All those that sport false long talons on their fingers clearly look stooopid. You only have to look at their fingers to see that most of them have a very short nail bed, so going over the top with a huge nail is just absurd. Wear false nails according to the size of this 'bed' if a nail cant be grown naturally. I used to have acrylics once a month about 10 years ago, but I'm still suffering with 'soft' nails this long after, which means I have to keep my nails short as they tend to 'bend' easily, and my nail bed is about average. So they clearly ruined my nails.
A friend of mine has a long nail bed, so she only has to grow her nail a fraction and when painted they look spectacular.
