Sometimes extravagant Gender Reveals can go spectacularly wrong, as one couple from Arizona found out when their planned gender reveal idea went up in smoke. Literally. When Dennis, the Dad to be shot at a highly flammable target, not only did it burn blue or pink, it sparked a wildfire that consumed 450,000 acres and took 800 fire-fighters an entire week to battle the blaze, resulting in a $22,000 fine. Should have gone with the tried and tested DIY box reveal.
Apart from the epic fails, most parents can get quite creative with their Gender Reveals. And that’s where Gender Reveal nails come in.
Who created Gender Reveal Nails?
In early 2019, Marsha found out she was expecting and decided to have a friend reveal the gender to her. Marsha from Trend Setters Hair Studio in Cincinnati shared her creation on Instagram. She decorated fake nails painted with pink and blue colors with an elaborate little cake at the top of the middle finger. A friend lit the candle on top of the cake and it burned with a blue flame! And then the craze started. Of course, the internet loved the idea and 18 months later, here we are, ready to show you the best Gender Reveal Nail ideas!
