Fake/False Nails

---

I'm thinking about getting false nails for my vacation. I bite my nails and Im 13 years old so I thought it is a good idea. I'll have it done in a nail salon/nail bar. But I'm going on vacation so will swimming in a swimming pool affect the false nail or real nail underneath? Is there anything I should do as extra for when I have false nails? Is there a safe way to take false nails off without damaging the nail or without it hurting? I'm a 13 year old, is it too young to have fake nails? Thanks, please reply, i would be grateful if you had the answers to my questions

I believe they file your nails down, to almost nothing, then add the acrylic nails. Plus the glue. If I was a girl, I would never have it done. It ruins your nails. Just dont bite them, chew gum instead. Have a fun vacation

Yea , wear fake nails , theres nothing wrong about it . Except for the fact that youll become a stupid fake bitch. Your decision.

>Except for the fact that you`ll become a stupid fake bitch

Wow a bit harsh don't you think.

To the Poster just talk it over with the nail tech about your situation he/she should be able to give you some advice.

Sometimes you have to ignore some of these posters, especially the ones who want to call people names for no reason because its "cool"

If having some false nails makes you feel better about yourself, and maybe more confident, then go for it.........don't take any notice of what other people say, do what you feel is right for you

your such an asshole to people for no reason

That really wasn't necessary. I have alot of friends who wear fake nails. Even my sisters. Does that mean they're a "stupid fake bitch". People like you are really sick.

Well, I have fake nails. I've seen younger girls than you getting thier nails done. Swimming won't damage the nails. And when your ready to get them off, go back to the nail place and they will 'soak' them off. Doesn't hurt at all. Your nails are a bit weaker when you get them off, but they grow back.Also, go to a place that will spray an anti-fungal spray on your nails. That way you won't get any nasty infections.To the name calling dillhole, my man happens to like paying for my nails so he can get a nice back scratch from them. I also know a few women that have liked my nails for that reason...Angel, are you interested?

I didnt call any names. I didnt even insult anyone , I said in case blah blah.I wonder what reasons someone could have to wear FAKE nails except to be cool or to look mature or bs like this

Is someone else logging into your account?

They're useful if you have weak nails or other nail probems.

I spoke to a guy who plays Flamenco guitar about technique. My nails are short, so I play with my fingertips, which is very limiting. You can wear finger picks for folk and other types of guitar music, but I've never seen a Flamenco guitar player outfitted with them. Anyway, the guy suggested fake nails, at least on the fingers of the right hand. He was not joking.

In reply to: I also know a few women that have liked my nails for that reason...Angel, are you interested? Lish you know i would be kiss

Well good for you. Its great that at least someone is doing something usefull with theyr life. But i really doubt SHE needs nails to play Flamenco. I dont really think she knows what flamenco is,but whateva. Im still waiting to her her reason for FAKE nails and chances are shell use either 'mature' or 'cool' in her reply .. or she may lie something up , but as I said, whateva

What does it matter what she wants them for?? It's her fingers to do with what she pleases.

Why are you so against fake nails. Did someone scratch you up with them or something? My goodness. Fake nails can be helpful with a lot of things. I don't wear them but they aren't for just looking at. So just chill ok?

I didn't realize that this topic would cause such a varied response. Call me a fake bitch or whatever you want. You don't even know me. I currently have fake nails and I wear them because I feel more confident and their easy to maintain than my natural nails. My natural nails are short and I can't help but bite them. With fake nails, I can't bite my nails and my nails grow to my desired length. Thank you for all those who have given good advice.
