I love them. Not my style, but love seeing people express themselves through clothes. Even when it is not my personal style I can still appreciate it. Bright, fun, colourful :)

CustardCream31 · 10/07/2025 12:02

Love them!!!

Makingpeace · 10/07/2025 12:03

No.

abrigot · 10/07/2025 12:05

Love them.

I’d give anything for long nail beds like yours, you’re so lucky!

ImAPreMadonna · 10/07/2025 12:06

No to the colour and the ‘feature’ nails (a strong dislike on that from me). They are all manicured however.

StMarie4me · 10/07/2025 12:09

Fun!

dollyblue01 · 10/07/2025 12:10

Abit Barbie like for my taste

midnightsanxster · 10/07/2025 12:11

no, sorry they look tacky. I prefer something classier

but if you like the then that is all that matters.

SquallyShowersLater · 10/07/2025 12:13

No. Any sort of 'nail art' gives me the heebee jeebees. I like a manicure, but I am a strictly short and squoval girl, no extensions, no patterns, no motifs, no pointy shapes, no excessive length, no diamantes, no stick on shit, no glitter, no frosting, none of those AWFUL clear varnish on the nail bed with just the edge of the tip picked out in a dark colour. Urrgh. They make it look like you've got filthy nails and need to give them a good scrub.

And I only ever pick from a range of very classic colours. Nudes/neutrals, a sort of bubblegum pink or watermelon/coral for the summer when I am a bit tanned, or any of the very, very deep burgundy black/reds for the rest of the year when I am pale.

tartyflette · 10/07/2025 12:14

I think they look really good, lovely and summery, I hope you're very happy with them. They're not for me but why would you or anyone else care about that? Just admire and enjoy them.

BigClassyNails · 10/07/2025 12:15

I think people who use "trashy" or "classy" to describe someone's nails, don't understand the meaning of the word.

How does one show classiness with their nail color? You could roll off someone's husband's with a perfectly MN acceptable beige manicure and then rob a bank. I'm not sure the nails would make any difference.

I think the way you speak to someone shows "classy" or "trashy".

Just say you don't like them, or they're not your style. But if you're behaving in a way that would get your children detention for bullying, you're the trash.

Berlinlover · 10/07/2025 12:16

If all five nails were the plain pink colour I’d love them.

stayathomer · 10/07/2025 12:18

Love them!!!💖 Would never have the guts for them myself but they are fantastic!!! I work on a checkout and seeing bright nails brightens my day. By the way will be treating myself to the pink sparkly ones for Christmas 👍👏

Digdongdoo · 10/07/2025 12:18

I like them, they're fun and well done. You've got lovely long nail beds too!

TheCurious0range · 10/07/2025 12:26

I like the shape and length. The colour and patterns aren't to my taste but look nicely done

PersephonePomegranate · 10/07/2025 12:30

Calm down, dear!

People are describing the style of the nails, not the whole person or personality and the OP invited comment.

How about tasteless - is that allowed?

toomanydicksonthedancefloor1 · 10/07/2025 12:38

Yes! Just my sort of style and not too long, I absolutely love them.

I’m really jealous. I was doing my own BIAB and gel nails for years but sadly developed an infection and my nails crumbled and my cuticles are permanently swollen now. They have never got better and that was 3 years ago so I can’t have them on now. I am gutted as I get so jealous and hide my hands when I see pretty nails. I occasionally make gel stick on nails but can’t keep them on for long.

Kamek · 10/07/2025 12:39

@BigClassyNails But bullying would be commenting on people's nails or any other characteristic unsolicited. The OP literally asked people what they think of them

NeverTrustTheScales · 10/07/2025 12:41

I like them all the same colour and don't liek any nail art but as long as you like them, go you!

eqpi4t2hbsnktd · 10/07/2025 12:42

Chav-tastic.

SameOldMe · 10/07/2025 12:44

Love them

Britneyfan · 10/07/2025 12:45

I personally love them OP! But someone once said somewhere that this position to show off manicures is the “hand job” position and it’s all I can think about anytime I see these photos now 🤣

SaintGermain · 10/07/2025 12:55

I don’t like the assortment of different colours, I prefer all nails to look the same.

The main pink colour would be better on toes than fingers.

That’s just my personal preference/taste.

MrsDoubtfire123 · 10/07/2025 13:01

I do ! 🎉🎉🎉

SonK · 10/07/2025 13:04

They are nicely done OP, if you like those colours and the style then enjoy x

If you want my personal opinion, it's not really what I would go for as I like things a little on the plainer side
