What kind of nails/nail polish you prefer?

Guys:

What kind of nails and nail polish you prefer on girls? Really long, long, medium, short? French tips, no french tips? What color (neons - pinks, greens, oranges, yellow, blue, any color; dark - black, blue, purple, green... or something like classic red, light pink, light shimmering polish) ? Describe it :D

Girls:

What's your favorite? What do you like the best? And what do you feel most comfortable with? What's the easiest for you? How do they currently look like :D ?

Please write what you are (m/f), so I (and other readers) wouldn't have to guess if you're girl or a guy? XD

Is six coats of nail polish too much?

I bought this gold nail polish, thinking it would be perfect, but it's mainly gold sparkles, not a complete solid color. I have two coats on right now, but I can tell with one more it would be perfect. I also plan on writing the word "Enchanted <3" on my nails in black, so that would be my technical 4th coat. Then I'd do a clear coat, so it'd be five. And since I already have clear coat on the bottom, it's six. Is this too much nail polish though?

Is nail polish a carcinogen?

I heard my mom talking about how nail polish is a carcinogen (something that increases your risk for cancer) and am worried now. I feel like painting my nails (girly but whatever), but I want to be as healthy as I can be. My mom says that it's only with high exposure like with people who work in a salon, but I'm still concerned. Am I making mountains out of molehills?

I need a nail polish color any ideas?

I'm kinda board (even though it's 11:00pm) and I want to paint my nails. I have at least every shade and pink and red, and I have blue, black, and orange. Oh, and white. I'm pretty good at painting my nails so you can give my any ideas even if there advanced (rainbow patterns, stripes, writing etc.) Any suggestions? Btw I'm 11 years old.

Nonsense write ups at work, help?

I work in food service at a retirement home and the supervisors are enough to put me into that home.

Everyday we have "stand-up" where a supervisor recites a bible verse and the supervisors and the boss, along with the servers are all in the kitchen. This is basically "judgement" time, where they can critique you on work uniform and if your hair isn't the right way, or you have gum- they write you up.

My first write up was before I was on the clock and I was on the phone with my sister. (**Note- before I clocked in..) One of the supervisors saw me and reported me.

My second write up was not too long ago and it was about a tardy from 2008, and 2 call in sicks in April. They moved the time-roll back for absences. I asked my supervisor why I'm getting written up for something from 2008 and he commented "I honestly have no idea." But like a good person, I signed the paperwork.

The next write up I will be suspended.

So, I am almost sure to get written up again.

I spend 300+ dollars from Prom, including getting my nails done. (Acrylics) A girl that I work with told me that our boss wrote up 23 people in one day for having their nails done because she does not allow nails or nail polish. I spent a good amount to get them done. Personally I think they look stunning rather than unpainted fingernails.

The girl that told me this also got written up, with a supervisor attempting to rip off her nails before she began working.. Which was very unsuccessful and probably very painful.

I just do not quite understand this policy. They aren't really "supervising". They seem to be looking for a single fault we make, and write us up for it. Sometimes the supervisors will spy from another side of the building's windows and write down notes about us. Please tell me what I should do, and if I should begin looking for a new job.
Thank you.

I have black hair and light olive skin and I can never choose a right nail polish color to wear.

Why is my nail polish peeling?

I have a sally hansen purple nail polish that I used to paint my nails. It's been hours and the color has dried, but its still smudging and if I touch it, it comes off. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Why is this happening? The coat I used wasn't even that thick.

i ran out of nail polish remover, so do u think i should remove my nail polish with white board cleaner? will it turn my nails yellow? or get it damaged? im just wondering, dont write anything bad. hehe

My mom is not a religious fanatic or anything, but she won't let me wear black nail polish. I'm not 'emo' or 'goth', or whatever most posers call themselves, but I just like that color for nails! I'm planning to have a talk with her, but she's very hard to convince and get through to. I know the basic words...what should I say? To convince? She's afraid I'll become goth... o_v

Ode to Red Nail Polish

Flowing smoothly from the brush
You gradually cover my nails
And turn them red with excitement
You are the other become me
The object caught up in subjecthood
I love transforming into you
And love you becoming me
I love you as the perfect object
In which I trace myself
And the gentle subject
To which I submit as object
I love growing into you
And you growing into me
I love you on my nails
And wish them forever yours!

Question: Is nail polish bad for your nails?

I wear nail polish ALL THE TIME but since I'm older now, I have been wondering if nail polish is actually bad for you. I'm not talking about actually trying to drink or sniff it, I just mean wearing it normally. Nail polish remover can remove permanent marker stains right, so if it can do that, what effect will it have on your nails?

I just talked to my aunt and she said she'll let her daughter (my cousin) paint her nails as long as the colors don't make her look mature like a teenager or an adult.

I'm thinking of getting my cousin pastel colors. What other colors should I get her? What colors should she stay away from? Are neon or bright colors okay for an 8 year old?
I gave my cousin a pack of nail polish last week, but her mother made her give it back to me and I gave that pack away to my niece.
