I pay attention when people get manicures and pedicures. I’ve always noticed it as a guy. When my wife goes to get her nails done, I’m always very aware of it.
Actually, I wear the nail polish to hide how grubby my nails are.
Maybe the nails are a little stubby and gnawed on, but I definitely do not have man hands.
A little bit of sun does wonders! With good protection, of course. Vitamin D is just so good for your hair and your nails. I also love coconut water and coconut oil from Whole Foods. It’s amazing. You can cook with it, shower with it… you come out of the shower like a slippery seal, but it works.
No one likes getting their nails done more than I do.
I love getting my nails done. My mom’s best friend is a manicurist. When I was little, she’d do little paintings on my nails, like flowers. She comes to our house. It’s the best.
Some guys talk about swinging through the ball, but I think about impact like hammering a nail. My dad actually had me hammer nails to understand the concept.
I love Hailey Bieber and Rosie Huntingon-Whiteley’s style. I am a big fan of neutral tones and Rosie nails it, so chic, so classic.
As a producer, I’m trying to challenge myself to just make something that is of a professional quality – not necessarily pop music, but maybe in the sense that Nine Inch Nails is professional quality.
I include lots of nutrients like Omega 3 fish oils in my diet, which work wonders for my skin, hair and nails. I also pack in the greens and drink lots of water, rather than choosing foods that make me feel lethargic.
I’ve never had my nails done – look at them!
It probably wasn’t until Nine Inch Nails played the first Lollapalooza that I actually went to a festival.
From my hair to my toes to my nails. Everything’s fake. Everything! Even my heart is fake.
My mom was an aesthetician and she went to beauty school back in the ’60s. I just remember watching her do her makeup all the time. She always had her nails done, makeup on – her face was ready to go when she went out. I loved it.
I was in the cement end of the construction business, as a laborer. I was pouring concrete, and stripping forms off of set concrete, and pulling nails, and stacking plywood, and doing that kind of thing. I was in peak condition in those days.
Can I get a mochaccino?’: a statement that, for many, is worse than any number of nails down a blackboard. Not on account of the coffee – most of us drink Ventis aplenty these days – rather it’s the ‘can I get?’ – three words that regularly top the list of British bugbears.
I feel like athletes lean into this indestructible character. But unless you’re doing something really shady, no one nails every day of their life. You’re always going to have rough patches.
Since I started acting, I had to quit a lot of bad habits. I’ve tried to stop biting my nails, because people always look at your nails during auditions. Truth be told, I still have a ‘cheat nail,’ but I’ve been cheating less and less.
If you are dressing up, then dress to the hilt, else let it go easy. But no matter what, pay attention to the nails. Whether you keep it short, long, varnished or plain, it has to look good.
I have the reputation of being easygoing. But inside, I’m like nails. I will kill.
With a lot of hair and make-up then I’m possibly, remotely attractive. But it’s rare, I don’t think I’m ugly but I’m nothing particularly special. I’m not a yoga and health girl. I don’t exercise that much and I eat crap and smoke and bite my nails.
There is a joke that your hammer will always find nails to hit. I find that perfectly acceptable.
Shoes are a great invention. They keep us from stepping on nails. Your feet stay clean and warm and dry.
As a child, I was always interested in building things. Instead of buying candy, I would purchase nails, which I used to construct things out of scrap wood. My mother always claimed that my spending my money on nails instead of on candy was why I was so skinny as a kid.
Man is a wingless animal with two feet and flat nails.
We found that the most exciting environments, that treated people very well, are also tough as nails. There is no bureaucratic mumbo-jumbo… excellent companies provide two things simultaneously: tough environments and very supportive environments.
I love French films, and I copy things I see in them. I read magazines and also look at Tumblr. I love nails, so I literally just search the word ‘nails’ on Tumblr and start looking.
I finish off my manicure with Dior’s Gel Coat, which has a thicker consistency than most top coats. It dries quickly and leaves your nails really shiny.
I have these long nails, but I literally do nothing to them! The thought of filing my nails drives me insane.
I use pure acetone Nail Polish Remover from Nails Inc. to really strip the nail. It’s actually important to dehydrate your nail a little bit to get rid of all of the oil before you put color on; then the color will really stick. Then, I use OPI Bond Aid. It’s a liquid dehydrator that you paint onto each nail.
I still bite my nails.
I use a nude color on my nails all the time!
I love my job. But I like to have fun at work. So I don’t get finicky if one strand of hair is standing out in a shot. I don’t get finicky about broken nails. I don’t let small things affect me. I’m not perfect. Nobody is. There’s no fun in being perfect. I enjoy my work; there’s no pressure on me.
I get plastic nails done in the salon. When I was younger, they were stronger, but now I get my nails built up. Then I can dance over the strings. I say, ‘Okay, I need four nails; I’m a guitarist.’ Sometimes if I’m in a strange place, the girl says, ‘Yeah, all the guys say that.’
Painting my nails is the easiest way to look as though I’ve made an effort.
Certain people in the United States are driving nails into this structure of our relationship, then cutting off the heads. So the Soviets must use their teeth to pull them out.
I am personally am a fan of buff nails – not so much of clear polish, but a great buff nail is amazing.
When I was 10, I had dyed red hair, and I used to paint my nails – I think my mum secretly loved it.
It’s funny, when you have a theme so particular to cows – or it could be anything like hair or nails – when you’re rapping about a specific thing, you can have more punchlines about it.
When I was super young, and everybody who has been in fan of mine from the WEC days, I was just tough as nails, fearless and that’s what made me tick. I’m not those things anymore. I’m fearless, but I plan ahead. I’m strategic. I’m smarter, and I’m just a different person than I was.
‘Fake’ used to be an insult, but now it’s a badge of honour, with hair extensions, tans and nails all artificial, but looking fabulous.
I’ve always liked wrinkles. When I was a young girl, I used to make lines on my face with my nails because I loved Jeanne Moreau. I always wanted to be older; I always added years to my life. For the longest time, if people thought I was older, I would take it as a compliment.
Corsets were a challenge in ‘Belle;’ fake nails tripped me up in ‘Blackbird.’ Guess I’m not a mani type of girl!
When I do fall in love, I’ll go to the ends of the earth for that person. I’d lay down on a carpet of nails for the person I love.
I don’t love duck nails, where the nails are really wide on top. I am not a fan of that!
I’m not gonna sit and pretend I’m hard as nails.
I’d hate to be a sex symbol. Because you’re always having to live up to an image. I haven’t got time to sit around doing my nails.
I got makeup tests and hair tests for ‘Versailles,’ and the main thing they were obsessed with was that my hands were disgusting. I had three years of Irish dirt under my nails. I had to have manicures and everything.
I’ve been doing the Vietnamese nail lady impressions since my mom first took me to get my nails done when I was 12.
As your newly crowned queen of Earth, it is my first royal decree that flats are sexy and nails are optional.
As long as it feels valid to me and feels sincere, I’ll do what I do under the moniker of Nine Inch Nails if it’s appropriate. I would hate to think I would ever be in a position where I’m faking it to get a paycheck.
I live at the dentist’s. I’m on my third set of teeth that they put in with nails and screws.
No brilliance is needed in the law. Nothing but common sense, and relatively clean finger nails.
Nine Inch Nails is like building an army to go conquer. We build it, then we play, and we have to play so much to validate building it, financially. It leads to getting burn-out because a tour that would be fun if it lasted three weeks has to last 15 weeks.
I have never gotten my nails done.
There was a time when nails were high-tech. There was a time when people had to be told how to use a telephone. Technology is just a tool. People use tools to improve their lives.
I don’t want to say that women who do use makeup or get breast implants or have fake nails are insecure. They’re entitled to that, and they should do that if that’s what they want to do. But for me, there are no answers. It’s just a matter of preference and choice and fetish.
Like for ‘Black Nails,’ I just had black nails – and I never have black nails. It was my first and last time getting black nails. And that’s so not normal for me. So when you’re recording, you’re up at the mic and you gotta name the file, so I just look down and I’m like, ‘Black Nails!’ That’s literally what it was.
