Apparently short nails are a fashion statement now as opposed to a thing that just happens because you work with your hands too much and your thyroid is underactive - uh, I mean they're totally short because I AM A CONFIDENT WOMAN. But I've always envied women with naturally long nails, and enjoy looking at other people's professionally manicured nails.

Short nails definitely, I work with my hands, do art and DIY a lot... there's nothing worse than the feeling of a slightly too long nail catching and bending back 🤢

I like painting them from time to time, but painted nails do look better on longer nails (also the nail varnish lasts about 5 seconds before chipping or flaking off)
