What do you guys think about acrylic nails on a girl?

I have them now, sometimes I won't have them for a while, but sometimes I do.What do you guys think about acrylic nails on a girl?
My husband LOVES them on me. He thinks they are very pretty and also likes me to scratch his back with them. And give him a scalp massage with them. They feel good for that =)





I do just a bit of white at the tips.





And he cares less when I don't have them, though, too!What do you guys think about acrylic nails on a girl?
They are just a pain in the butt to deal with. I hate having to get them filled every week. And it's not worth the pain when they break off. I would rather have a natural nail any way.
some might hate them, some might love them. but


you probably lost most of them at the word ';acrylic.';
Guys really don't care just as lone as they look nice and half of them don't' even know what they are.
pretty feminine, but tht's not....(um how can i say this w/o being perverted)....a feature of women's anatomy i've really focused on...( couldn't think of anything, could have only been said 1 way)
i have had mine for almost five years and my boyfriend loves them on me, so i would say they don't care unless they are ugly.
I dont like them.





its totally fake,





fake is out.





who grows big white things with pretty glitter designs NATURALLY?





come on. get REAL now.
Personally I like natural
Horrible, complete turn off.
80% of us don't know what acrylic nails are.


Including me.
trassshhyy
There okay, but to be completely honest I could care less what nails a girl has...
i think you should explain what acrylic nails are
Not a fan.
I think of prostitution when I see those... so yeah, that should give you an idea.
i'm a girl but i'll answer, it looks fake and it's not pretty

How do I remove these stupid acrylic nails?

I had acrylic nails put on yesterday and I hate them. I can't type, I can't change the babys nappy and they really hurt. Every time I touch them they hurt my fingers. So I remove them? Will it be harder because I only just had them put on?





This is what I get for being vain.How do I remove these stupid acrylic nails?
soak them in acetone nail varnish remover for at least half an hour and file them down if they dont budge! or go back to the nail shop and pay 拢10 to get them removed xxHow do I remove these stupid acrylic nails?
The best thing to do is go to a nail salon and have the people remove them for you. Don't bite them off. It will make your nails beds really sore. If you don't have the time to go to a nail salon then what you can do is get some nail polish remover and soak your fingers in it and the acrylic nails should melt off or get soft. If they don't completely melt off then you can pick them off if they are soft or just soak them longer. This may take a lot of time but it will work.
I had my nails done once and i ended up taking them off the next day because i could not change my kids diapers(you call them nappies), i could not type like you just said and my fingers hurt also.I called a friend of mine who went to beauty school and said to SOAK them in nail polisher removed that has Acatone in it.I did that but it still was a ***** to get them off.It took me hrs to get them off and the acrylic did not all come off at once either some of it was still stuck it came off over time. I haven't got the nails done since lol im just not use to having long nails and they suck when you have kids.
They take time to get used to. No one is more virtuous for not having them.





Anyway, what I always advise is taking a cotton ball and saturating it in acetone, place it on your nail and wrap each nail in foil. It will take about 30 minutes and they should be melted enough to scrape off. I would advise waiting a couple of days because it sounds like they damaged your cuticle area (shouldnt happen with a good tech) so putting acetone on them so soon might hurt
its probably because u just had them put on, you will get used to them in a few days. but if you really want them off head down to the drug store/pharmacy and buy some acetone. soak em in there, it dissolves the acrylic cement that binds the fake nail on.





oh i should also add, they almost destroy your nail putting them on so they bind well to your real nails, so you should invest in some nail strengthening treatments too because your nails will look shocking for a few weeks after.
I understand the hurt, you must have just received a new full set! I would recommend keeping them since you wanted your hands to look nice anyway. The throbbing pain will subside in a few days, if not then try this.....( the link)





it was a previously asked question and got good answers
Soak them in Acetone, you can buy it at drugstores. You have to do it for a while or it doesnt work. Try filing them down to a comfortable size otherwise?
Usually you need something with acetone in it to soften the glue.


DON'T bite them off, it leaves behind glue and it ruins your nails.
You can go back to the nail place and they will take them off for you. It takes longer than it did to get put on and is painful.

How do I keep my french acrylic nails that I got done at the salon, from looking bad?

I got my nails done a week ago, and I usually wait 3 weeks before getting them filled. The edges around the bottom always look tacky beacause they lift up and I was wondering if there was some way I could make them look better.How do I keep my french acrylic nails that I got done at the salon, from looking bad?
you can file the bottom gunk off, and then paint them with clear nail polish.How do I keep my french acrylic nails that I got done at the salon, from looking bad?
get them done every 2 weeks
They have over the counter supplies that you can get at any pharmacy. If they are popping up, they weren't applied correctly. You can use an itty bitty bit of superglue to re adhere them. If they already need to be filled in, purchase the powder and fill them in. DO NOT use Acetone nail polish remover to take off the polish. It makes the superglue come apart. You MUST use NON ACETONE nail polish remover.
Stay away from washing dishes , unless you wear gloves ! Alcohol is a sure killer !
if you want your nails to look nice at all times you need to make an appointment every two wks. i would not even mess with them it makes matters worse.
You have to be super careful with Acrylics when they start to separate from the nail. This causes water to get in between the nail and the acrylic and will cause a fungal infection. Luckily this fungus is very easy to see b/c it will look like dirt or green stuff under your nail.Mine sometimes separate at the top if I wait too long for a fill but if they are separating from the bottom you need to talk to your nail tech about using stronger glue or letting the acrylic set longer or something.


If your nail tech doesn't take this seriously I would find another b/c if you ever wear color you might not notice a fungus and they can get so bad that you would lose your nail, unlikely since you see someone every three weeks but still something to think about.





Some people's nails grow faster than others and you may just be one of those people that has to go more often.
First, quit getting acrylic. They lift to easily. Get gel. Don't wait three weeks, go every two. Also, try not to get them too long, that makes them lift faster. Try not to wash dishes too much without using gloves, and type too much!

You get what you pay for when buying cheap products not designed to be used by a licensed nail professional! Good luck!
i'm not sure if this is a professional but it's very high quality so try nailene.

  • What are the health dangers of breathing fumes from acrylic nails?

    I work in an office next to a nail salon. The fumes from the acrylic nails permeate into our office space to the point where you'd think we were the nail salon. Its awful and even our customers complain.What are the health dangers of breathing fumes from acrylic nails?
    Cancer is a risk. The biggest one is that the people may have fungus on their nails when the powder is ground off (which is the powder that flys in the air). You may be breathing in the fungus. Nasty, huh?What are the health dangers of breathing fumes from acrylic nails?
    Asked a guy I know who is a chemist. He used to work with the same chemicals in the lab. They had to have tight monitoring of levels and they could only be used in a fume cabinet. He says he is amazed that OH%26amp;S allows them to operate like they do. Try looking up MSDS's of Ethyl Methacrylate and Methyl Methacrylate to get some info

    What other then monomer can be used to do acrylic nails?

    Can I make that liquid myself ? do I HAVE to use a monomer in order to do acrylic nails?What other then monomer can be used to do acrylic nails?
    umm dont cheap out and do it yourself. im a guy so i may not know these things, but they are made by professionals for a reason. in case you make a mistake and end up making mustard gas ( highly killer toxic gas) you want nails go get a manicure or pedicure

    How do girls with very long acrylic nails maintain their hygiene?

    I know this may sound funny (and it is kind of) but this question has bothered me for a while but I've never had the guts to actually ask someone. I had gotten some a few months ago and they were not long at all. But they were very uncomfortable. I can't understand how women with those long nails do. If you have or have had extremely long nails I want to know how do you do your daily tasks? How do you wipe yourself? Do you clean down there?How do girls with very long acrylic nails maintain their hygiene?
    hmmm extra TP in the bathroom. a washcloth or sponge for downstairs. one of those nail-cleaning sticks for under the nails.... long fake nails help for washing your hair, so i have found, because you can really dig into your hair with the shampoo %26amp; conditioner, giving your hair a really deep clean.





    i think acrylics are uncomfortable at first too but i got used to them within a week. but they rip my contact lenses so i cant wear them much :( but i better get ready for them because prom is next month! haha





    good question!How do girls with very long acrylic nails maintain their hygiene?
    always wondered that myself...
    Very, very carefully!!!
    people still do that? i thought that went out of style in 02 or something, I always thought they were so ugly anyways.
    It is a really stupid question.





    Fake or not women with long nails can be just as clean as ones that don't have them.
    Dont play with your cltoris let your man do it
    Well, my nails aren't really long, and some women do have them long, but you get a washcloth and use it. nails dont really make a factor, because something else is washing you.





    If they were uncomfortable to you, when I have the fake nails you buy at the store on... my mouth swells up a bit, and It only happens the first few days, but it's some sort of chemical in the glue or the nails. Not sure which one.





    Ask your nail lady though, that's what she's there for. Dont get really long nails if you aren't comfortable with them.
    Perhaps they use a reaching tool or a robotic buttwiper.
