What I Like

My Crocodile Hotel Kaduna experience kicked off with a tricycle from my place, which took about 15 minutes. Once I arrived at the building, the first thing that hit me was the entrance and lobby. 

The outer entrance features a parking lot that is too small and might not take as many cars. The attention to horticulture and artwork gives it a beauty of its own that makes you want to click some photos. 

Also, the inner entrance was accentuated with outdoor decorations of various ornamental plants and a wooden artwork of a crocodile. It depicts what the hotel is called: Crocodile Hotels. There is a historic story about crocodile called “Kada” in Hausa, which stands for Kaduna, its people, and the language. The hotel didn’t stray too far from norms and culture.

Although, there were parrots that happen to be caged. But I was told with time, the owners want to train them to be able to welcome guests on arrival. That would be beautiful if it were to happen. 

When I walked into the lobby, it was straight-on hospitality. I met a staff member who was very welcoming and friendly. The lobby featured tiled terrazzo, a design area, and was well-furnished with comfortable chairs to serve as the waiting area. There’s even an area where you can polish your shoe for free. Interesting. 

A vital part of the hotel that makes it interesting is the timbers surrounding the hotel. I liked how it was accentuated in every corner of the hotels but I was still curious as to why. 

I asked Mr. Musa Maikarfi about it and he explained it to me. The hotel is surrounded by wood and timber gotten from the existing trees on the land before the construction of the building. I was shocked yet mesmerized at the same time. I couldn’t help but imagine how many years those timbers and wood are aged. Although aged, they still look fresh due to treatment by staff and officials. 

Another thing I like about the room is how elegant it looks. The room is adorned with a king-size bed, white sheets, a seating area with chairs, and storage spaces in closets. It also features free Wi-Fi, a functional intercom, air-conditioning, and flat TV screens. The walls are well-painted with beautiful curtains to give it a homely and welcoming ambiance. 

The bathroom but small and everything functioning. Bathroom amenities included a water heater, toilet roll, towel, towel hanger, and a toilet that flushes. But I do recommend you bring your care products like shampoo, body soap and wash, lotion, and toothpaste. 

One last thing I like at the Crocodile Hotel Kaduna is how neat and spotless the rooms are. Asides from being spacious, the rooms look decent with a sleek design. With a room like that, I would fall asleep almost immediately.  

What I Dislike about Crocodile Hotel Kaduna

The hotel is situated in the city center of Kaduna State. Kaduna is generally hot in most parts of the year.

But it is worth noting that what I dislike about the hotel is that it does not have a swimming pool, no gym or fitness center, and no spa. I am sure not every hotel boasts of these leisure facilities and customer-side attractions but in a state as hot as Kaduna, having a swimming pool either indoor or outdoor will boost customers and guests for them. 

As far as service is concerned, this is my only negative comment. 

Good to Know

The hotel offers 24-hour room service, which means you can use the intercom or go down the lobby area to either complain about something or order your favorite dishes any hour of the day. The hotel also provides laundry services to its guests.

The Crocodile Hotel Kaduna has its parking lot. There is also a bar and outdoor relaxation for guests who want to simply enjoy the evening and want to have a good time with other guests. Although the bar is non-functional since the COVID-19 lockdown in no time, the bar will be up and running again for guests to enjoy their stay. 

The hotel does not provide its guest with a fitness center or gym facility, swimming pool, and spa. But with their hospitability services, your stay will be an unforgettable one.

Another colour making rounds and revealing a thing about a person is “baby blue.” Rather than saying I’m in a relationship, girls on TikTok paint their nails in this color to show off their commitment. They make a video showing the nails to their followers to send a message to them. Why? They believe that’s the colour guys like on them, and most guys say they like blue on them.

While variations of this colour, including baby blue and light blue, do not be confused, both mean she is taken, and you should back off.

“If a girl ever asks me to pick her nail colour, I’m gonna pick light blue every time just so no other guy flirts with her.”

How to Take Care of Your Acrylic Nails

How to Take Care of Your Acrylic Nails

Acrylic nails are a beauty, and it took me so long to realize that I have been missing a lot. But not anymore. I recently just got myself one, and I love them! In this article, I’ll share with you how to take care of acrylic nails, exactly like mine.

What are acrylic nails?

Acrylics are a mix of liquid monomer and powder polymer, forming a thick paste glued and bonded to our natural nails. Doing this adds length, thickness, and beauty to our nails. Simply put, they are artificial, faux, unoriginal nails. There is a lot of art done on nails to beautify them, and every work out there is a masterpiece.

An art technician or a manicurist carefully applies the nails so you don’t make a mistake or hurt yourself. In this context, below are ways how to take care of acrylic nails

1. Wear Gloves

I know this doesn’t sound nice, but you have to be on the safe side. Wearing gloves helps prevent the nails from coming in contact with water, detergent, and other chemicals you may not know could cause harm.

A tip here is to place a waterproof glove beside the sink to remind you to wear them.

2. Be Gentle with Them

Remember, these nails are fake, they are not yours. Be careful and gentle around them, do not use them to open cans or open hard kinds of stuff.

I once tried opening a can once. Let’s just say I didn’t find it funny.

3. Use Vitamin E or Cuticle Oil/Cream

It is advised to use vitamin E on your skin or cuticle oil on nails either once or twice daily to keep them flexible. When nails are strong, they are most likely to break.

You could use penetrating oil such as Jojoba oil to keep the nails flexible, prevent them from cracking, and furthermore use it on natural nails too.

4. Pick the Right Shape and Length

One of the best ways to cake of your acrylic nails is to pick the right length. There are different lengths, short or long, and shapes out there ranging from square, oval, almond, edge, ballerina, and of course, rounded tips. Pick what is best suited for you.

Do you do lots of housework? If so, it is wise to stick to short and rounded lengths to avoid breaking easily. I use them too.

5. Keep the Nails Dry

Like I said, water can cause damage as it loosens the glue holding the nail together and makes it fall off. Be sure to dry your nails after every activity you carry out. A good way is to dust your hands with baby powder to dry them and be on the safe side quickly.

6. Avoiding Acetone!

How to take care of your acrylic nails? Avoid acetone! Be sure to avoid using nail remover that contains acetone as this causes damage to the nails. You should go to a nail technician to take this off for you, but if you like to do it yourself as I do, you can use alcohol.

7. Applying Only Clear Nail Polish

Are you looking for how to take care care of your acrylic nails? Do you want to improve the appearance of your nails? Apply nail polish as this also helps it lock any pits forming around the edges of the nails. Apply the nail polish to acrylic nails at least once a week.

If you want, you can learn more about the surprising meanings of nail polish.

8. Wash and Sanitize

If there’s one thing COVID-19 has taught us, it’s to wash our hands. Wash your hands with, antibacterial soap regularly and your acrylic nails will thank you for it.

9. Avoid Doing-It-Yourself (DIY) If There Is Any Damage

In case of any damage or cracking, do not be tempted to repair it on your own. Repairing your acrylic nails by yourself could cause more harm. Instead, quickly find the nearest nail technician.

Conclusion

If you know how to take care of acrylic nails, they’ll last you a long time. They are a thing of beauty and are safe to try. Who wouldn’t want to? How do you take care of your acrylic nails? Let me know in the comments!

FAQs on How to Take Care of Acrylic Nails

2. How long do acrylic nails last?

Your acrylic nails can stay up to 3-4 weeks, precisely a month.

3. How do I make my nails shine after applying?

Back Dimple Piercing is The Latest Fashion Trend in Town

Back Dimple Piercing is The Latest Fashion Trend in Town

Back dimple piercing also called “Dermal piercings” are indentations on the lower back just above your butt and hip region. These piercings are extremely beautiful and tempting, but before you go ahead to have this piercing, there are a few things you need to know.

This article will share everything you need to know before piercing those back dimples.

Will my Back Dimple Piercing Hurt?

YES! Of course. Ordinarily, you feel pain when piercing the nose so imagine layers of your skin being pierced with an instrument. Yes, do you see it?

Are you squeaking?

Do you have a cringe?

The good news is that pain is subjective, and people can tolerate this piercing. What hurts Aisha will not hurt Sandra, and what doesn’t hurt Sandra most definitely won’t hurt Fatima. If you’ve had other piercings and didn’t feel pain, you may have this piercing.

What Do You Need for This Piercing?

The necessary equipment needed for back dimple piercing are:

  • A specialized and a capable piercer
  • Anti-bacterial lotion/sanitizer
  • A saltwater solution (saline)
  • A clamp for tightening the skin
  • Sterilized needles
  • Dermal punch
  • Piece of jewelry

Why I Decided Against Having a Back Dimple Piercing

I’m glad you are having the thought of having a back dimple. I had it too, and I decided against it after doing my research. My reasons are below:

  1. Your sitting postures can never be the same for some months or at least after it heals.
  2. To avoid contamination and pulling out of the jewelry, your favorite outfits must be avoided for a while.
  3. You cannot freely touch your own back anymore. Incessant touching can irritate the area and make it red, which you do not want.
  4. Oh, your sleeping postures have to change. This is quite tricky cause you won’t even know when you lay on your back and before you know it, you are having sleep paralysis, but your piercing gets worse and excruciatingly painful.
  5. You must go for frequent checkups to ensure the piercing is not affected.

If you ask me, that’s a lot of work. Pheew, I’ll stick to my leg chains, ear, and nose piercings. Next!

Side Effects of A Back Dimple Piercing

These indentations are drop-dead beautiful, but it comes with risk, which is listed below

1. You Risk Having an Infection

This is obtained through contact with bacteria from an inexperienced piercer, unsterilized equipment, or needle. This can be obtained from the jewelry piece or through improper care after piercing.

2. Body Rejection

Ever heard someone say, “my body doesn’t like piercing”? I have, from my friend. She got a nose piercing, and weeks after, she battled with an infection that brought out pus and dirt. She had to clean day and night to avoid further contamination until she gave up and let the piercing close.

Your body can reject piercing by pushing the foreign object out, discharge may be seen, and sleepless nights and days of sterilization which you most definitely would get tired of.

3. Displacement

The foreign object introduced to the layers of your skin may move around to other places if the insertion is not done properly and not deep enough.

4. Tearing of the skin

If you decide to do a back dimple piercing, you should note that you may risk tearing if you are not careful. The jewelry can get stuck in your cloth or accidentally pulled out with force that can lead to painful tears on the skin.

How Long Does it Take for Back Dimples Piercing to Heal?

Research says every piercing takes between 1-3 months to heal, but, in some people, it might take up to 6 months and maybe more to completely heal. The healing time depends on:

  • Your health and metabolism rate
  • The skill of the piercer
  • The care and attention you give to the piercing

Signs of an Infected Back Dimple Piercing

Due to the location of this piercing, cleaning this area might be difficult for you, especially when you leave alone. But if you have long magical hands or you have a friend, watch out for these signs:

  • Swelling
  • Redness
  • Yellow/white discharge
  • Continued pain and discomfort
  • Itching

You may be able to control these signs at home by cleaning with alcohol but be sure to see a specialist when it gets worse or if it needs removal immediately.

How You Should Take Care of Your Back Dimple Piercing

Like going to the doctor, you have been prescribed drugs and told how to use them, right? It’s the same with back dimples piercing, the piercing tells you instructions to follow in taking care of the indentations, but here are a few to get you started.

Always ensure you have clean hands before touching the piercing area. When in doubt, wash your hands with soap and water or use an anti-bacterial hand wash.

  • Use salt water to clean the area at least thrice a day.
  • Wear-free loose clothes that won’t get in contact with the piercing area.
  • Change your bedding and bedsheets.
  • Avoid touching the piercing area completely.
  • Clean the area with Dettol or alcohol.
  • Avoid tight clothing.
  • Sleep on your sides.
  • Avoid contact with water and avoid the swimming pool
  • Do not play with the jewelry that was pierced into your skin.
  • Don’t change the jewelry until piercings are completely healed. After healing, ensure you get your jewelry changed by your piercer.
  • Do not change jewelry yourself.

If you change your mind, go to your piercer to take the jewelry out. Once they are out, you are free and be rest assured that your skin will grow back, but a scar is sure to be there. But worry less as the scar will most definitely fade with time but not completely.

There is a special rice for this delicacy called “the soft, short grain”. This is because it has a high content of starch, which makes this delicacy clump together when cooked. Quite a number of people prefer to use medium-grain rice because they dislike the smell and taste of fermented rice.
