They sure are elegant, but practical?

Well that depends on who you ask.

Today, we're answering the age old question:

What's better,

long nails or short nails?

Now let's see.

Anyone feeling brave?

Pick me! Pick me!

Give it a whirl, Sofia.

Chalk?

Now have at it.

GAH!!

Her nails are dragging against the board!

Make it stop!!

Any chance this answer's a short one?

Is it actually getting worse?

C'mon, Sophia, you almost done yet?

Please, we can't take it anymore.

You've done enough.

I'll sit down, what's the big deal?

They're just long nails, geez.

This new cereal's so delicious!

If I weren't so full, I'd have another bowl!

No, I don't do dishes.

Fine, let's play for it.

Rock, paper, scissors!

Haha!!

Looks like you're doing dishes today!

But I just got my nails done.

There are like, five more in here!

Ugh!

Well, may as well get this over with!

At least these will protect my hands.

Oooh, that's snug.

Hey!

So much for one size fits all, huh?

Maybe I'm not pulling hard enough.

Gah!

They tore right through!

I wanted to wash dishes not morph into Wolverine!

So much for protecting my hands now.

I'm just not cut out for chores.

Yes!!

That sure came fast, huh?

Hey! Thanks for coming so quick!

Mmm, it smells good.

Two noodle bowls comin' right up!

One for you and one for me!

Oop, gotta slice this guy open.

This usually works.

Ahh.

Now for the chopsticks!

How do you open these things?

There.

Whoever invented these

didn't take long nails into consideration.

Sophia's halfway done!

Well, this means just one thing.

The good old nail scoopers.

Why bother with utensils?

Just don't be surprised if you get some stares.

You washed your hands first, right?

Okay, this is just too hilarious.

Say, noodles!

Get this action shot right here!

Why'd it take us so long to find this place?

Their tea is delicious!

Can we have the check please?

Have a nice day, ladies.

Just a few bucks!

I got change after work last night.

I got it.

Hey!!

How'd that even happen?

So embarrassing.

C'mon…

I can never pick anything up with these!

They may as well be glued to the floor!

A little help here please?

This is so stressful.

How'd you do that?

Thanks!

Beauty comes at a cost, I guess.

Well, a few cents in this case.

Ahhh.

I sure am groggy this morning.

But I still gotta get ready.

First step?

Cleanse the skin.

Ahh, that feels good.

Now for a little rose water refresher!

This always wakes me up.

Hey!

Anybody home?

Why won't it squirt anything out?

It's all over my hand!

Ugh, whatever.

Movin' on to the face cream.

That's better.

Nothing like soft, supple skin.

Woah!

That's two days worth of cream in there!

These things hold onto everything!

I don't want to waste it.

Well now I don't need to double dip.

Self care Sundays was the best idea ever!

Hello, beauties.

I'd better get to bed.

Nothing wrong with feeling your best before bed.

Time to retire the phone

and hit the lights!

Ahh.

Ooh,

I totally forgot to take my contacts out!

Ughhh.

I've got to take them out.

I don't wanna poke my eyes out!

Well?

I'll just be extra gentle with it.

I can't feel anything.

Ugh, I didn't get it.

Okay, new angle.

How do I do this without poking myself?

They've gotta come out some how!

C'mon knuckles, don't fail me now.

No more games.

Yes!

Could that have been any harder?

Stupid nails!

But look how pretty they look!

Now for round two.

Let's do this.

Ooh...

that one was not pretty.

Glad that's over.

Any blood shed?

I'll call that a win!

Rise and shine, Lana!

Ahhh!

Lookin' good this morning!

Do I want to go through that again?

Nope, it's a glasses kind of day.

After all, they're pretty cute.

With good friends, hanging out if effortless.

I'm pretty good at nails!

Ooh! That itches!!

Lana!

Think you can help a girl out?

That the spot?

Oh, yeah, that's it.

You're the best Lana, thanks!

But with other friends,

hanging out becomes…not so effortless.

Hey look at those beard scratchers!

Excuse me?

You have no idea how good this feels.

Thanks Lana, your nails rock.

Well, at least you're popular, right Lana?

Yikes.

Oh man.

Hey Lana.

Hello.

Aw look at him.

I can't let him suffer like that.

One head massage, comin' right up.

Ah, sweet relief!

This is amazing.

My hair still looks pretty clean.

Shower cap it is!

Perfect!

And it's pretty cute.

This body, however, isn't so clean.

But I'll be smelling like a flower in no time.

Let's lather it up, people!

But if you have long nails,

Your skin gets more than a good scrub.

But the water's so warm, you don't even feel it!

Well, not yet, anyway.

Alright, all clean!

How refreshing.

Nothing like a nice hot shower, right?

Ow!!

What's that?

Did a cat attack me in there or something?

Nope, just another case of long nail problems.

Why nails, why?!

Aw man.

Would you dare to rock long nails like the girls in the video?
