I wore acrylics for a number of years & if done by a skilled nail artist they look beautiful, long or short.
Unfortunately good salons are hard to come by now, and "cheap" Mall salons are popping up everywhere. Their hygiene practices are atrocious, their skills terrible, & products questionable. These people give acrylics a bad name by giving people infections, ruining natural nails, using illegal chemicals because they're cheap & ugly looking acrylic nails.
If you get acrylics or gels, please please please make sure you pay for quality, don't go to a cheap salon as you'll definitely get what you paid for, and maybe a whole lot more.
The reason I stopped getting acrylics is because it just cost too much in the long run, infills being $50AU every 3 weeks. I'd rather spend that on makeup! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
