If you've ever been the owner of long, manicured tips, you've probably heard one of these questions before: How do you function with those things? Can you even type? How do you use the bathroom? Having long nails can be laborious to some, but lengthy manicures do not faze others who have figured out how to adapt to them. On May 16, rapper Kash Doll presented a new dilemma, specifically for long nail lovers who are mothers: how the hell do you change a diaper?

Kash asked fellow rapper Cardi B, who is known for her extremely long, extravagant acrylics, for advice because she's been struggling to change her baby's diapers with press-ons. In response, the Bronx rapper shared a helpful one-minute tutorial using a stuffed teddy bear, all the while proving that she can do pretty much anything. 

She started the tutorial by unlatching the teddy bear's white onesie. Immediately, our eyes latched on to the red, stiletto-sculpted talons that look as bright as a fresh strawberry. Then, she proceeded to remove the diaper and showed how she likes to wipe, emphasizing that it's important to thoroughly clean the baby's booty and get into all the little crevices. She easily wiped the teddy bear with her tomato-red nails, and if we had to guess, they are probably longer than a bullet lipstick.

In the midst of her cleaning, her adorable daughter Kulture made an appearance and asked with a cute itty bitty voice, "Mommy, why you cleaning the butt?" Cardi responded with a light chuckle and, "It's a long story." Once the bear was fully cleaned, she applied a fresh diaper with ease. As she reattached the buttons on the onesie, she shared that it's her least favorite part before the video ends.

Cardi B makes changing a diaper look effortless even with her long nails, perhaps proving that long nails aren't as unmanageable as some people claim. Or maybe that's just the magic of Cardi.
