To start your flamingo off, you're going to start with his head. When you pull your hot pink striping brush out of the bottle you want to make sure that you don't have an excess of polish on it or it will just drip all over the nail. You're going to start by making an upside down C curve. You may need to add a little polish when you get to the top, just to kind of bring it down and around a little more. If you see that you don't have enough polish on there, go ahead and re-dip it into your bottle. We're going to go ahead and do the head part, for four fingers on one hand. And again it's just an upside down C. Until you get used to the movement of the brush you may need to start at the top, and just kind of bring an arch down to both sides. But once you get enough practice you'll be able to do the C in just one swift motion. And again you want to make sure his head is a little bit thick but not too thick to where it looks oddly shaped. Notice how you start with the head, it is an upside down C curve.
