Fake nails?

its my first time getting them done.Is there different kinds? or is there just one kind?


About how long do they lastFake nails?
acrylic and gel.


They last for about a month. And if you choose to get them taken off, your nails will be in really bad shape for about 5 months, until your real nails completely grow out.


I would suggest just getting a manicure, even though fake nails are really pretty.Fake nails?
If by fake nails you mean acrylics...then they last for about 2 weeks (well you need to go in about every 2 - 3 weeks to get a fill) and you can get a lot of different types. The common acrylic is to get a french manicure but you can make your nails unique by adding a stripe of color behind the white part of the nail. I also have friends who get their ring finger accessorized with like glitter or a flower (on both sides). Call your nail salon and ask them all of your questions....that's the only way to get a 100% accurate answer. (:
There's acrylic, gel, and two other kinds, which I cannot think of at the moment. [at least at the place where I went.] They all have different looks, and styles. They'll let you check them out.





I have gel nails at the moment, and they're pretty good so far. :) They're not that long, because I play sports, but still look nice. I thought they looked the nicest out of the four.

DIFFERENCE;


The gel nails are more natural looking. But gel nails are weaker and you have more chance of breaking them, where acrylic is more durable, and thicker.
you can put different figures on them but theres only 1 kind of nail you have to tell them how long you want them tho. it depends if you take care of them or not on how long they will last. they usually last up to 1 to 2 months ATLEAST........don't get them done at bamboo nails tho cuz they mess them up big time....go to like elite nails or somewhere else.





Good Luck..........hope they turn out how you want
Generally theres 3 kinds. The cheap ones you buy at like Wal Mart. Acyrillic, which are nice but a pain in the butt if you wan't them off. Then gel nails. Theres different types of gel nails, Bio-Sculpture is the best gel. They look real and come off in 2 seconds with no nail damage if you decide you don't want them.





Oh and acyrillic is BRUTALY damaging to your nails. Its horrible. I don't suggest them. But they are cheaper then gel.
ive never had them done in a salon so i dont know about that but the ones you put on yourself can actually look quite good if you take your time putting them on. they will stay on about 2 weeks but its best to take them off after about 10 days to avoid damaging the surface of your nails. to remove them just soak them in a shallow bowl of acetone based nail varnish remover.

i got some Gel Nails yesterday and they are awesome...





i was told they were better than acrylics and they do look much better as my friends has acrylics and she is about to go get hers changed cause mine look way better...





ive been told that i need to get them filled every two or three weeks to keep them looking nice...





i also had a french polish put on with some nail art...they look awesome...just make sure that you look at them properly before you leave as i noticed a slight imperfection before i left and the girl fixed it right up...
acrylic and gel





both last about 3 weeks before u need a fill. runs 25-35.00


go with the gel!





EDIT:


acryclic is the actual nail and thats it. Gel is the acrylic underneath and they add gel on top, gives it shiny gorgeous coat that last longer, for about 5 bucks extra
if they are the ones that you want permanently ( a month or 2) those kind usually stay on 4 the period u want but if u r just useing them 4 a week or a special occasion they stay on 4 about a week if u take good care of them
there are gel kind i think and commonly found acrylic


my nails stayed on for about a month but it depends wat u do like if you work with them do activities with you fingers so it all depends i hope u have fun =]
After 2.5 weeks, acrylic nails begin to look really shoddy. Be prepared for a touch up every two weeks. The $$$ really adds up after a few months.
im not really for fake nails because if it breaks off..... it hurts like a motha******!!! But it is your choice if you want fake nails. Im just givin ya a heads up.
there are acrylic and gel.. i like acrylic.. i think they are cuter.. they both last about a month then you need to get them filled..
Their own only one kind They can last a week or 2 weeks depends on how much wear and tear you put on them.
acrylic and gel.

there are 2 kinds and last for a week. hth
