Are selfie nails the most 'extra' manicure ever?

An artist and visual illusionist Dain Yoon has created her very own selfie manicure, which lets you stare at tiny little versions of your face all day long.

Yoon's nails not only have pictures of her face with different expressions on them, but they're framed by strands of hair spouting from each tiny head.

There's no doubt Yoon's nailed the resemblance to herself and taken the concept of the selfie to another level. But before you attempt this on yourself, spare a thought for the practicalities of operating with such hairy digits in day to day life.

Putting contact lenses in could be an issue, and touching anyone that may be even slightly ticklish would feel like a scene from a horror movie.

But if you're looking for a creative excuse to get out of doing the dishes, it doesn't get much better than this.

If you're still up for the challenge, there are some positives to this creative manicure: As Dain showcases in a video on her Instagram page, you can keep yourself amused for hours by making the tiny versions of yourself dance and play with each other.
