Pegasus Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Hi all! I have a big problem - I'm a guitar player (no, that is not the problem ) and the thing is that my fingernails are breaking every time they are longer than 3 milimeters over the finger. I need them a bit longer for playing. What can I do to protect nails from breaking? Okie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsallgrand Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Picks! Ok, ok. You can get nail hardener. It really does work. Cheap, find it in any drug store or even grocery store with the rest of the nail polish and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highonyou Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I have seen these little metal ring thingies in music shops, they are a bit like fake nails u can wear for picking with ur fingers instead of using your nails. They just slip on around the end of ur fingers and look like u have little claws...pretty kool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheap, find it in any drug store or even grocery store with the rest of the nail polish and such. I can't use picks because I'm playing classics so I need to use all 5 fingers on the right hand. I will look for nail hardener. Thx. I have seen these little metal ring thingies in music shops, they are a bit like fake nails u can wear for picking with ur fingers instead of using your nails.

It's ok when playing some harder stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
