Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
A WOMAN has been growing her 14 super-long nails for nearly 16 years and has been designing them with colourful buttons. Janene Reed, 51, from New Jersey, was raised in a strict household that meant no makeup, no nail polish and no brightly dyed hair. When she became an adult and was able to finally express herself, she decided to start growing her nails - and hasn't stopped since. She's been growing her nails since early 2007 and they're currently 13-14. Janene-s favourite nail design is glued buttons to her nails that she has been doing since 2019. Janene gets a lot of stares and judgement but says she likes the negativity as it means she stands out. She's part of the Long Nail Goddesses - a group of women who are addicted to growing their nails, some up to 20 long

I have found my addiction to nails and the artistry that comes along with it I used to be a woman who wore medium length but trying the long nails open a new door I absolutely love them!
You can get more designs it has more of an edge look and is quite fun challenging yourself to do things a little bit different comes to cooking, bathing etc.
It's fun and I'm not going to lie when my nails are done a little bit more dramatic my man actually likes it. and to hear yourself clacking when you talk with your hands I don't know it's like a fun overly girly overload

As an Occupational Therapist, I see the compensatory techniques that will eventually cause deformities in her hand joints and the need for someone to help her do a lot of the things she should be able to do on her own in the name of vanity. Not to mention the infection control issues. Cleaning with alcohol twice a week is not sufficient enough to control bacteria.

Way to many accommodations are needed to live with these extremely long nails. You can-t clean these enough, and I ain-t gonna walk around with utensils to help me zip up my clothes/shoes. I understand that she likes the art of it, but c-mon now, this is just flat out ridiculous! But they are pretty --

She must be blessed w naturally strong nails! I would also love to have stronger nails to have them a bit longer. At work I even break the top off short nails lol. It's also manual labour involved. So yeah I bet we can learn a lot on hacks and nailcare from her
reply

I try not to judge anyone she seems happy and that's what matters I just wonder if it hurts how many times has she got them snagged on something or shut in draws it just looks very painful -

I did some really pretty nails today and my husband said bc they are too long they are -ghetto- lol smh I love them, they make me feel pretty. Mine are shorter than the techs lol no stones

If we simply stopped fearing things we aren't used to and/or are social conditioned to deem -normal- we would respect others to a higher level. You do you. Let her be her. -

Beautiful nails, to each his own, but I could never eat anything she cooks or just anything from her hands, I'm a germofobic and I don't know what's under those nails.
reply

It doesn't hurt to let go of something you love when it hinders your everyday life. Someday her husband won't be able to help. She might have to get rid of them nails.
reply

Personally having these nails would really irritate me but each to their own! They're styled beautifully and so creative. Happy for her & her partner
reply

Yet another example showing that Society does not expect anything from Western women whatsoever. It's so sad. The privilege is off the charts.
reply

Omg. her nails are so beautiful. I do have long nails but not that long. the type of job I have won't allow me to have them lol
reply

Doesn-t $300 seem cheap? Especially she said every other week maintenance. All together once a month $300? I could be wrong.
reply

The fact she thinks cleaning her nail underneath twice a week with alcohol says a lot. Don-t bake any biscuits for me.
reply

Patience of a saint and shows how much she loves her nails. I couldn-t do it but as long as she is happy.
reply

I always wonder how people with nails like that manage to do thing properly and even wash their private area proper
reply

I love long nails. not that long but to each his own if shes happy then who cares. I think her nails are pretty.
reply

To each is own but sorry I can't eat from her and yes I don't eat from much people even those with short nails
reply

Would be interested in seeing how they remove the nail polish on those delicate nails. Love the buttons btw!
