Do you guys even notice a girl's nails?

Question

I don't paint my nails. I only cut them regularly and cut off the excess skin, so my nails never stand out in any way. They chip easily if I paint them because I have to do work around the house. Also I never notice anyone's nails 99% of the time so I can't justify spending money to get them done at a salon. Plus, anything on top of my nails feels uncomfortable.

So, I never really got the hype. I know lots of females that spend a lot of money on it regularly.

When I look at a girl I tried to look deep into her eyes I want to know who she is on the inside before anything else but when I do is look to the outside I tried to notice everything about her in detail I mean in detail because I want to see all the beauty within her and on the outside too where most people are most guys good look at a girl say she's not good-looking I can look at a girl say she's very beautiful because I look deeper than most guys

I think slightly longish nails on a girl make her hands look sexy! I dislike that horrible, ghastly dark purple or black nail polish - it makes me think of monster movies. But I really like silver or pink nails. Bright red nails remind me too much of blood!
One of the sexiest things a girl can do while holding hands with her guy is lightly brush his palm with the edge of her thumbnail. That gives me chills (and other results!)

They notice, lol.
I don't do my nails either and I keep them short.
I got my nails done one time last year and I hated it. Completely fucked up my healthy nails and I had to wait like 2 months for them to heal.
Just because they notice, doesn't mean it's a big deal though, lol.
I don't get my nails done, but I'm complimented on my hands and fingers all the time.

I neither have those long pointy fake nails nor do i polish mine. I have short nails and I have never used nail polish in my life, id never use them in the future as well. Nail polish has too many chemicals and you can accidentally scratch someone and draw blood if you have long nails
by the way im 16 and not 14, the age is wrong and im not able to change it back

In my experience, whenever I paint my nails a dark color guys will tell me they like my nails. I always get commented from guys when I do my nails. I would want a guy to have a good groomed nails in general too. Think its gross when people don't take care of their nails.

Oh yeah. It's very important to me. Nice feminine nails are a huge turn on, and nails like yours are deal breaker. I've rejected girls because their nails were too short. And I won't even touch a girl's hand if she has short nails.

Oh yeah, that's the shit right there. THEEEEEESE, are real women. .

I don't really notice. My girlfriend has occasionally complained that the pandemic has prevented her from getting a manicure. I think it's not a big deal because her nails look good (to me) normally. I almost never pay any attention to a person's hands and nails, unless they made effort to make them noticeable e. g. very long nails, bright nail polish.

We don't until a woman scratches the shit out of us, or points it out first.

I worked at this one place where a coworker had hers professionally done, they were long, pointy, and sharp. She went to hand me something, and scratched the shit out of me. Drew blood!

I do notice when a girl has done something with her appearance and I would compliment them for it but it's not something I would obsess over. As long as someone is at least tidy most of the time (Sometimes we have bad days or even just don't get enough time to prepare ourselves before going out or to work) then I wouldn't care less.

I definitely notice nails and usually it's apart of my attraction to them weirdly enough.. I like longer nails that make the hands look pretty. And I prefer nails not painted most of the time.. I used to hate nail polish, but certain colors on nails I consider pretty look great. Fake long nails are not great either but they do look better than stubby nails with polish on them..

Kas19 · Answer

Probably not unless they look hideous or too crazy. My boyfriend loves my finger nails. I usually don't cut them and they grow pretty long, I've actually been asked if they were done at a nail salon 💀. Some guys do, some don't. But I'm gonna say most don't.

I voted D - Other.

I do notice a woman’s nails, and view a woman having her “nails done” much in the same way as her wearing jewelry or a nice skirt & heels: it’s a very nice enhancement of her femininity.

And I am partial to “French tip nails”; for me, “painted” nails are not as attractive as those that are French tipped.

Mangospacho · Answer

I’ll sometimes notice when someone’s nails are painted but I can’t tell the difference between someone who painted their own nails at home and one that was professionally manicured. I’m sorry to say that nail salons have been running this scam for years now. 😂

I love when women get manis and pedis especially my girlfriend. she has been getting them done many many years before we got together.

loveslongnails · Answer

My screen name is meant to say "I love long nails - on a woman". Not stupid long, fake nails, but some length. Suffice it to say, I notice pretty much EVERYTHING about a woman's appearance when I meet her. If it's visible, I notice it, from the tips of her fingers to the tips of her toes to the top of her head and everything in between !!

I have never given one flying fuck over a girls nails nor do I notice them unless they are obnoxiously long like how some black girls like them so if anything they annoy me. Women are more nuanced on such matters like a billion different shades of purple where a man only sees one shade.

I really don’t notice a girls nails unless they are claws like the Wicked Witch Of The West.

Leavesbound · Answer

I notice them but not minute details. I can tell you the color and more or less the style but not necessarily the name of the color other than red, pink, violet etc. I won't notice minute patterns or pictures etc.

For me it´s a mix of B and C. I do notice if your nails are polished or not but I´m not always taking a look on them. For me it´s not that important if you use polish or not.

scholastic_vibez · Answer

I try to notice them, and compliment girls for it. I think it’s kind of cute when my girlfriend paints her own natural nails though because it evokes something innocent, and child-like.

TurboKid · Answer

I like girls with super short nails. I don't mind if they're dirty. That might even be a bonus if she is an outdoorsy type.

JustinTimberlegs · Answer

I notice but I'm not too affected by it. Looks a little silly when it's too long though, but idc if someone doesn't have their nails done

JackSmy · Answer

Yeah, when they DON'T PAINT THEM!! Also, when they aren't Anxious Anny, and CHEWING her nails, and becoming the Venus de Milo!! LOL!!

Kaneki05 · Answer

Nah never really do. Only when it's super fake and long and it's not a notice it cause it looks good, more it looks awful.
