Fake nails

Please have the hosts tone it down with their nails! It is very distracting and doesn’t do anything for the items being sold. Matter of fact it makes them look cheap.

Some look niece but I can't figure out those white ones that don't fit the shape of

nail. Are they glued on and do-it-yourself deal? Doesn't look like a nail tech would do such a poor job.

I find the hosts on JTV to be by far the most offensive, as far as fake nails.

IMO the unnatural colors like blue and green are hideous. Those and the ones with designs certainly do distract from the product being shown.

I can remember when the hosts weren't allowed to wear such colors.

Seemed like they were going more natural for a long time now back to fake. Maybe new management directive.

JTV is the most offensive as far as the nail length but I have heard Misty say that they are only allowed to wear whites or light pink colors.

While your opinion is valid and many concur, it doesn't seem to matter or acted upon by decision makers in the company.

Kathy Levine wrote in one of her books that the Q hosts are only allowed to have very natural looking nails with light colors. Sometimes Kathy who had long but natural nails would go red.

Yes. Saw that today. 6 in daggers with multiple colors. They were distracting and she was wearing jeans with holes
what is she 15?

The "nails" are always an alert for me ... and kind of tacky.

I think they are meant to be a distraction so that you don't notice the flaws in what they are selling.

I agree the fake nails are just too much especially the ones that have sharp points. I know it seems silly that something would distract but those fake nails look terrible in my opinion. I guess it is the trend and some have to follow the trends. Some of the hosts are so fake these days. I miss the old hosts that seemed more genuine.

I think dress codes in general went out the door with Covid.

Add the fake hair and the fake eyelashes to that. Disgusting.

The ones I really don't like on QVC hosts are the ones with dark dot things sprinkled on them. Distracting. It looks like some large insect came along and pooped on your nails or something.😲

So many postings here make me LOL. And I agree with them.

Doesn't matter to me what kind of nails they have. I enjoy looking at some of them, get ideas for colors and although I don't do designs on my nails, I do like to look at them on other people.

I think those are new almond shapes. They do look like daggers especially with red polish. Distracting.

The exgerated nail decor started about 2 years ago with 2 new hosts starting at QVC .... Vanessa & Monifa ... Somebody should tell them to tone it down. because it looks "clownish"
