Carly (real name Sarah), told BuzzFeed,
"I started my account in December 2013. I actually did start making Vines of myself trying to be funny which didn't really work out except for my total of 35 followers at the time. During the end of May 2014, my friend and I decided to make an Instagram account posting nail tutorials because we were both interested in nail art. I made my first nail art tutorial of an anchor and posted it to Instagram. I thought it would be cool to also post it on my vine account and see how much attention it got. The Instagram tutorial got 2 or 3 likes but the same anchor tutorial I posted on Vine (which is still on my account) got a lot more attention. My friend and I deleted the Instagram account because we didn't have enough free time to keep our posts frequent together but I kept my Vine account. Since then I've been posting nail tutorials on my Vine."
