In this upbeat vlog, Tilly Lockey, a teenage amputee who uses the Hero Arm bionic prosthetic, finally fulfills a longāstanding wish to have nail art on her prosthetic hands. Joined by her nail technician Georgie and a few friends, they discuss how to prepare the arm (choosing gentle buffing over drilling), decide on a short nail length, and apply a pink base with chrome designs. Tilly expresses excitement over the finished look, noting itās her best set yet. The video ends with plans to finish the second hand later and a proposal for a mailāin nailāservice where users can send their prosthetic hands to Georgie for custom nail work, hinting at future demand.

As a girl with no hands, one thing I've always wanted is to get my nails done, but obviously I have no fingers. But now I do! I was able to get my nails done on the Hero Arm with my gorgeous nail tech Georgie, and we're back for round 2. Let's get my nails done!
I don't want to drill into it, it's likeā
oh my god.
Are you fully drilling into it?
Just buffing it.
Okay.
Is that okay?
Yeah, I think so.
Oh, it's cute!
You want them really short, right?
Yeah, unfortunately, guys, because last time we went really long and that wasn'tā
was it? Didn't love it.
Oh, I missed coloring nails.
We're gonna do a nice little pink base and then some cool little chrome designs on these baddies. Something along these lines.
Is that better? Yeah. Is it?
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Do you want to do it? Of course you want to do it now, girl! So cute!
Oh my God, how fun!
Oh my God, ready? 1, 2, 3!
Hey guys, how cute are they?
They're so cute! Oh my God, they look so pretty! God, I'm I'm obsessed. This is definitely the best set we've done so far, I feel.
Definitely.
They're so cute.
I feel like they're just so you.
They are.
Do you know what I mean?
They are.
I love them.
Thank you.
You're so welcome.
And we need to do the other one, but we've run out of time. I need to go home, unfortunately. So I'm gonna leave Georgie the hand because she can just do it. I don't even need to be at the appointment, dude.
So we're gonna design this one. I'm gonna do her tomorrow. Or later tonight and finish the set off and then send it out. Exactly. And also, if you can't go get your nails done, send them to me, I'll do them for you and I'll send them back to you.
Period.
We can do that for you.
We're just gonna have like inbound loads of foreign accounts in the mail.
