evie,I’ve been binging your vids since I’m back into my new nails after discovering your video on the lazy girl method and I saw the party video. I totally got your reasoning. I would do Squid Game nails for fun or a viewing party or a theme party but not a black tie wedding or formal event. I also wouldn’t wear jeans to a black tie event. Sometimes simple and classic says elegant best. Now if you went to drum up new business and seek nail clients if that was your thing, I would do it up. No reason to try to make you feel guilty or a certain way. You do this for you and share with us. Thank you, I’m just glad you share, period!
THIS IS THE INTROOOOOOOO TO LONG HAIR PRETTY NAIL SHOOOOOOOOW
Honestly I find you more reliable than most of these black influencers. Sailor moon and glitter and all cute things are kind of restricted in the black community. We are expectied to act like Kim k or Nikki and we are not all like them. Being ratchet 24/7 is exhausting.
"y'all need to tone down" is the phrase of the century lmao.
Love watching your videos! Began doing my nails again bc of you and started caring less abt what people think! Every nail you do is beautiful💅🏼✨
My hubby and I just finished Squid games and I have a whole new appreciation for your Squid Games nails. Your creativity blows me away
I know that’s right Evie! Block and don’t let anybody disturb your PEACE! Every time I watch you do polygel I’m like why couldn’t it be that easy for me lol. It’s okay I mastered applying full cover tips I think I’m on my 6th set and I’m not mad at it.
I love your positivity. You are always so uplifting. Thanks for being you!
Your comments on this video were 333 when I saw it so I just want you to know that I appreciate your content every time I see it, and I hope you continue being exactly who you are inside. Love you boo!
THIS VIDEO IS IT!! girl I felt this!! As a Hispanic im told so much how I should act as if im not a human being with my own thoughts and wants 😂 i can't imagine how it is for you with such a large following!! But pop off sis 👏 and keep doing you!!!
Preach it Evie! Not EVERYTHING has to be a race issue. You do you, Sis! All your nails are fire. Love ya, Girl!
I love having you on in the background when I manicure and polish my nails. You are so funny, honest and real. Of course, very talented. I love how you just go for it, and your not afraid to make mistakes on your nails. Thank you for keeping me company.
You’re amazing and you’re content is stellar ! I appreciate all your videos it has helped me learn how to do nails for myself!! Good for you setting boundaries 💞💞
I can't believe those people tried to use race to bring you down like that, how aggravating!! 😡 Do you Evie, ignore those freaking haters☺️
They used race in a situation that was about class 😩
@@cmbsr4851 Right! Like if someone commented something like that on my TH-cam videos I would do ALLOT more than block them 😂
I love your methods and improvisations. Without you, I don't know where I would be with all my DIY situations. Lol! Thanks girl!
New subscriber but you have quickly become one of my fav couple channels! You are thorough, keep it real, and are very versatile and knowledgeable with the products! Keep it up, JUST LIKE YOU ARE DOING! BE YOUR AUTHENTIC FABULOUS SELF! ❤️ Hugs girl!
You’re doing a great job you’re latest video really help me with nail prep and I figured out why my nails were left because I was skipping an important step which is the cuticle pusher.
I used to get verbally attacked because of my nails. “Their not professional enough. You’re not gonna get a job.”
Meanwhile I worked and supervised my own team at one of the most prestigious banks! Had 15 people on my team and produced monthly scorecards of no lower than 96% each month. So, I feel you when people start to voice those opinions on your nails on your hands with your products. Keep doing you.
You are very amazing woman
I feel you. I'm "not allowed" to wear super long blinged out nails because of skin color. Can't we just agree to all be people and wear whatever nails we want just because they're pretty? Or because we have things to do and need shorter nails? Or insert your preference here? On the Squid Game nails, I'd never heard of it and looked it up after your video on them. Lol, I'm too scared to watch it...
Evie! You need to do a makeup tutorial or a GRWM! I’m obsessed with your makeup looks as well as your nails 😍😍😍
So I’m officially obsessed with your channel. You’re so inspiring!
Girl, do you. The French tip went with the outfit!!!
Hi!! Wow I’m first!! Hey girrrlll! Love the polygel videos!!
Evie, you are LITERALLY the best! Keep being you and keep at your craft. Watching your videos again, binge watching the old ones and all are really helping me learn a lot and making me remember how much I wanted to do nails and now I wanna get back into it. Much love to you and your family 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕 And lastly a big THANK YOU!
I love how you talk about everything, and the fact you give us facts about you and the products you use. It’s really amazing and helpful! 💚💚💚
Love the new look. I’ve notice that the Korean nail techs on here don’t put the full nail tips up near the cuticle. The leave a bit a room, file it with whatever color color gel that they used.
The fun thing with fashion and dressing up is you get to choose how you want to present yourself. Gorgeous set once again. Enjoy all the sets you present. 💗💗💗
I just found your channel and have binge watched tons of your vids...late to the party over here! I love your videos, your heart, and all. You're just amazing!
Good on you for blocking out that kinda noise. You dont need that kind of negativity girl. I watching that video you did about going to the country club. Boy.. people cant just be happy for you getting that new experience. Glad youre speaking up 🧡
All the colors side by side look just like a special bracelet from my childhood. Indoors, the bracelet was plain white but it turned those pretty pastels in the sunlight!
Block 👏🏾 em 👏🏾Evie! Keep doing you! I love your channel. ❤️
💜I love all your videos!! I have been on my own nail 💅 journey and so happy I found you!!! You have inspired me and honestly your voice I swear is so comforting lol keep it up girl you have a talent and we are all here supporting it girl 💯🙌😘
Girl I'm here to watch u do ur nails and I love ur attitude!
girl, you do what eva you want , cuz u beautiful!!! no matter the color of our skin , we can do what ever
I actually like it when you do simpler designs, it makes it feel like it's been simplified just for my dyslexic self. :D But I like it when you do intricate designs, because it genuinely fascinates me watching artists work. To me, that's what you are; An artist. As I understand it, artists' work usually aren't liked by people with sticks where they don't belong, (If you'll forgive that gross brain picture.) until they see that everyone else likes it, and jump on the bandwagon.
Also, watching comment sections of various videos, I've noticed that some people simply don't feel any sort of validation unless they're telling other people what they're supposed to be doing, when, where, why and with whom. Or they think that validation will come from showing that they're offended by the current 'hot topic issues'. It's all so silly.
You're wonderful. Be happy, be you, if you want to of course. ^_^ I'm not gonna be someone to tell you what to do. Just mostly sharing my own observations.
I’m so sorry you had to deal with people like that. Keep doing you beautiful! 💜 love your content and have since day one!
I have been enjoying binge watching your videos!! I tried polygel for the first time and your content really helps. I’ve been watching for awhile and I love your channel!
Social media be exposing the real weirdness behind human nature
I watched Jackie's video, im clearly a white women that doesnt create content, so Im not gonna relate in the same ways or truly understand, but I love to see creators do well, especially black woman because of how it can be more of a struggle to become successful. I just wish to see the women who work hard and deserve the numbers, money, and sponsors to be happy and enjoy what they are doing and what comes with their success. Im new to nail content so I just found your videos, I love your energy and talent.
I watch you because you're a real person doing your own nails. You do you! I wear crazy nails at times but if I was going to a party or function I would also tone it down. You've inspired me to try so many things. Don't listen to the haters. (I'm in the Nashville area too, I saw you Kroger but didn't want to bother you)
Can I say this...I literally watch your videos over and over again. Listening to your voice and you giggles does it for me as they make me smile and giggle. I like to read your comments as your followers truly follow you and love you work.
Im sorry that some gave you crap on who they thought you were but you dont need to explain yourself to anyone. The ones that get you GET YOU and thats why we always tune in to your work.
I do my nails according to the mood that I'm in at that moment or whatever event is happening that time. I do them for me and me only. I wish I could wear my nails like yours. I'm a nurse so I can't. Otherwise wise it DEFINITELY WOULD. I love your videos. Do you. I understood what your agenda was. I don't understand how race was made an issue. Keep up the good content!
Hello 👋 loveeee your squid game nails 💅🏾
Why is your notification bell not on for Jackie Aina lol I'm pretty sure we all got yours on SUPPORT YOUR FRIENDS 💯anyway love the nails keep shining girl and God bless.
I just had to come on here and say I agree with what you said "TIME AND PLACE...FOR EVERYTHING". I am new at nails and I absolutely love your content! You are so awesome!
