I prefer the look of short nails, especially if they're painted. I also can't stand getting gunk underneath them, and typing with them long feels uncomfortable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-your-nails-short#post-520903 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 09:45:20 +0000 yellowbird 520903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I pretty much have to in my field of work.

I also have really long nail beds so when my nails are long they're reallllly long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-your-nails-short#post-520899 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 09:42:39 +0000 Grace 520899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Short.

I swear every time I ask them to cut them super short they leave like four millimeters. Every time they try to file my toenails and they're like "so short!"</p> <p>ETA: obviously I like my nails to be as short as possible! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-your-nails-short#post-520864 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 09:33:55 +0000 MsLipGloss 520864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like to keep my nails fingertip length with a nude polish . . . that hasn't happened since before LO was born! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-your-nails-short#post-520583 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 04:32:27 +0000 sylvie_b 520583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm definitely a short nails gal....they chip or break too easily! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-keep-your-nails-short#post-520551 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 01:44:38 +0000 SAHM0811 520551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I wear dark nail polish (fall/winter), they look better pretty short.
