What is it with people who sweep out their vans and leave discarded nails and screws all over the pavement and road? That's 4 punctures in one week! Will I return his nails to him and demand compensation?Why does that idiot down the road clear out his van and leave nails all over the road?
because he's a ******* ********.Why does that idiot down the road clear out his van and leave nails all over the road?
That was his major in college. Actually, it was a double major in nail scattering and van clearing, with a minor in tire puncturing.
He's an idiot
Can you say white trash. They have no courtesy for anyone but themselves. Why bother, they are just going to deny it.
I dissagree with Deja as they are IDIOT's is why you just answsered your own Q? ;)
because he is an IDIOT !
because he can't wait for someone to kick his a**
best way to handle this is video tape him sweeping out van --- then call police + show them the video + the road hazards (nails)
I'm with Deja - can't believe the recurrent lack of courtesy that I witness each %26amp; every day. Very amazing and frustrating.

Nails holding the shingles down turned white.?
I know that the nails turning white during winter is normal, because it's a reaction to the snow and minerals and everything else. My problem is that you can se the nail being white from the inside of the house, does this mean snow or water is leaking?Nails holding the shingles down turned white.?
The Zinc often does turn white. No harm.Nails holding the shingles down turned white.?
condensation is going to occur if you have three tab or ar shingles.Is your attic well ventilated?Galv. roofing are going to oxidize no matter what the conditions.Take one or two galv. nails and subject them into the same place(attic) and see if they react in the same way.Be sure there isn't a chemical stored in the attic that is doing it and do you have a pool or chemical company near by? If nothing else check to see if the attic is ventilated well.

My nails are long, but when thay get too long thay start to curl down , how do i stop that from happending?
Natural nail shape is influenced by genetics and by the shape of your own natural nail bed. I agree, the only way you could stop it is through some kind of nail enhancement, but I think if you can grow your own nails, even if they curve down, they will look lovely if taken care of and groomed.My nails are long, but when thay get too long thay start to curl down , how do i stop that from happending?
HI
If you dont like it right now, start to look at the web for some sites where you see lots of kinds and styles of nails. And you will find out that this curling even can look gorgeous.

LONG Nails are hot... ESPECIALLY when they start to curve...Don't cut them. You should let them do what they want..By all means take care of them.
Don't stop...be NatuRaL, be you.
Hi Tina...There are many types of nails: straight, curved down, extreme curve or talons, upward curve or ski slopes, nails that turn to either left or right and nails that spiral. A nice set of long natural or enhanced nails are admired by a select group of people worldwide who find nails to be the epitome of femininity and beauty. Check out www.sexylongnails.com or www.nailpassion.com or www.nailbytes1.com. Also spinnies attic and the link to that is in Tim's answer to your question.
Granted that long nails are not for everyone and one has to consider job guidelines etc., but to have someone tell you to cut your nails simply because in their opinion they are too long is wrong. That is an individual's choice. Yes, to have long nails means a certain amount of time and dedication needs to be set aside for maintenance and one needs to be a little more careful when doing things with our hands but the end result is the 10 shiny jewels at the end of your fingertips. Remember, nails are jewels, not tools, and long nails are neither gross or icky. Sometimes people who cannot or choose not to grow their nails will say that out of envy. A well maintained set of nails can be absolutely beautiful and an artistic canvas to a nailtech with as much passion for beautiful nails as the person growing them.
I am assuming you like to grow your nails in which case, as a nailtech, i will recommend that you find a reputable salon in your area and a nailtech who will take the time to do the job properly, without the need to use an electric file on the natural nail. An electric file should only be used on the acrylic, not to remove layers off the nailbed. Nails need to be pampered. A good nailtech will find the best enhancement if one is needed. I personally recommend gel as an overlay to protect the nail and a daily regimen off a good cuticle oil (I love Solar Oil by Creative Nail Design) Sometimes nails will curl once they get past the fingertip as skin oils do not reach them and if they are in water too much without protection. Using the nail oil before doing anything with water and before going to bed helps keep the nails hydrated. Always wear gloves for dishes or cleaning.
If you have any other questions about this, feel free to email me at tigressasnails@yahoo.com. I will be happy to answer them for you.
Take care.

CUT THEM EVERY WEEK!!
all nails are like that you shouldnt grow them long though when they start curling cut them
Let them grow and curve. It's beautiful and natural. Long natural nails are an amazing look. I say ignore the negative responses here.
Umm cut them? lol
nails naturaly curve after they get to a certain lenght.
you stop it from happening by cutting them down and keeping them at a reasonable lenght
.. Umm. Eew. Sorry, lol.
I just have a weird thing for curled nails.
Maybe it's time you should cut them?
I don't know the answer to your question (see what the nail techs have posted), but whatever you do, DON'T CUT THEM!!! Don't listen to the negative comments here - be your own person - grow your nails as long as you want. Long, long, well-maintained nails are exceptionally beautiful.
Thats a sign telling you that they are TOO long and need to be cut.
Umm well when your nails start to curl down there say ';Ahhhh clip me plz!!!!'; serously i mean that's kinda gross.
go to the nail place and ask them..................
Tina,
I am going to disagree with many of the answers here.
Just because they are curling doesn't mean they are too long. There are plenty of people, males and females that would disagree. check out www.nailpassion.com, www.nailbytes1.com or either of my groups http://groups.yahoo.com/group/spinniesattic/ or http://groups.yahoo.com/group/spinniesguesthouse for places filled with people who have an understanding and passion for long nails.
But to the question, often acrylics or wraps will help stop the curl. And I knew a lady who even would soak her nails and score then along each side and straighten them and then put fiberglass wraps on.
Without something added they will curl, but do know that shows they are natural. It shows they each have their own personality and don't think that its a bad thing. A good friend of mine had felt the same way but ultimately she has grown to enjoy them knowing they are natural and all her own.
Feel free to write or visit the sites I suggested and you will see that there are far more people then you know who feel that your nails are just fine.
Tina, my simple opinion is that nails are a distinctive part of us and even more important in females. Looking the hands and the nails of a person you can tell much of this person, hard hand workers, nail biters, typist, guitar player, they all have very different hands and nails. I also think that nails have a sort of their own personality, as hair, eyes, noses have. Do you cut your hair because their curl when they are too long?
All the people go around with different noses, eyes, hair鈥?and with different fingernails.
My opinion is that you should feel free to express yourself with the fingernails long as much you like and you should also allow your nails to express themselves with their own particular shape.pores blackheads

I am restoring my deck should i use nails or screws to hold the boards down?
If you use deck screws it will make it a lot easier to replace a board when you need to and they hold better.I am restoring my deck should i use nails or screws to hold the boards down?
Decking screws with a power screwdriver, some power drills have a speed setting for driving in screws, if you don't have one, get one ! they're not expensive and you'll be glad you did.I am restoring my deck should i use nails or screws to hold the boards down?
Deck screws
screws won't pop or squeak.
screws.if you use nails youll have to pound them in again come spring
Deck screws (galvanized or some corrosion resistant coating)
I would use screw, they have deck screw to use. They cost more but the work better then ornerier wood screws.

If i file down my acrylic nails, or file them down?
to try to take them off,
not professionally,
will it really ruin my nails forever?If i file down my acrylic nails, or file them down?
not necessarily, your nails will continue to grow so the damaged part will at some point grow outIf i file down my acrylic nails, or file them down?
it does damage your nail and it feels like forever befor they come back to their normal strength. it's best to soak them really long in nail polish remover with acetone but that's what the pro's do. and they've also got all the extra equipment to clean up your nail bed properly. if they're bugging you, soak long and let them come off gently, DON';T PULL THEM OFF. you could rip a chunk of nail off in the middle of your nail bed and girl, it's serious trouble if that happens. acrylic nails sometimes can be very bonded to your nail so don't take chances. infection in the nail is awful and takes forever to heal and looks bad. hope that answers it.
Just go get some acetone...its really cheap and then you can soak the nails off. Your nails wont be ruined forever they will just be a bit fragile for awile depending on how much damage is done when removing the nails as they can cause your own nails to peel layers off abit. Your nails will grow out the damaged part and be good again which takes about 3 months or so.
by putting them on, it's already ruined your nails.
I have acrylic nails for a few months and they totally messed up my nails. They infected them where they turn yellow and I had no choice to take them off and get a manicure weekly or keep putting on acrylics. I had them taken off about 9 months ago and the infected part of my nail is STILL not all the way grown out. I'll never get fake ones again.
Edited--
It wont ruin your nails forever, only until the ruined part of the nail grows out.
Here's a site i found that gives advice on the removal process
no. it will hurt really bad, but your nails grow out and get rid of the imperfections. so it may hurt when you do it, but it wont ruin them forever
Dont do that! soak them in nail polish remover for about 30 minutes. the acetone in the remover takes off the acrylic.

Is it wise to get my kittens nails cut or just filed down?
This really bothers me when she wants to be affectionate and I'm pushing her away because I don't want to get scratched? Help!!Is it wise to get my kittens nails cut or just filed down?
if she's an indoor only cat, then you should get her nails clipped every couple of months (depending on how fast hers grow). if she's an indoor/outdoor cat then you can probably wait a little longer because being outside naturally helps control the length and sharpness of her nails.
i would suggest clipping rather than filing because cats don't like their nails being messed with and clipping is quicker and easier to do. though both have risks (clipping too far can cause her nail to bleed, but it will be ok) (with filing you could jam her nail which would be painful for longer).Is it wise to get my kittens nails cut or just filed down?
I guess this is your first cat. there are nail clippers you can buy at a pet store to clip her claws. you can't file them, let the a vet show you how to do it or someone with experience in clipping. There is a web site you could visit. http://www.felinvideos.vetcornell.edv/he鈥?/a> ... they have instructions on caring for your kitty...Sorry I believe that the web-site is not correct, maybe other viewer can help you .....
Yes, or else your kittens will tear your furniture to shreds
Just filed down, getting thier nails declawed is painful for the cat. Also if they ever get out they could climb to get away from thier enemies
Hi again!
It's a better idea to get a scratching post and maybe a spray, like bitter apple, that will keep your kitten off something you really want to protect. As far as getting scratched yourself, it will happen, but its ok. Kittens are energetic and playful. As they get older, you'll get a lot less scratches, just like they'll wake you up at night less. Try to hold her and play with her anyway. It'll get easier. If she's your only kitten, you might think about getting a second. If she had a playmate, she would go to you less(although she'd still need you), and still be happy
If you cut a claw, it will crush the claw and you risk her getting a very dangerous foot infection. I've seen this more than once and it's not pretty. It's very painful for the cat or kitten, expensive for you and, especially for a kitten, dangerous to its overall health. I have a cat now that came to me with a foot infection. After a long treatment and a lot of pain and sickness, he is now missing a toe.
So, I think it is really not worth it, but if you must, go to a good vet. Most will try to explain to you that it isn't necessary-- if she has something good to scratch on, she will take her claws down the right amount on her own. However, if you insist, a vet can show you the best way and should tell you that a sharp implement is less likely to crush a claw than a dull one (nothing from the grocery store or pet store is probably good enough),
Btw, a kittens back claws should always be left alone. She won't use them to scratch, so you don't need to worry about it.
I'm sure there are people who will file your kittens claws for you, I don't know. I can't imagine any of my cats allowing it, at any age.
Really though, I recommend a scratching post, maybe the bitter apple spray and a sense of humor. Cats and kittens have claws, they scratch. You will get some scratches and so will your home - it's kinda like breathing or licking their fur, there's no way to stop a cat from being a cat.
Either one would be fine, trim or file. It's good to get them started now so they are use to it......
