NAILS: curvy or square @ the top???

Question

do you prefare rounded nails or square at the top?? (on girls)

Answer 1

Definately rounded. Square is annoying and breaks off too much. It's also harder to shape.

For French manicures, square can look good if it's pretty short and done right. Most of the time, though, I prefer rounded. ♥

Answer 2

I think young girls mostly go for the square with design and older women are going with the curve and some design.

I just got my nails done over the weekend and I always had them filed curved but this time I went with square and a few designs. I personally feel that women's hands look a lot more feminine with the curve. But the square looks so today kind of. It also should depend on what you're wearing. Say if you're going out on a Saturday night date and you're dressing up.....definitely go curve. If you're dressing casual, then square would look more appropriate.

But you know the old cliche: "To each its own."

Answer 3

Squared nails won't break as easily as rounded tips. The squared tips (on natural nails) are much less likely to break because the wider tips make the nail stronger. There is more area at the tip to spread out or absorb any 'trauma' inflicted.

Answer 4

i definately prefer rounded nail tips. what is up with all these people have square tips?! eww... this is just my opinion by the way. i think rounded is better because there is some shape to it and because it gives the whole nail an overall oval shape whereas square tips would just look rather kift LOL c'mon rounded cuticle then square tips. it is not even a shape haha. also squared cuticles and squared tips look too... square dont like it at all. my nails are naturally oval shaped so not too hard for me to maintain.

so yeah i prefer rounded. x

Answer 5

depends, are the going to be aqrilic?(spelling is way wrong) if so french tips should be more square, where as plain colors look better rounded. Natural nails look better rounded also I think.

Answer 6

definately rounded! Square looks affected to me.

Answer 7

I prefer square becausethe truth is, it makes the nail look real if they are fake and it makes them look longer if they are real or fake. so if you want short nails then go with the round and if you want nails that look long go with the square.

I personally prefer square!!!1

Answer 8

My are naturaly long and rounded at top. But when I go get them done I go with square.

Answer 9

Square looks more fancy to me and curvy I see on old people.

Answer 10

to me, oval looks outdated and tacky and if your under the age of 50 its going to look weird..Long square nails look trashy and cheap..I prefer short squared nails, with french tips, its natural and classy looking.
