[Mermaid Syriianis]

Hi, my name is Syriianis (but my birth name is Nyah), I'm 18, and my pronouns are she/her.:pI'm new to having a tail but I have always loved the ocean and what lies within it, im an artist and a fashion desginer. I love video games on PC but i mainly play Rainbow 6 siege ;w;

I have a very handsome boyofriend that supports me in what i do and i to him, been with de boy for a straight year now lol.♥♥♥

I Live in Georgia near ATL and have never had a group of friends who have the same interest as mine. I have wanted a tail since I was 8, I used to make my own tails using leggings and sew/attempt to sew my legs together in it to make a tail. up to when I turned 18 however and graduated I finally got my first chance to get what I have been wanting for like ages.

Soon this year and next year I'll be working on my very first silicone tail! I'll be posting things about it and I would love feedback when I begin.

Thanks for taking the time to read this it means alot♥ i plan to do sooo much more in the mermaid community once i make my tail and am i tureeee merfolk XDD

Hello there and welcome to MN! There are a ton of great resources here about making your own silicone tail. Please post a thread in the tailmaking section and you can update us all with your progress!

That being said, I do highly recommend that you get a fabric tail and a monofin to practice and swim in before you ever swim in a silicone. Silicones are heavy and dangerous, even for experienced swimmers so please make sure you are staying safe <3

I'm as new to this community as you are, but welcome! Making a silicone tail seems like such a huge project, I wish you all the best! Can't wait to cheer you on!
