Plastic Fingernails

I've got a thing about this at the moment ...

Is it just me or does everybody like these so-called French manicure nails that are overly long and plastic?

I have naturally very long fingernails by choice which I manicure daily if not two or three times and I used diamond or glass nailfiles which are wherever I am (and I pedicure twice a week) .... but I cannot abide these squared plastic obscenities (for lack of a better word). Do women really 'function' with these things attached to their hands ?????? I dread to think of some situations ......

Any thoughts out there ... male or female ????

 

My sis inlaw has them LoL. She has them done every month, a few days before there renew'd she Cleans her house from top to bottom, because she can't do it with the new nails :o Can you believe That :hehe: mine are lovely in the winter, but come spring/summer there a mess...

 

How do you do any gardening with long fingernails and not end up with them either broken or half the garden soil undr them? Enquiring minds wish to know :cnfs:

 

Can't abide the square plasticky looking nails and I cannot understand why anyone would want them.
The glue they use damages the live nail underneath it all. Those nails look unnatural.

I have good strong nails and there is no-way anyone is going to stick plastic imitations, all square and lumpy looking on my nails.

There....that's me off my soap box for now.:flag:

 

I have a name for them "cashier nails"-I`ve lost count of how many times I have had to stand waiting for someone to manouevre( how is that spelt again?!) their way round the coppers I get back in change, but I do understand people trying to take a pride in their appearance so it doesn`t wind me up that much.

Me-I haven`t got nails-far too busy with my hands in mud in summer or pastry in winter. Now people who cook with rings on YEUCK!!

 

I agree.:gnthb:

 

I'd be glad of any finger nails.
The only time I have any is after a 2 week holiday.
What with work the garden and everything else, they just can't take my life style. LOL:lollol:

 

Thanks Bobj-great idea and definitely one I will use.

 

Sounds like a great idea, will give it a go.
