Short, wide, wide tipped finger nails? Ew...?

Ive had this for a long time now and my fingernails are short and wide. It looks disgusting, how can i fix this horror?Short, wide, wide tipped finger nails? Ew...?
nail varnish? file or go to the salon?Short, wide, wide tipped finger nails? Ew...?
why are they disgusting? If they are well kept but just flat and wide I can't see why they should be a horror for you. However, nails reflect your diet and often react to illness and nutrients (or lack of them) in your system. Try the links below for more info. Extentions are OK but can damage the quality of the nail over a long period. They can make your own nails soft and thin. The second link looks interesting. As to what you can do, probably ask your doctor if you can see a dermatologist, someone who specialises in skin and nail problems.
file and paint them.square tips can work really great for short nails.Go get a nice nail file. Keep them well groomed, no chipped nail polish. Id go get a manicure to start with and then try to maintain on you own to save some money.Moisturize you nail with hand cream or cuticle cream it will keep your nails from chipping and looking harsh.I generally wear a a very short, squared tip with a french manicure to keep them clean.If you have trouble with your nails chipping sallys sells a stronger than nails and other nail strengthers to let your nail grow out without chipping.You can do the french yourself by buying a white polish and clear coat. If you dont have a steady hand, Sephora sells a manicure pen...its basically a white paint stick. This is amazing to sweep over the tip of your nails for a clean white end.Even if your nails are super short you can ';create'; a tiny white end.This is great when you dont have much time. You can also paint them. You can also file the ends to try and round the nail. this can be pretty but not always easy to achieve also your nails have to be longer. but if your nails are naturally wide it might be hard to achieve this look properly. Hope this helps a little
Uhm, don't quite know what you mean without a pic. But you could always try growing your nails so theyre not so short? You can't obviously change the shape of your finger(tip)s but you can grow your nails longer :)
Go get a manicure and have them shape the nails different.
Remove them with pliers and pour alcohol on the wounds.
