    Default Broke a Nail

    I broke one of my acrylics in half last night at work. Apparantly I hit my customer a little too hard. Haha.

    I thought it was funny, plus SW told me to post.

    Funny? Am I the only one who thinks it hurts like a bitch when those fake nails break?

    Owie...

    It does hurt like a bitch just soak it off let it heal and then start over if your real nail is damaged.

    Uhm. I was running out the door to get my daughter from school - somehow while I was pulling the door closed I got my hand stuck in there. I slammed so hard it broke off 2 acrylics and my natural nail came off too - it was a nasty bloody mess.

    I wrapped my hand in paper towels, pick my daughter up and head to the ER. We walk up and my daughter says to the receptionist "My mommy broke her nail" The lady looked at me like I was crazy - until I showed her my hand. Then shes all "ugh, gross, wrap it back up".

    Needless to say I had to have my fingers numbed and have the rest of the acrylic and natural nail ripped off.

    Now thats a broken nail!

    Acrylics hurt so bad when they break! I'm never wearing fake nails if I don't work for awhile.

    My nails have gotten long because I haven't had them done in a few weeks. It takes a lot of abuse to break them, but damnit, I bend them backwards on everything! They don't physically bend--at least not to my knowledge--but they catch on things, and it pulls my real nail from my finger. Hurts like a bitch, my fingertips feel bruised, even though there's no visible damage.

    Something similar to Audrey's story happened to me in gym class. I had just got acrylics for grad (so naturally they were ridiculously long and unpractical) and I was sitting on the bench in gym and the girl next to me slide down the bench, hooked one of my nails and nearly ripped the whole thing right off!

    I went to my gym teacher, eyes welling up and he asked what was wrong. I just said "I broke a nail", got that crazy look, and showed him my bleeding finger. I didn't need to go to the doctor or anything but omg the pain was so bad!

    Heh I slammed my finger in a car door awhile ago and broke off my gel nail and half my natural nail. I managed to get the rest of the gel off and have just had natural nails since...

    Well my natural nail grew out and there was a huge white bump in my nail and it was pulling away from my nail bed. Then it snagged on my blanket and ripped off. Though it was weird I still have the end of my nail and half the bottom of it but there is a square almost of nail missing at the bottom of my nail. Hurts like a bitch.

    The funny thing is when I slammed the door on my finger all I could think is 'ouch' then I walked into the bar, ran it under cold water and woke up 5min later on the bathroom floor. It actually made me black out.

    Oww!

    I did break one several weeks ago when it got stuck in a freak kitchen cabinet accident. That one ripped my real nail as well so it hurt really, really bad. It's taking forever for the real nail to reattach to the skin too.

    This one though broke a lot further up. I thought it was funny because I didn't even realize it had happened. We went back to the our table when the CR was up and then I noticed it. He laughed and said "I'm pretty sure I know which slap that was." So I guess he felt it. But hey, I pulled another fifty bucks off of him so I could go have it fixed, so it's fine by me.

    i was in the atlanta airport at the end of dec. carrying a 2 month old baby, a diaper bag and my purse, whiel i was trying to unfold the stroller after we got off the plane, somehow my pinky nail hit something and the acryllic didnt break. o no! not at all, the nail didnt even come off my natural nail.

    instead, my natural nail lifted off my finger and started squirting blood EVERYWHERE! but i couldnt do shit about it because my hands were full. and no one would give me some tape or a band aid. the little concession stand places didnt have any. i finally found one at a new stand across the airport.

    since then its been taped down with medical tape. its starting to grow out again, but if its not taped down, it lifts up really awkwardly. it sucks though because i NEED to go get them redone, but i'm not sure if they can redo that nail because its not attatched to my finger very well.
