What are the pros and cons of acrylic nails?
I can't grow my nails out and it drives me crazy. I am wanting to get my nails professionally done. What is the pros and cons of the nails? Would you suggest acrylic nails or gel nails or solar nails?
Hello! I had acrylic nails on almost all the time from the end of 5th grade until the middle of 7th. Sounds crazy, I know - but I always bit at my real nails (horrible habit), but never acrylics, so I kept them on, which trained me out of biting my real nails!(: Although, the cons definatley outweigh the pros. I'd reccomend growing them out as much as possible and just having them painted pretty designs.
Pros:
-They're so pretty - at first. (especially if you get a squared french tip!)
-You get lots of compliments
-They helped me to stop biting my nails
Cons:
-They're quite expensive. When I got acrylics - $35 for the first set, $25 each fill. Solars - $45 for the first set, $35 each fill.
-They can only be filled so many times before they look bad, and if you want to continue getting them (with them looking presentable), you have to get them off and have them redone.
-They absolutley ruin your nails. I still have marks on my nails from them from 2 years ago.
-They break easily (painful!)
-They get dirt under them thats nearly impossible to remove!
