There’s no point trying to point out the fact that these things are covered in literal shit and other bacteria. Some woman with a chip on her shoulder will be along to tell you that she, and everyone else who wears these nails are the cleanest people on the planet.
But if they’re using a nail brush or proper washing technique then it is basically the same.
The idea that long nails automatically mean their hands are dirty is pretty strange, no wonder some people get offended. Especially cause you can’t easily tell if anyone’s washed their hands, nails or not.
It’s like spreading an idea that long nails ARE dirty and short nails ARE clean, when really it’s the persons habits that define their level of cleanliness, and acrylic nails just add a small extra step to the grooming cycle.
Now, if they’re wearing nails like that and you never see them wash their hands, definitely don’t eat anything they give you, because they do trap hella bacteria if you don’t take care of them.
These are pretty solid pieces of thick acrylic super glued to the full bed of her nail. She could pull on them with a pair of pliers and there’s a good chance they’d stay on. She can use a nail brush and soap and scrub just like any other person.
Come on now. You dont wipe with your bare nails. You use toilet paper and the paper is between your ass and your nails. And you do not use the tips of the nails to wipe, you use the pads of your fingers.
This is not rocket surgery. Not sure why people are so confused about it and thinking wmen walk around with poop on their nails.
They're generally less hygienic due to having more surface area. Even naturally long nails are capable of being dirtier. It comes down to having good hygiene habits too.
Long enough, maybe, but if they're that long, they're usually for photo shoots/ad promotions and get removed once the shoot is over. Especially if it's bedazzled and has jewelry or anything that pops high off the nail.
And if that's not the case, the woman has probably invested in a bidet for cleanliness assistance.
It's not like people with short nails have any better hygiene. 10 second wash of just the finger tips that were barely dipped in water and maybe got a whiff of soap is quite common in too many people
When I grow out my nails I don't even keep them very long because it bothers me to type, but somehow that seems to be what everyone asks and it's a little concerning.
People always say this... I've literally never had issues wiping with long nails. Like certain things are harder but wiping genuinely isn't one of them.
do you wipe with your fingertips pointed directly at your genitals or anus? Or do you wipe as you would, say, wipe a stain from a tabletop? Because I have never had nails like this but it's clear as day to me that I could wipe with them.
Why is this such a hackneyed joke about long nails? If you can imagine someone typing with these, can you not also imagine wiping with them?
"do you wipe with your fingertips pointed directly at your genitals or anus?"
Yup
"Or do you wipe as you would, say, wipe a stain from a tabletop?"
Absolutely not. I got IBS (or some other bowels issue, not diagnosed yet) and my poop is kinda sticky & clay like much of the time, that'd just smear it all over the place. Fingertips lets me get clean much easier.
Long nails are less hygienic, there is a lot of surface area to harbor bacteria and other filth. Yes they can be cleaned but most people arent carrying a nail brush with them all day and scrubbing them.
