Long nails or short?

[wend]

I took jui jitsu for a little while...it IS fun (until you have to roll around on the ground with a sweaty, stinky, fat man). It was actually that, in part, that compelled me to start lifting again. I realized that no matter what my martial arts skills were, I wouldn't be able to do much if I wasn't also STRONG.

I try to use a nail strengthener for mine. It helps..I think its Sally Hansen..it is awesome strenghtener. I have bitten my nails for years but I have stopped now.....now I just have a problem with them splitting....Im thinking of getting acrylic nails but they would have to be sports length because I flip them off everytime I do something.

I have medium length acrylic with rounded tips. I like french and all colors. Right now I have on OPI's Shangri la-la lilac, they are the color of easter eggs.

Once my nails get to a certain length -- they break off or peel off.

I have same problem and I´d like my nails long. Is there something I can do with them? Is there some vitamin which makes nails stronger? Help!!

The thread title is "Long nails or short?" I would like to post "I`m a little surprised at all the short nails are better replies I`ve read, I like short nails myself actually. I`m not into the cat woman type nails."

If you would also write that this post is from Gonelifting, I would appreciate that.

Thanks
gonelifting is having a cow in C and C to get this posted

Medium length to long but cannot stand acrylic on them. Feels like i can't scratch or I'm scratching with plastic.

And to lady viking you need lots of calcium, but most of nails and hair is genetics

Woman should only have short nails--long nails are for strippers and hookers and are not attractive.

Avenirup, I knew you were really a woman! (Didn't the last guy to change his gender to post in here get banned from this forum or something?)

Mine are long at the moment but I am about to trim them down to a nice short length. They are getting in the way of my lifting & typing.

Krav Maga sounds like such a cool art to learn. I have been thinking about taking those classes for awhile now.
