After chewing my nails for so long I have decided to let them grow out and I just bought me some nail color on Amazon which I will post later on its got metallic in the color they are getting longer I have to file a few of them but anyhow I think they look better than being all chewed up. So, we will see how long they last hopefully I will see how pretty they look with color I won’t want to chew them or bite my nails. ---

Apparently if you file your nails (which you’re doing) , you won’t want to chew them. ---

i always cut my toenails too short. i need to let them grow, but it seems they never get the chance to exist at a normal size ---

I have had long nails off and on for years but mainly more off than on but hopefully I can get to the point to not bite my nails and keep them long for years to come that’s my New Years resolution that I am making and hoping I keep this time. Also to lose more weight and keep it off would also be nice too for a resolution as well. ---

letting my right hand nails grow for guitar playing atm while keeping the left extremely short for fret playing. I have one of those 4 sided emery boards and an expenisve charlotte tilbury file for the right. I never knew about these things before until i started guitar playing. ---
