Many women love the idea that they can control just how their nails look. There is no more having to drink eight glasses of milk a day, or constantly filing away at the nails, hoping they will grow and look healthy. With artificial nails there is no more need for that! You just go to the salon, have them put on and leave...it's really that easy!

There are a few different types of artificial nails to choose from. Some people prefer one over the other because of the kind of activities they are involved in. For example someone who plays sports, might opt for a stronger artificial nail. The first type is called a sculptured nail. It uses acrylic, gel or fibre glass that is applied to nails. The substance is lengthened and sculpted over metal or foil. It can then be placed over the entire nail's surface.
