Worse than that. I mean, let people do what they want to themselves, and function has always been sacrificed for fashion, but this kind of thing is a step on the road to foot binding.
Virtually no one, perhaps. One of the gym teachers in my high school used to wear 2"ers while teaching. Many laughs when she messed up and sent them flying during basketball or volleyball.
Same here. I was thinking expecting the nails you fasten things with. Fingernail art doesn't interest me much, but now it's got me thinking about what kind of cool art you could make with hammer and nails.
Not every hour of your life needs to be utilitarian. They're using their nails as another form of creative expression. The article is light but lots of interesting nails here that I haven't seen or thought about.
That's right. So make sure you first tie your shoes and get your medicines before having that nail art up. And don't forget to bring your chauffeur with you to open and drive your car back home.
And make sure you don't eat any sweets because they are bad for you. Also, watching TV and commenting on Hacker News is not productive and therefore a waste of your time.
I bought a few items at a drugstore yesterday, and noticed the cashier had very elaborate nails.
She used the second knuckles on her inverted hands (i.e. palm facing up) to operate the touchscreen PoS system, and was very efficient. Tool usage can sometimes be adapted.
Do you think a lot of women put on these fancy nails, stay at home, and then take them off, all while not posting any pics to IG?
I don't think women are doing it to attract men, but it certainly seems like there is a social display function here. Maybe the "doing it for themselves" is true, but it's more like "I feel good when other people see me as stylish and cool" kind of doing it for yourself.
