*I didn't know what flair to use, but this one seemed appropriate-ish.
I haven't filed my nails since July. This is about as long as I can wear them & still function. I had 3 patches on my left hand, so I've been wearing those while the breaks grow out past my nail plate.
I work for Santa Claus every Nov-Dec & I have to start in the toy shop next week, so it's time to file them down for my own safety & sanity. I did not think it was going to take this long. I don't know where the nail clippers are, but a glass file did the trick.
I think I may actually wait to put polish on them until tomorrow. I know my hands (& any polish I put on) are going to be trashed over the next few weeks.
If you're donating this holiday season, please don't forget the teenagers! A lot of the bigger kiddos especially ask for nail polish & we really like those sample kits that come with too & base coat. They're versatile & appreciated.

I’ve never reduced my nail length so much at once… is there a benefit to only filing vs using clippers to cut down the bulk of the length and then filing for shape?
Ooof I hope you had ventilation or a mask 😅
