I don’t like long toenails.
One of the nail salons I’ve been to where I live cuts toenails a little too long. The first time I had a pedicure there I didn’t pay attention well when she was working on my toes, and then once she already started painting I didn’t make her go back and cut all my toenails, but they were too long. They looked like week 4 just before getting ready to have another pedicure.
The next time I was there (I get a pedicure maybe 4 times a year at most, I usually do my own nails) the woman next to me when I first sat down, was instructing the woman doing her nails to cut her toenails shorter. It’s a thing at that salon.
I think it’s to make more money. You have to get your nails done more often if they are long. You can’t where closed toed shoes with long nails. I live in the land of sunshine, but if you play golf or zumba you need to wear sneakers.
I don’t like very long fingernails either. More than half a centimeter above the nail bed is too much, although I do like when they are 1–3 millimeters. If they are cut to the nail bed it looks very young or sporty to me. I was at a doctor’s office a month ago to pay a bill, and the receptionist had nails an inch long and I thought it was completely unprofessional. She didn’t do anything medical, but still, gross. Nails would be part of my dress code in my office if I were a doctor.
