I don't get it. Women with glitter, decals and other loud embellishments on their nails look so trashy. If you're a young girl, sure. Even a teenager or possibly very young adult. But women over the age of, say, 21 shouldn't decorate their claws in such a juvenile fashion.

I don't even like an extreme French manicure (especially with those icky fake tips) - looks like porn star nails. The latest trend is those fake polish sticker things that look like tiger stripes or checkerboards. Tacky tacky tacky.

I agree! I don't like designs on pedicures either. Long fingernails creep me out too, whether they're real or fake.

I've always wondered how women with those long banana peel (think edward scissorhands)like nails wipe their butts?

I asked a cashier that exact question before and she showed me a sideways wiping technique. I think its gross...I can only imagine what crap is stuck under those things! Hahaha...literally crap stuck underneath them!

I made the mistake of wearing polish that had small sparkles in it, and I swear it took half a bottle of polish remover, about an hour, and a small scraping tool to get that crap off my nails, never again.

Lightly sparkled nail polish is one thing - that can be tasteful and cute - blinged out crusty glitter is something else. Like some rap guy's teeth or something.
 
I feel the same way about older women who suddenly think its a great idea to get a tattoo... at least gaudy nails aren't permanent.

In addition to the ghetto nails, the size of her hoop earrings lets you know how big of a hoe she is.

I always have a design on my nails :eyebrow:

just one finger, and they are my real nails..but I like it. It's fun, it cheers me up, and I like them.

I knew a guy years ago that complained to me about his wife in her 50's wearing the same clothes as the middle and high school teenagers. For a while there, she was wearing skirts up to her butt.

She thought she was still a hot young thing, and although he said he wasn't opposed to his wife looking hot in sexy clothes, he said she looked ridiculous dressing like the teenagers.

Just spotted a news article about Madonna exposing nip at a resent concert in Istanbul... I think this sums up your post...:lol:

Unlke many with the really long ghetto nails, I work for a living. I can't type very well with long nails. I can't clean my house, or cook or cut the grass and do yard work, change a flat tire, fix the plumbing, etc with 3 inch ghetto nails. That, and because I work for a living, I can't afford to go every week and get my ghetto nails painted. Or get my hair did.

SO, I don't have ghetto nails, and I don't like ghetto nails. They are gross!

I know that I'm making an assumption here, or maybe my statement will be considered Profiling, but here goes. The one's with the biggest BLING on the nails are probably the ones that have no job, or might be on some kind of Assistance. When you look under the 3 inch claws, it is dirty looking in most cases. In my opinion, they are very unsanitizing too. I had fake nails for years, and finally got them taken off last year. I wore them short, and didn't have any Bling, but that's because I'm old.

Can you imagine being a teenager and having your mother up on a stage acting like that?

I love my tats, but nobody can see them unless I choose to show them - or they get nekkid, too.
