Artificial Fingernails

Don't get me wrong. I wore them when I was working and they do enhance a woman's hand. What I don't understand is the different color on each nail. It's not attractive, IMO, and detracts from what is being presented. Hosts, please pay attention to "under" the nails. With HD TV, the grime that shows up just looks plain dirty and not hygienic. Short, clean nails like Kirstin's are lovely.

As well as a neat, clean manicure. The ragged cuticles and grown out polish is awful. PRIDE!

@pattypeep I don't think your post matches your signature line.😂

I noticed when I got that China polish that if it had metallic color in it, it looked dirty all the time, no matter how clean I got them, it looked dirty. I quit doing that, started using solid regular colors and do them myself. Sometimes I just manicure and use clear polish and they look much nicer than having sparkles and each nail a different color and some of them two or three colors. That looks like what my mother would say " a street walker."

Wonder which host instigated this thread. There's always a trigger.

The trend today is to wear different colors or designs on each nail. I wear permanent French gel but a few times during the year, usually, holidays, I have a design on my nail but usually just the pointer finger. Many younger ladies & men wear different colored nails but not artificial

The latest pointed acrylic cat claws are the most distracting...I believe Courtney (aka Coco) started wearing those first, then the others followed this trend.

I don't see how peoople with really long and especially pointed ones, can do things! I was told by a person in the beauty profession that you just get used to them and they are no problem. I know I would be stabbing myself in the eye all the time if I had them!

My doctor told me years ago, artificial nails are toxic.

Nails are porous.

Anytime you are hospitalized and examined they looks at the nails.

Color and condition.

Well--I like the different ways of manicures --style , color, type, decor--I can't do manis--my nails are horrilbe from chemo years ago. IF they grow, I usually keep them very short. Dirty fingernails are gross no matter how long or the color. I am getting my first set of acylics however, as I am a MOG for upcoming wedding. I did have one mani a hundred years ago---so this will be my 2nd one.I agree people in the limelight should take good care of their hands and nails.

I think Leah has the Most Beautiful nails of any of the Q hosts !! 🤗

I’ve never seen her nails not looking anything but perfect. And she does them herself !! Amazing!!

She must be saving herself a boat load of money doing them herself.

I don’t know about You but I find myself more in Awe of anything Natural….
and anything fake makes me look away. 🤗🤗🤗

The different colors on the nails, the designs, whether done in polish or the 'ornaments' stuck on, the glitter nails and the pointy witchy looking nails are too much for any host. There are always close-ups, no matter what is being presented, and these foolish looking nails are unprofessional. You'd think Mgmt. would have a set of rules for something like this. I find myself looking at the nails and not the item being presented. Some are very childish designs and colors.

I wear press ons. They don't need nail glue- there is a tab on each nail. Once you pull off the tab, the nail is ready to press on. I cut and file them. Takes me about 20 minutes to do both hands. I use them on my toes too. I do not want to be tied to having my nails filled every couple of weeks. The press ons come off with soap and water and an orange stick. Picture enlarged to show detail.

@seaBreeze I bet she did not, can you imagine the lawsuit she would have on her hands (so to speak) if she scratched one of them?

Hi! @Lakelife62

Where do you find them? They are nice looking and look like the real deal. 🤗

@AngelPuppy1 it's true you really do get use to them . I've had long natural nails since I was 15 , all the women on my moms side have strong nails . Anyways when I break a nail which doesn't happen often I will cut down all the others to let them grow out together which only takes 3 weeks tops , they grow fast . I cannot pick up things, and I have a hard time doing normal tasks without my nails .💅

@RescueLover I agree with you Leah's nails and hands are the best , she has beautiful hands . I do my own nails and always have I think the one and only time I had a manicure was for my wedding. Easier and cheaper to do them myself and I don't have to go anywhere to get them done !😊

I also feel Courtney's hands , not her nails are beautiful she doesn't even need those long pointed nails.
