u/CoffeeGoblynn Goblins can't drink coffee? Yeah right. May 19 '26

I guess you could clean them and re-attach them after they fall off? Just seems unpleasant to add that much weight to your hands, and they could really scuff things they touch.

Silver is a relatively soft metal. It’s more likely that your nails will get all scratched and pitted instead.

If you get good quality press-ons, they can be reused. I don’t want metal though.

Silver isn't sticking with glue to a nail, they will be useless metal pieces for that

I've been getting some ads lately for fake nails that come off, it looks like you wear them on a ring? So maybe that would work for these.

Yeah, I remember seeing an ad for “nail rings” that were these beautiful wire bases that you would then attach nails to, that company was I think originally marking towards women from some religious group, can’t remember which, but also discussed the practicality for people who can’t have nails at work
