I get the acrylic tips because I have short fingers. They maje them look nice and long. Now I'm not going lie and tell you they will not be painted the colors of the Italian flag for Columbus Day OR the colors of the South African flag when the Springboks smash Barmy Army. I was tempted to paint them the colors of the Trinidad flag for carnival. Some girls get pictures. I know for for 9-11 a lot of salons were doing patriotic airbrushing for free. Once you wear them awhile, you get used to it.

Depends on where you live. I used to think the same thing then I met girls from NYC and girls from New Jersey. Younger girls more into the hiphop lifestyle will opt for the creative nails. Older ladies tend to get plain manis and french nails. But sure! I got into the whole nail obsession watching black girls' nails.

I think it's all just really neat. The more intricate and outrageous they are, the more impressed I usually am. However, when one goes for the crazy colors and airbrushing, does that not limit what one can wear during that time? Must one's nails not clash with their clothes? Or is that generally not a concern?
