MrsStevenMarkJones answered Friday September 30 2005, 1:41 pm: ok i have had acrylics twice. (graduation and senior pix) but go full acrylics. even if your nails are bit to death, they will still be able to put them on. but dont takethem off yourself, hurts like hell trust me. depends where you go, typically 30-40 dollars depending on things. good luck!

I personally would suggest acrylic tips for you, since you have short nails. And, they are MUCH easier to remove than full acrylics.

cHeErcHiiCk answered Thursday September 29 2005, 9:37 pm: first of all.....when you get your nails done they always just put tips on... they cover it with acrylic.... there's not just tips with acylic or full acrylic unless you are getting the acyrlic on just your natural nail....for a french manacure full set it would probably cost around 25-30 dollars.
plus i leave a tip but thats just me
hope i helped

orphans answered Thursday September 29 2005, 9:21 pm: I'd actually recommend gel nails instead of acryclics. I've had both, and by far, I liked the gels better. The acrylics don't last as long, and they don't look as good as gels do. But, if you still want to go with the acrylics, I'd say get the tips. I believe both gels and acrylics are french manicured in the first place. If you go for the really expensive gel nails it's about $40 but if you go with the acryclics I'd say maybe $25.
I hope I helped!
