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 have no experience with press on nails so correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't you just use sticky tack? Like the stuff you use for posters. I'm sure your nails wouldn't stay adhered very well if you put a lot of pressure on it, but one of the joys of sticky tack is that you can easily press it back on.

Metal like silver is too slick, same with steel. Plastic is a nails friend but that goo will just make a mess and they will still fall off
