Hey all,
I was thinking what were your thoughts on acrylics and fake nails in general...
Every couple of years or so, I go through this phase where I want to get my nails done (acrylics), and now is one of those times. I have been a nail biter since I was a kid, and have a stopped biting temporarily a few times here and there, but never permanently. I am preggo and feeling like I need to do something extra to "perk up" my appearance now that I've finally gone from frumpy housewife to doing my hair and makeup every day (this board really helps to motivate me to help me looking my best, too!)
So, I guess I was wondering if you all like them, think they're tacky, too expensive, etc...and If I should just get them, although they get pricey with the fill-ins etc... (I told my husband it was an investment in my self-esteem, lol! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />). Btw, the times I do end up getting my nails done, I usually go for about 3 or 4 months then I quit going and let them grow out/ take 'em off (ouch!)...
So, what do you guys think?
