[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do not like the trashy comments on here. That is unkind and out of bounds. But you long nail advocates cannot argue against the hygiene and chemicals aspects. You just can't. Long nails are dirty. I guarantee you don't have a hand washing routine that negates it. And having fake nails exposes you to a bunch of things that are harmful and unnecessary. Many of us don't want our kids exposed to that stuff. That is not pearl-clutching. Most of us who are anti nails have solid reasons for finding them repulsive and not wanting people with them on touching food we will eat or similar (and I don't blame that lady for changing hair dressers).[/quote] If I worked as a nurse or in food service, no I would not have them. But I work in an office and don't eat with my hands so don't see a problem. I bet a lot of you who are so obsessed with chemicals used in acrylic nails don't have a problem with injecting botox into your face or using a plethora of other chemicals on your body. Spare me the outrage. [/quote] That is a sad that the only way you can defend yourself is to throw out baseless accusations. No, I don't use botox either and have no interest. Some of us are consistent out there.[/quote] Defend myself????? Against what? The fact that you have nothing better to do than worry about what I wear is not something I need to defend against.[/quote] Try to consider this a bit of a tough love. As I said, I a lot of people around you, people you see every day, think what some of us have said here. A lot of people draw negative conclusions about you because of your nails. This is just a fact. Now, you might not care, "I love my nails, I have the right" etc. If you really don't care what other people think about you, fine. It's the price you are willing to pay. However, it looks like you weren't fully aware of what other people think about your nails, and you. Yes, you as a person, although it's "just nails". If I were you I, too, would be upset and angry to find that out, but also, I would keep it in mind going forward. [/quote]
