self confidence to wear her nails like that. I'd never wear them. However, I admit, I find it very interesting and intrigueing whenever I see women who wear their nails longer than 2 1/2 inches. They seem to be self made Divas and they hold their heads high, never worried about what anyone thinks of them. I must admit, I like that type of nerve, resolve, & huutspa! (sp?) Now, I personally know a friend that has worn her nails 4inches(talking free edge) for the last 20 years. She is a jazz singer by night and a substitute teacher by day in NYC. Every week, she has professional nailcare with designs. Her hair is down her back, She's a perfect size 7 and Her confidence is admirable. Her fiance' is in love with her & so seem all the men in the audience when she sings those melancholy love songs in silky long dresses with sequins that match her nails. Her hands are always wrapped around the microphone and those nails are center-stage! If I were a writer, I'd have to write a book about her & the other women who dare to sport those unbelieveably long nails!
I can't wear them. I can't even put my post earings on with 1 inch of free edge!LOL!!
