-Painting nails can protect them from being damaged to a certain extent, you see colored nail polish blocks light from the nails which for some people would start the growth on fungi on their nails
- if you use a acetone based remover thats not good for your nails because it may dry them out over time, so use a non acetone based product for removing nail polish.
If you take good care of your nails then painting them should not be a problem

It is both good and bad. Nail polish, applied correctly with a base coat, 2-3 layers of polish and topcoat, offers a hard protective coating to nails so that breakage is lessened. However, constantly polished nails become weaker with time. The nails themselves don't have to be as strong since they are being protected by layers of polish. I like to let my nails breathe for a few days after 2 or 3 polishings. (Is that a word?) :) It keeps them from getting too dependent on the extra protection and allows time for conditioning between applications. I opt for a more expensive base/top coat with less emphasis on the color coat.
