People have different preferences over nail shape and this is reflected by the variety shown in advertisements. Some people like an oval shape and others a square. It is worth noting that a complete square shape can cause your nails to split, catch on clothing and break more easily. You may want to consider a combination of both, a square nail that is filed into a curve around the edges.

Nail varnish remover dries out your nails and can cause splitting; this is due to alcohol being a main ingredient. In my opinion, unless your varnish is extremely chipped when you are using the same colour just paint over the already existing coat.

Try to make sure that your nails are kept to a similar length. If one breaks then file down the others to match the size. In my opinion nails of significantly different lengths can look very untidy; they do not have to be perfect though.

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I wonder if any of the "model" nail ladies use their hands as much as I do to get meals on the table, and get their housework done.....somehow I can't see that. For me, it is a waste of money to get manicures, as I practically live in my kitchen and even if I wear rubber gloves, my nails polish chips too soon. I love pretty nails, but I do them myself, for special occasions, to keep down the cost and still have pretty nails when needed. From time to time I do get manicures, but then I do not do much around the house until after the occasion is passed.

When I file my nails, they get all rough and all. I never file because filing doesn't work for my pretty (but natural) nails. :) Tip: If you're not a fan of long nails, then trim them often, letting the maximum length being barely past your finger tip.
