I got some, as I'm going on hols in 2 weeks and I had a toe infection a few weeks ago called 'paronychia', which sort of corrodes the toenail at the cuticle and stops that specific cycle of growth! So it looks awful, I got some today and put them on, they have been fine so far but I have been wearing flip flops, does anyone know how long they last or if they are comfortable with socks and shoes.

Saz your eyes will be soooooo opened once you get down here Big Grin

They looked lovely Karma ....They'd been French Manicured were a nice length and looked very realistic tbh more so than fake fingernails.

Irish Princess, if you have an infection on the nailbed itself, I wouldn't recommend putting nail glue anywhere near it. Surely it couldn't do your poor toes any good.


The infection cleared up long ago, but I have a small portion of new nail about 6mm and the remainder of the old nail so there is a split in the middle and looks terrible!

Clearly you have, did you not read anything I have posted in this thread about why I am wearing them?! Perhaps you should read through the thread instead of just the first post.


Hang on read your own thread! Why pick on this particular post, when there were plenty on the first page that pretty much said the same thing Confused

As the rest of them said what are the point in fake toenails, this one said why can you not sort out your own toe-nails.

My Sis had them done a few weeks ago cos she had her toe nails removed due to an infection and they have never grew back! They lasted weeks and she's had them done since, I think it's worth it in the summer months when you have your feet on show.


Yeh thats why I got them! It takes the guts of 6 months for a big toenail to grow back fully! I read somewhere it grow's 1/16th of an inch a month!

Which is a valid point! Surely if you have infected toe nails, putting fake ones over the top is going to make them either worse, or prolong the infection.
