How Horrible do Freshly-Cut Fingernails Feel?

Post Reply New Topic

The complete opposite for me. My nails feel icky when they get too long (showing any white and the more white they show, the ickier they feel). It always feels really good when I have finally gotten them cut and I actually press my fingers against my palm enjoying the feel of it.

I have to keep my nails very short so they don't break & I have skin eczema that causes my skin to itch & the itching causes me to scratch. I usually only notice that bad feeling for like a day after I cut my nails but I sometimes notice it for longer if I cut my nails too short.

I used to only notice it if they were too short. Now that I usually have long nails, it feels wrong whenever I cut them and it's hard to get used to them being short again.

Another thing I don't like is the way my nail polish feels after about four or five days. It starts to get dry and horrible, and it usually chips a few days after that feeling starts. I paint them again before they chip.

Me too. I can't stand the feeling of long nails, and it gets dirty and gross and the skin around the nailbeds gets hard and raised up. Forget typing with any kind of nail. Ick.
