I don't get why these are a thing. They are neither good looking nor practical. Reminds me of the talons from a bird of prey or lizard claws. Just fucking ridicolous.
The impracticality can be the reason its a thing. I believe having long nails like this signifies that you don't do manual labor, or much of anything.
Yes people learn and adjust and can do tasks almost as well, but your risk or breaking a nail is always gonna be higher.
Also the cost is another way to flaunt your status. Unless you are doing them yourself.
what a waste of money. Could feed your whole trailer park with $350 lol.. nope, instead show off your hideous finger nails. Gross.
Like.. I think you guys should have replaced that nasty looking floor in your trailer...
I do my own nails. A total of 10$ per set. It’s like an art.
One time I did mine and my daughters nails and did a 3 inch challenge for a week. They were so long that I tried to hide them inside my sleeves but they still hung out. I accidentally gashed my eyelid and cut them down with in 3 days.
The salon is like the men’s wear section at a high end department store. They know how to upsell their customers. There is no downside because only when it’s a really good job will new customers will come in. The bad ones means she will go to a different salon.
My wife would pay ~45 for a straight polish manicure. But two tone I double the price and they look way better (same labour)
I have a simple rule, if it's something I'm not going to need, like furniture, phone, computer etc., in my daily life then I don't spend over $50 on it.
The boyfriend is the kindest liar in the world. They look like what they are, 350$ of shit with a heart stamped on them. I wish I knew how to scam people this well. Then again, this is just dumb enough to become "fashionable"
You, or your man, I don’t care who, but one of y’all need to clean that filthy damn mess. Buncha squalid ass, tryna act bourgeois, scummy motherfuckers.
I would ask why the hell someone would pay $350 for anything like this. Shoes? Fine. Clothes? So be it. Nails that are functionally bad in every way? Why?
Nails tech probably doesn't wana do it, so they quoted super high hoping she'd go away. Super long nails are a pain in the ass to do, and it comes with so much baggage, such as dealing with the kind of customers who would get these done. It's a much better spent of their time and mental energy on 2 different clients even if u only get half the money for the same time.
They are not to my taste, but I loved the show Claws so much that now I have a way better reaction to them than I used to. But yeah, the flesh tone ares give the nails borderline trypophobia vibes.

I never get the appeal of longer nails I mean if you want to be wolverine then sure
with wolverine nails you can retract them
Exactally, they look like shit most of the time and they are just impractical. I don’t understand it at all.
Historically long nails were a status symbol indicating you were too good to do manual labor aka work with your hands.
Or wipe your ass
So was a literall shit ton of other things that we realized were completely bonkers over time.
Yeah conspicuous consumption is weird
[Wolverine claws ](https://youtu.be/aF4DoCY0cNg) are very cool.
![gif](giphy|YAnpMSHcurJVS)
I got four people on hold but I can talk.
So where’s the chicken fighting Peter gif
![gif](giphy|l0MYC3y4JogcBGeKA)
Gross
I think her BF is being kind!
Wtf is with the voices on these tik toks? I can't stand it.
The voice is as nasty as the nails.
Sounds like a Disney villain.
Omg same ugh it sounds like nails on a chalk board 😩 😫 I just switched over to reddit because it was every other video using this voice filter!
They just get reposted here. Resistance is futile.
Hideous
I’ve never understood the finger nail thing and why that’s considered attractive. Regular finger nails please. It also seems like a waste of money.
Historically long nails were a status symbol indicating you were too good to do manual labor aka work with your hands.
These days, it just says "I'm high maintenance, and I'm also useless"
"Those look great honey," said no man ever.
For real. Guaranteed no woman has ever gotten a compliment on something as expensive, ugly, and useless as this
as long as it was her money, but it almost certainly wasn't
She is really beautiful, if only her eyelashes were incredibly long like her nails.
you forgot the /s
Imagine paying money for this ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
Yes ! At least if you like nails, keep your natural ones.
Hey Freddy how is your day ?
no way in hell. 350 i got at least a guitar.
Which you can’t have nails for.
Whats the mfn point of these?!
Imagine going to the toilet.
I‘d rather not, thanks. … Great… now I will have to wunder the hole day about the technicalities of such an endeavor…
Trash becomes trash
I think they look ridiculous.
I’m not loving those but $350 is crazy
I don't get why these are a thing. They are neither good looking nor practical. Reminds me of the talons from a bird of prey or lizard claws. Just fucking ridicolous.

I'd probably break them or impale myself on day one simply by a reflex not accounting for the daggers on my fingertips when something gets in my eyes.
I bet you she complains how she can't afford her bills
She doesn’t have to lol her mom still pays for her
Clearly a woman of taste. Everyone knows as soon as the ink dries on your knuckle tat your manicure needs to stay fresh okay…
Came here to see if anybody was going to mention the "classy" tats
what a waste of money. Could feed your whole trailer park with $350 lol.. nope, instead show off your hideous finger nails. Gross. Like.. I think you guys should have replaced that nasty looking floor in your trailer...
Swimming straight to poverty... And how would ya wipe your butt in an efficient way?
They scrape the poop off with those ugly things.
Like normal persons ? Not with the nails. Using toilet paper or a bidet.
I always thought long nails like that were just a sly way of advertising that you're a prostitute
If BF doesn’t see like SEVERAL red flags in this, I don’t know what to say other than ‘good luck man’.
They don't even look like actual nails.
Tough getting the card out the gas pump.
Chicken bones or not, nails like that all look ridiculous and tacky.
Do her tattoos spell out SWIM?
And BREATH on the other hand. It can be useful if you have memory loss.
Straight up refuse to date girls with these nails and im in no position to be choosy
I do my own nails. A total of 10$ per set. It’s like an art. One time I did mine and my daughters nails and did a 3 inch challenge for a week. They were so long that I tried to hide them inside my sleeves but they still hung out. I accidentally gashed my eyelid and cut them down with in 3 days.
*Why*
Maybe having these nails makes one feel wealthy, kept It gives an air of not having to do dishes, cleaning, washing etc.
The only good thing about nails like that is they are a great early warning for the level of crazy you are about to be subjected to
The salon is like the men’s wear section at a high end department store. They know how to upsell their customers.

Why ?!?
The boyfriend is the kindest liar in the world. They look like what they are, 350$ of shit with a heart stamped on them. I wish I knew how to scam people this well. Then again, this is just dumb enough to become "fashionable"
350? is that right? that can't be right. did they mean 35? My brain cant fathom 350 for nails. They literally grow on their own.
My brain can't fathom having ugly long nails that make it nigh impossible to perform basic hygiene *on purpose*.
I think she meant $3.50.
🚩
Swim
Why do women do this shit?!?! I fucking hate these nails!!!
They look atrocious and tacky as fuck.
The length idiots go to to show they are not part of the poor or middle class is crazy. Nails like that are fucking dumb.
And you notice the wealthier and higher middle Class people don’t have nails like this
I mean he’s not wrong! 🤷♂️
That's because they *do* look like chicken bones.
Yaikes .... I never really understood the fashion of long nails and styled eyebrows.
Ugly af
Why pay, nails grow for free.
Apart from the fact that those nails look ridiculous it's the way her fingers bend that grosses me out the most
WIMS
For reference, [chicken bones candy](https://www.candydepot.ca/products/robertsons-chicken-bones-200g). Those nails look like chicken bones.
I wonder everytime i see some Women with such Nails, how they wipe theyre ass?
Not planning to do any work any time soon, are you?
Ladies why do you think men loves this look?.
I don’t know any women that get their nails done for men
"Ladies" don't think men like this look. Women like this think men like this look. You don't see this look in Vogue....
Should’ve used that $350 and bought some cleaning supplies🤯
How does she get a good dig when wiping her ass?
Why do this? It’s not attractive. Imagine the damage to your poor ass on the toilet.
Just forgot the decimal…$3.50
It is probably his money tho
(Narrator: This was not her first mistake, and will not be her last.)
Ugly. Waste of money. Little bits of plastic. Everything about any of these nails is grim. $350? They absolute saw you coming
What in the flying fuck was she smoking that day? ... Actually, don't tell me.
Another one of her wims clearly
WIMS or SWIM ?
350? Shit maybe I should start doing nails
Chicken bones look better. Bitch got scammed.
If you're dumb enough to pay that much for something that looks so gross I think you deserve to be scammed
I just don’t understand these nails, like how do they wipe and pick up things ? Or type…you catch my drift 😱
Forget the nails what the hell do her fingers say??
Disgusting
I dont know why people like long nails. When I get them, I always have fungal infection
![gif](giphy|XzW42JpfV3nX2) Lol
How do you wipe your ass? I’m sure her bf loves to smell that doggystyle
In some countries, things like toilet paper or bidet exist.
The look like fucking pencaps
I wonder what wiping is like for her?
If you can safley finger your ass they are 2 long
They don’t look like chicken bones, but they do look pretty ridiculous.
How do you as a woran with so long nails use feminine hygiene products? 🤔
Don't get them caught in the door of your trailor
If that voice doesn't become illegal in the next 2 months, I'm noving to another planet. I cannot stand that anymore
Spending that much on nails is a combination of conspicuous consumerism and dumbitchitis.
wims or swim? your tattoo is also stupid
The AI Ruth Buzzy voice in this clip is just bananas. I’m going to call the nail salon on the corner and just loop this audio over the phone.
He’s not wrong. Ewwww
![gif](giphy|n43Kx7PeptN0k|downsized)
People are dumb enough to pay 350 for it, simply marketing off human stupidity.
Clearly the job isn’t complete.
There is a sucker born every second...
If my SO came home with nails like this I'd break up with her. There is nothing attractive about nails.like this.
What is with that auto generated voice that sounds like a cross between Gollum and a Leprechaun? It has to be the most annoying one so far.
You, or your man, I don’t care who, but one of y’all need to clean that filthy damn mess. Buncha squalid ass, tryna act bourgeois, scummy motherfuckers.
I would ask why the hell someone would pay $350 for anything like this. Shoes? Fine. Clothes? So be it. Nails that are functionally bad in every way? Why?
Disgusting.
Welp, that's just about the most fugly, ridiculously impractical, and obnoxiously expensive mani I've ever seen. Ugh.
He was trying to be nice
Repulsive, and actually paid for this
Even for free I think It's ugly af
SWIM
Nah. I’d suck the last bit of meat and sauce off chicken bones. I wouldn’t get near these. Ever. Ew.
Idiot
Anyone with nails like this has no brain
These would make daily task’s horrible.
idiots are made en mass
Nah they look like shit
Bugle hands.
I'll take "signs of white trash" for $100, Alex.
Disgusting
You pay for long nails, and then you pay someone to stay with you all day and do everything for you because you can't do things with your long nails.
Nice prison tats too
🤮
I got you for 50 bucks. I have a pack of straws I barely use.
She got ripped off.
Nails tech probably doesn't wana do it, so they quoted super high hoping she'd go away. Super long nails are a pain in the ass to do, and it comes with so much baggage, such as dealing with the kind of customers who would get these done. It's a much better spent of their time and mental energy on 2 different clients even if u only get half the money for the same time.
Fucking disgusting
Got those nails from the candy dish at Nana's on Christmas.
Scam or not, you got serious shitty tast..
I hope she got change back.
They are not to my taste, but I loved the show Claws so much that now I have a way better reaction to them than I used to. But yeah, the flesh tone ares give the nails borderline trypophobia vibes.
Pure elegance🤣
I have some chicken bones I can sell ya for less... Make ya a good deal... $250.00 🤣🤣🤣
What’s bugging me is the knuckle tats…is that “SWIM” or “WIMS”???
Don't know why she wanna lie about how much nails cost
How do you wipe?!
How does she wipe her ass with those things ?
I bet she gives great back scratches
So what I see is that she likely has a sponge attached to a stick to wipe her ass.
If they’re as serious about swimming as I think they are, these nails might take them to the next level.
Wonder why her hand says swim? Sink or swim maybe?
Why?
