    Please never grow your nails out for spinning. It's just disturbing...

    This post has been made before. http://forum.upsb.info/showthread.php?t=3772& They just make the short, stubby, fat fingered spinners look like they have thinner or longer hands/fingers. It also somehow "promotes style." It's dumb and it doesn't really benefit your spinning imo. The super long nails just get in the way of combos and tricks.

    i grew mine out!! i got used to them. besides the awesome jeb feel, scratching feels like this.... [SPOILER="LIKE THIS!!!!"][/SPOILER] downsides i guess is keystrokes get WAAAY noisier, instruments like piano get difficult. guitar other other stringed instruments become impossible (unless you can figure a way outta that) keeping them is up to you, I LIKE THEM THO!!! p.s. dealing with haters is a nessesary skill

    lol whether you grow it or not depends on you totally :rofl: Grow them, then if you don't like, cut them all and never grow them again ... If you do, keep the nails They just add some sort of 'appealing' to your combo, nothing more

    meh... i grew mine out really long... like juminuwo long, but they broke alot and got in the way. there were some benefits like better style and opening ziploc bags and such... but in the end i clipped them and i enjoy spinning much more now :D completely your choice. i thought they got in the way, but it simply looks amazing on some spinners.

    LOL @Reason, opening ziploc bags. Basically, some people think they make PSing look nicer, but it is all personal preference.

    But if you look at the number of people who like compared to those who don't, more people don't like it. Or in their words, and my own, they are disgusting. Especially because it isn't normal for guys to have long nails. I'm a girl and even I don't keep my nails long for Psing. I can't stand long nails, even on me. And I think they get in the way a lot when I spin.

    It depends on the type of nails, if they look good when long. Special kinds of nails just doesn't look good when they are long because of their shape.

    I don't like very long nails. I keep them at reasonable length so that they don't get in the way.

    The length of some peoples nails is just disturbing. How do they not bother you when you have them that long?

    Think about it this way: If you have long nails, most people say they don't like it. If you have short nails, those who like long nails don't complain.
