Acrylic nail tips????

Question

okay well my best friend and i were going to go get tips on our nails for the first day of school. and her mom was like okay. and then my best friends older sister gos those hurt way bad. and my best friends mom says well then you cant get them. and were starting volley ball but we wont be setting till like 3 weeks so that wont matter. he moms really really hard to convince how can we convince her without her getting mad?? HELPPPP!!!!!

Answer 1

get gel nails they are much better

Answer 2

If you are starting volleyball, why would you get long nails?  If you go to hit the ball and catch one, it will hurt like h**l.  I had them for a while, and I kept catching them on things, it felt like my fingertips were being torn off.  That and the maintanance gets both expensive and tiring.  Just get a manicure, short nails look nice too.

Answer 3

I've had fake nails on and off for about 4 years and they don't hurt so I have no idea what the sister was talking about. They hurt when they break or your rip them off but why would you do that anyway.

Answer 4

its not suppose to hurt, you might be a little sore from all the filling.  but if you play volleyball, I'd say its a waste of money.  You would break them all off.  I break a nail once a month and I'm a ballet dancer.

Answer 5

don't get them your fingers will be really sore and plus after they come off you nails look like you stuck them in a blender!! you'll regret it they get really week and thin and hella short and bleed ad the top of you nail is like gone!! and they're all white and discolored and then your nail starts to grow out it's like a big bump on top of your nail sick!! please don't do it. just get a manicure with flowers or a regulary french tip the regular really do look nice. please don't you'll regret it. :)
