Even if you would not have been able to use it at the end and sell it, you would still be a valuable member of the mermaid society because a silicone tail does not define you. Only your actions and words do 🥰
I agree 100%
agreed. even people with the most basic of tails, even the ones without them, are valid members of the community
WOOOOOO!!!! COURTNEY GOT A SILICONE TAIL!!! IVE WAITED FOR THIS MOMENT FOREVER CONGRATS COURTNEY 💜💜💜💜
I’m sorry to see your very first swimming experience in this tail wasn’t super amazing, BUT girl you improved SO much in such a short time!! Our swimming video together is going to be epic 🤩💕

You look even more incredible than usual in that tail. Love the fluke shape.
You are so brave to pursue being a mermaid despite the issues you are having right now. I am sure you will be able to overcome all those problems! We all believe in you 💞
Woooooo second i almost cried during the unboxing your reaction was EVERYTHING ❤️🧜🏾♂️ congratulations
I feel you on the foot thing. I unknowingly broke my foot 10 years ago & it never healed correctly since we didn't think it broke. I normally end up limping by the end of my work day. I remember being so scared that I couldn't mermaid any more because of this, but thankfully most monofins don't aggravate my injury. I still take it fairly easy, but making it work without pain is great. I wish you luck in your beautiful tails Courtney & can't wait to see what comes next!
So happy you were able to sort out the issue you had with the monofin. 😊😊😊 it’s looks incredible and your drive and motivation to do this inspires me A LOT and that if I keep pushing I’ll be able to swim in a mermaid tail! 💙💙💙🧜🏻♀️
Say, Courtney: just out of curiosity, would you be fine if people do fanart of you? 'Cuz I got a DeviantArt account where I submit some of my artworks every now and then (I've submitted artworks of mermaids there before, in case you're interested) and I've been thinking about this for some time now, but I didn't want to do it yet, because I wanted to know what you think about this first. I would credit you and link your CZcams channel as well, of course and I'd also send you the link when I'm done. And if you're not okay with such fanart, that's fine as well ^^💕
I also have sensory issues!! I get into the water and then pull the waist line of my tail out a little and let water into it and it stops suctioning :)
Amazing can't wait for more videos to come it's such s gorgeous tail to
When I sew that you got silicone tail in your sneak peak, I was definitely and genuinely concern for any problems and issue you that might occur, but I’m glad you found a solution. You just look absolutely amazing and I hate to think you can’t always wear it. Can’t wait for more videos!
I love how unique your tail is!! It looks beautiful on you and in the water! Also, I believe in you and wish you all the luck and happines with your new tail!!!!!!!
I'm very proud of you my friend. Your perseverance and humility is just inspiring. I'm so glad we get to see your journey
Yes yes yes!!!! Sooo glad i finally got to catch up and be along on this journey so happy for you
Thank you for sharing so much personal information and experience. That in itself is admirable. I'm sorry to hear about your pain. I send all the healing vibes. Love your tail sis. Proud of you.
Cant wait to see the photoshoots and new intro with your new tail
Oh my gosh your new tail is beautiful!!
Thank you!!
@@CourtneyMermaid you're welcome! My custom tail came in a few weeks ago. But since giving my tail maker my measurements I found out I was pregnant. So I have to wait until after baby's born to have my 1st swim. My tails a tad snug at the moment.
The tail you swam in is so beautiful and creative. I love the dorsal ridges. I hope the solution you came up with helps you because you look gorgeous in your tail.
Yeah!!! Fish Kisses 2 U.
Thank u for the great review. I just got my mertailor whimsy tail. I love it. It's so smooth. And with it silicone review. Now I want one (lol) so happy it's working for 4 u.
And the moment we’ve all been waiting for! This tail is gorgeous and I have been really wanting a creature fins tail for so long and seeing one of my icon# get one is amazing.
A Creature Fins Tail!! That's a dream of design!!! I'd love to have one!! Hope you're going well with it!
It's midnight and here I am watching this. 🧜♀️❤️❤️
Congratulations! Creature_fins 😱😱😱😱 soooooo amazing! 👏👏👏👏 looking forward to seeing all of it
Wow that is so pretty. I love it
1. Your tail is gorgeous! It’s the perfect evolution of your mersona 💚💙
2. Girl I feel you on the foot issues. I’m a full time dance teacher and I’ve had just about everything but plantar fasciitis it seems - warts, ingrown toenails, stress fractures, shin splints, you name it. Foot issues are the worst.
Oh yay! I'm beyond happy for you and still get a little emotional thinking about you and your new tail!
Wowwow, that tail is so awesome and I love how the mermaid tail has an incredibly unique dorsal fin. Hope you say safe! I really enjoy your videos!
I would kill for this tail 😂 Congrats!!
So happy for you.
I haven’t said it before, but congratulations, Courtney!
I tried a silicon tail from Mermaid Kat once, at a merconvention, but the problem was that the monofin was too large for my feet, so it kept slipping off and I didn’t get the right idea of swimming in a silicon tail. But I have to admit that it does feel weightless in the water.
Congrats on the silicone tail!!! You have been a huge inspiration to me. I got my first FinFun fabric tail 1 month ago after a year of watching your videos. My mom watches your videos as well and is my mertender. Thank you so much for your tips and helpful videos. I hope to see you someday^^
Wow.....just wow it looks amazing
I love love love how creature fins tails are so unique!!! 🤯😍🤩🙃
yess Court! and you already know I'm here for all the vids lol, but fr take care of your body. ugh, it literally made me so sad that you were having so much anxiety and stress abt your first swim, but it looks amazing and you will always be my fav! love you !! oh and also what are the names for at the end of allure vids? okay byeeee!!
I have sensory issues as well. Thank you for talking about this! Proud of you for working through it and also working hard to prep yourself for that tail. Btw you look extremely beautiful in that tail. Im glad you found a solution to your problem! :)
BEAUTIFUL ! ! ! !
Thank you so much!
Oh my gosh Courtney you're so strong! You have the determination of a shark, and the wisdom of a whale! You're so amazing! Honestly though, you having your "problems" Can be a gift! Because you have these pains, you appreciate other things more people don't, In a way, it gives you more excitement in your life, but that's ignoring the negatives. But there are loads of positives with your "problems"
Thank you so much for the kind words!
@@CourtneyMermaid You are more than welcome! Thank you so much for the videos you post and the wisdom you share!
Wow, this sort of gave me a feel to what a silicone tail feels like(I say sort of cuz I've never been in a tail yet) but I'm glad you were able push through, and the tail looks absolutely gorgeous!! Even if you weren't able to wear the tail, I would still love your content, because your fabric tails(as well as your personality)are amazing!
Yaaaasss i was waiting for this video for a while and it was soo worthit this was amazing😍 thank you so much!!!💞
WoooW... gorgeous tail
THE LONG AWAITED VIDEO! hey court
Omg I was crying watching this 😂 for me moments like this are so so so heartmooving 💗💗💗💗 Thank you so much for share this moovie and your comment with other mermaids. Greetings from Poland 🧜🏻♀️🥰
~~ Dragon Kriss and Siren Luna
Oh we forgot about something... My "Siren feets" are hurting too. I have a foot deformation (anyway, I am a disabled person with a lot of health problems and my husband (dragon Kriss) is helping me everyday in my life and support me with my Dreams about mermaiding). We are currently working on creating a monofin at home that will reduce the load on the feet and transfer it to the upper parts of legs. We hope this will help me swim and will be an idea for other mermaids who suffer from health problems. Keep safe and always have a smile on your face :)
U are my favorite mermaid!!!!
The dorsal side is absolutely gorgeous
O Wow!!! So gorgeous!!! I love it! I am making my silicone mermaid tail by myself and it’s really good to know how is the feeling when you swing for the first time with. 👍🤩 💙🧜♀️🌊💦💙🐬🐠🐡🐙🐚🌈
*Ha never thought this day would come I’m pleasantly surprised*
ur tail looks amazing and congratz
I never thought this would happen!!
Now that time has gone by, I really appreciate this video more than I ever expected to. I don't really share this online a lot but I personally have a bad leg. 10 years ago I broke off a piece of my heel and it reattached with cartilage so it is very flexible and squeezes my tendon and as I'm getting older I'm realizing more how this affects my daily life and how some days I just feel like walking is just too painful by the end of the day. On top of that I am mentally ill but we haven't found what specifically it is yet, and part of that is sensory overload and I have skin sensitivity that is super ridiculous so sound and touch can be a problem for me at times. I really appreciate having someone else who has similar limitations but openly speaks about them to help remember I'm not alone and these things are still possible even with them
Congrats! A full silicone tail is a dream come true for so many mermaids! Good on you for doing the work to be prepared for it! What made you decide to go with Creature Fins for your tail?
I've been a fan of Ceature Fins for a while now and her work has always had a style that I've found really personally appealing. I love the fine details and beautiful craftsmanship. I had the opportunity to meet her in person and that pretty much sealed it for me. ♥
I would love to see a video of just tons of up close shots of this tail so we can see the details!
You look magical!❤️
woooo congrats on getting a silicone tail even During covid!!
you should consider trying to make an H2o silicone mermaid tail 😆
I have been waiting for this video. Nyeh heh heh
I know the first time I swam in a neoprene tail the suction caught me off guard and almost freaked me out. I can't imagine the feeling of a silicone tail doing that.
I would love to know how you avoid foot cramps. That sounds really helpful.
YASSSSSS
Oh wow I'm first that hasn't happened to me before
Your feet look so slim in this tail so it looks even more realistic 😍
I wonder how long before the intro and outtro change to include the tail😁
Not exactly about the point of the video but oh my Ghost, I remember having a moment like that when I finally understood the meaning of Uncle Fester's name lol 😂
Where did you buy your silicone tail would love to know
Creature fins
I still can’t believe you have a silicone mermaid tail
I have been dieing to see this.... Can this tail look any more realistic!
Im glad you found a solution for your heels with the monofin and can now enjoy swimming it :)
btw what was that solution you never said or did a video on it lol so im curious how did you fix it? 🧜♀️❤
So lovely to see you getting your first silicone tail. It may have already been asked but what's the durability compared to your thick material tail? Is it worth the extra £££
Is there somewhere to find Creature Fins work?
how did you fix the heel problem?
THAT FLUKE!!!
Glad youre sharing this experience. Silicone tail never seem to be an option for me, I prefer to be comfortable. I can understand its a disappointing feeling. Maybe its able to change the monofin underneath it?
Hi!
I was wondering where you got your silicon tail I can't find where the website is creature fins is my dream tail but I don't know how to buy one please get back to me
what is the weight of the tail
also it looks really nice, especailly with the little spikes/details on the back.
Whare did you get your silicone mermaid tail I want to get one I’m looking on amazon you look beautiful in it I too suffer from anxiety panic attacks and depression so I understand you
Hey, Courtney have you gone to a Podiatrist?
Hi
I had a ghout attack n its painful as the foot pocket keep rubbing on it even with sock. So i hv to wait til it wears off n then i can wear it again. I guess if theres any internal injuries any mermaid merman shud rest n dont force it or else we might end up not getting to swim in fin anymore.
Haven't seen a lot of your other videos yet, so not sure if you've mentioned it..but the meltdowns and sensory issues made me wonder. Are you neurodiverse too? 😄☺
Love this tail on you!! So sad you've had so much issues the first time though.
@MermaidRara diagnosed autistic and hsp here! So it made me wonder too! 😄
its okay its not your fault and don't feel bad but i hope you get better soon so yeah.
also the sensory things you mention sound like autism and a kind of special version of claustrofobia which in general mostly also is related to it.
I am quite positive you already know about the autism part and might have actually mentioned it already, but I am not sure about that so treat it as a uncertainty instead.
for me there is something similar and while I hate sharp things and seems and things being so tight they prevent movement I do sometimes actually like such high pressure and such. also if you want to try to overcome it you could kind of make it a roleplay. essentially see the presure suddenly building up like actually shape shifting, so getting into role. ofcource it is logic that if you aren't used to actual shape shifting you might even see that experience as kind of close to panicking early on. for you that can be helpfull however since any panick like thing or irritation you could kind of play that they are due to the transformation/change.
in my case I didn't need such things, but still it is great, also eventually switch to focus on the underwater world that way you change your perspective and instead of being stuck you are free(also is especially nice if you can reach high speeds so if you use artificial tails instead of normal transformation then you might be great of looking for fast and efficient fins. higher speeds mean you can do fast things and more easily react of stress and such.
if nothing works then make some kind of drum or such, it doesn't need to look like a drum but it is nice if it can make some sounds and such or similar things, drumming is a insane way to efficiently work away stress and fear and get comfortable in a place. for example I once was in a small wooden box/cage for quite a while and back then I was insanely claustrofobic for thigns like that. probably still am, but I managed to calm myself and actually kind of get over it for then by just drumming on the cage/box despite really only being able of barely moving at all. when I felt it comming I would just kind of drum and focus on that and it worked quite well even if it didn't sound like full music or such.
learned that one from some kind of shaman I once met, that shaman like person(mostly self thought nature shaman) just talked to me about some things in the past and how it learned things, I noticed some things and such and so figured out that drumming should be really usefull for overcomming fear and such.
now I say it perhaps I should try that again, since I notice I am much more durable and faster when I don't fear or such.
Does anybody know if she made a video about how she fixed the problem? I really wanna know haha
I haven’t yet, but I have a feeling I’ll put something together over the summer to talk about it! ❤️
i want to get one but the flipper part on the heels would feel to gross
How many have a silicone tail anyway? Unless your doing some kind of professional thing that could require it
Do you have a fan mail address/PO box? I'd love to send you some fan mail!!
Have you seen a chiropractor?
im 57 and believe it or not i want now to be a merman...i think i would fill a niche thats empty..all mer people are young and slender/ beautiful....im in good shape but people ive told about my dream they think im crazy...nobody wants to see old people they say....i have tail mods/designs in mind that may bring a different look to merman
Kan I somehow by a mermaid tail from u??
girl you should see a doctor if you haven't already
Congrats🥳 I LOVE IT 😍 I hope i can get mermaid to🧡💛
