I'm so bad at doing my own nails that I'm reluctant to even do a sheer jelly polish for fear that my right hand will look like I did it with a tree branch. The thought of doing my own nail art? Forget it. I have never let those intrusive thoughts win. Hailey Bieber, on the other hand, is braver than I am, not only giving DIY nail art a try but also showing it off to her millions of followers.
Bieber posted a carousel to Instagram on Sunday, the second slide of which is a close-up of her manicure—and it's definitely not her usual glazed look. Her oval nails are painted in a khaki base coat with big, blue, swirly dots. And before anyone assumed that her nail artist, Zola Ganzorigt, Bieber shared the post to her Story as well, writing, “yes I did do this nail art on myself and yes I will be taking appointments.”

Ganzorigt is so proud of her client-turned-pupil that she posted it on her own Instagram grid, too.

Bieber's followers are torn over the abstract artwork. “I love youuu but Nails are not giving this time,” one fan commented. Others weren't as gentle, with one writing, “The nails 😂 ‘what colour do you want’ ‘dirty smoker yellow’ 😂🤏🏻,” and another saying, “R those eyeball nails, or fungus?!”
Meanwhile, others were impressed with her polish prowess. “Nails ate. You are fab. Game over 🙂↔️🤝,” one commenter said, while another wrote, “the nail art is cute! 🩵💙” Yet another compared the look to Van Gogh, while others were more than ready to take Bieber up on her presumably sarcastic offer to accept appointments. “Hailey doing nail artistry as a side hustle is EVERYTHING we never knew we wanted and needed,” one fan wrote, and another said, “i’d like to book in for a nail appointment next time you are in australia, please let me know availability and prices thanks.”
And honestly, I'd book with Bieber, too. She would definitely do a better job on my right hand than I ever could.
