You may wear cute acrylic nails. Or maybe your best friend wears cute acrylic nails. Or your sister. We all know several people that are always wearing the cutest, most decorative, and amazing acrylic nails.
However, sometimes we also notice that person is always single. So that led us to ask the question: Are cute acrylic nails worth it for attracting love into your life? Do guys even notice when we spend hours getting cute acrylic nails done? And if they do notice our cute acrylic nails, do they like them?
Do They Turn Men On?
It seems as though the jury is still out on this matter. Some of the men that are polled state that they love the cute acrylic nails when they see them on their girlfriend, wife, or date. Some other guys say that they don’t like the high maintenance appearance of acrylic nails and that they aren’t worth the money or the effort.
A lot of guys that like cute acrylic nails say that they can tell a girl’s style by looking at a girl’s cute acrylic nails. If they’re incredibly jeweled, for instance, guys say that means that the girl wearing them really enjoys dressing up and being adorned with jewelry. If she has the sport length square-tipped acrylic nails, the guys say that she probably is an athlete or typist, therefore she needs to keep her nails short but cute.
Some of the acrylic nail styles that guys seem to dislike more than others are the almond shaped acrylic nails, and the extra long length acrylic nails. The almond shaped acrylic nails come to a point and are often adorned with jewels or wild designs to draw attention to them and the sharp point that they have. Guys say that it makes them feel that the girl might be the type to hurt them with nails of that style.
As far as the extra long length acrylic nails, guys say it seems like those acrylic nails would prevent the girl from being able to hold their hand or handle any food items, and they are pretty turned off by them. However, that’s only a certain group of guys that provided those answers, and every guy is different. What would be important is what the guy in your life or your crush thinks about cute acrylic nails.
Can They Make Your Love Life Better?
In a sense, yes, they can make your love life better. When cute acrylic nails make you feel better about your appearance, you are more happy and confident as a person. The type of person that you are and the way you feel about yourself is exactly the type of person that you attract. That means that if you feel cute and confident, you will attract someone that is cute and confident. It’s the universal law of attraction.
Will they instantly make men flock to you? Well, probably not, but that isn’t a guarantee that they won’t. In other words, men who like the way acrylic nails look will take a second look at your nails. However, cute acrylic nails will probably not be a deciding factor in whether or not someone is attracted to you. If your nails are the only reason that someone is attracted to you, it probably isn’t going to make for much of a relationship anyway.
What Are Cute Acrylic Nails?
Acrylic nails are also known as artificial nails or faux nails. They consist of a false nail and a mix of a liquid monomer and a powder polymer being brushed over the nail tip which hardens into a coating that adds strength to the tip and holds the nail into place for long periods of time, often 2 to 3 weeks.
If you have weak nails or cannot grow your own nails because they are the type that split, acrylic nails could be a great choice for you. In addition to looking like you take good care of yourself, they lend the hands an extra something special. They’re great to have if you’re showing off new jewelry, like a new ring or bracelet. You can coordinate them with your outfits for a super themed look.

Types Of Acrylic Nails
There are several new types of cute acrylic nails that are becoming popular. Acrylic nails are tips glued onto your natural nail, then covered with an acrylic overlay. The nail is then buffed and shaped, and polish and clear coat are applied. Of course, you can add jewels or designs anytime with your technician after the nail has been buffed and shaped. These are the “classic” acrylic nails that have been around for many decades.
Gel Nails
Gel nails are more expensive than your regular acrylic nails. The polymer resin that is applied takes a UV light to harden on the nail, but it is applied in the same style that the classic acrylic is applied. The gel nails are more expensive, but they are also more flexible and look more natural. This is because the gel is about the thickness of a coat of nail polish. Another nice thing about the gel polymer is that it is completely odor-free during application.
Powder Nails
Powder nails are one of the new trending nail styles. After the nail tip is glued in place, a base acrylic is applied as an overlay. Then the nails are dipped into the client’s choice of colored powder. The great thing about the powder nails is that they last about 3 weeks longer between fill-ins than your traditional acrylic nails.
Silk Or “Wrapped” Nails
Wrapped nails, or silk nails as they are sometimes called, have a fabric wrap glued on to the natural nail. The purpose of this is to strengthen weak nails. The fabric is silk, linen, paper, or fiberglass, and it is removed usually during the fill in.
Shapes Of Acrylic Nails Commonly Spotted
With all of the current buzz on acrylic nails and the celebrities that are now showing off the latest nail trends all over social media, there have been several new styles and shapes of acrylic nails that have become popular. Some are very extreme looking in nature, while others are much more subdued and natural looking. Here are some of the most popular cute acrylic nail shapes being seen everywhere today:
Lipstick
This is one of the newer acrylic nail shapes that we are seeing everywhere. It is pretty much what the name implies that it might be. The nails have the shape of a new lipstick in a tube.
Coffin
Another of the new acrylic nail shapes that are being spotted all over television and social media, the coffin shape is like a stiletto, but the tip is squared off at the point, much like an actual coffin shape.
Almond
Just as the name implies, the almond shape is a rounded point at the end of the nail, just like an almond is shaped. This acrylic nail shape is the shape that brought about the newer pointed designs that are all of the rage.
Mountain
Like a mountain range, these acrylic pointed nail tips stagger in height just like the tops of a mountain range would appear.
Squoval
This is one of the classic acrylic nail shapes, and it is simply the combination of the square and oval shaped tips. A square nail is started, then the corners of the nail are given a slight oval curvature. An oldie but a goodie.
Oval
This is the classic acrylic nail shape. The start of it all. It is the most natural of all of the acrylic nail looks because it mirrors the shape of your natural nail. These days, it isn’t popular and is rarely seen in the spotlight.
Square
The second most classic acrylic nail shape, the square acrylic nail has been around since the early 1990s and is still going strong. You’ll see this look most often in athletes that wear acrylic nails, and ladies that spend a lot of time typing, because it is considered a “working style”. It is the least likely nail shape to give you problems in your every day life because you’re wearing acrylic nails.
Round
The runner up for second most old school classic acrylic nail shape, this is a more defined oval shape than the traditional acrylic nail.
Celebrity Acrylic Nail Trends
Everywhere you look, you see celebs with acrylic nails that are customized and definitely took some time to accomplish. It seems every celeb has her own style and signature brand of acrylic nails. You could probably recognize a lot of them simply by the shape and length of their cute acrylic nails.
Although not every celebrity is crazy about having a signature acrylic nail trend, those that do continue to dazzle us with the creativity and dedication to keeping up with the unique look of their acrylic nails. Here is a list of some of the best celebrity acrylic nail wearers:
Rihanna
This Trinidadian singer is very well known for always bringing her A game when it comes to her celebrity acrylic nail style. Rihanna wears the extra long square tip acrylics and usually has a single color nail lacquer, but she has been known to do some design with her polish.
Gwen Stefani
Motherhood certainly hasn’t stolen any of Gwen’s style, especially when it comes to her acrylic nail game. She wears a medium long square tip, and is a solid color type of chic who will occasionally dress them up with rhinestones for special events.
J Lo
Jenny from the block has had cute acrylic nails since the early 90’s as a fly girl, and her nails are still quite fly. She is very well known for her long, squoval tips that are usually theme painted and jeweled for the occasion. We hope she never stops wowing us with her acrylic nail game.
Kylie Jenner
Although her sisters have been known for being acrylic nailed vixens for years, Kylie is relatively new to the nail game. In the past 5 years or so we’ve seen her nail game take it to a level that the rest of her family should aspire to. She wears long, square tipped and theme painted acrylic nails. They’ve become their own instagram sensation.
Cardi B
We’re pretty sure that Cardi B is praising her nail tech when she clucks and coos, because her nail game can’t be touched. Her extra long stiletto tip, dressed up with themed paint, rhinestones and jewels will steal the focus from her voice if she doesn’t move her hands every 4 or 5 seconds while on stage.
Billie Eilish
Relatively new to the limelight, she didn’t take long to get her cute acrylic nails up to speed on how the celebrity game goes. With an extra long square tipped acrylic nail, adorned with jewels most of the time, this youngster will hopefully continue to wow us with her great acrylic nails.
Are Cute Acrylic Nails Just For Your Hands?
Absolutely not. One of the great things about acrylic nails is that with a skillful nail tech, it’s no problem to have a pedicure that matches your manicure so that from your head to literally the tips of your toes, you look polished and put together. There is absolutely nothing worse than leaving the house in cute sandals, only to look down and see that your unpainted, ragged looking toenails have completely ruined your look for the day.
A trend that we started seeing a few years back was that many people, celebrities included, were doing the matching mani pedi duos, and this is a look that we hope continues to trend. Not only is it absolutely beautiful and artful, but your feet look as though they belong to the rest of your attractive self when the polish, jewels, and acrylic tips on your toes are matching your cute acrylic nails.
The premise of the acrylic toenail tip is pretty similar to the acrylic fingernail tip. We’re going to cover the method and styles of the acrylic toenail tip in this next section, and some of the ways that this may help you use your cute acrylic nails to draw love into your life.

Shapes Of Acrylic Toenails
Thankfully, we’re not seeing too many of the newer style acrylic shapes that come to a point when we’re dealing with acrylic nail addition pedicures. The natural shape of the toenail is what looks best, and while there are some occasions during sandal weather when one or more of the new style acrylic nail shapes might work on the acrylic pedicure, it seems that staying with the natural shape of the toenail is what looks and feels the best.
Remember that no matter how cute the pedicure is, you still have to put your feet inside shoes, so the more dramatic the pedicure works, the more of a chance that you run that you will mess up your pretty, bejeweled toes. Length should be just a ¼ inch or so over your natural edge of your toe so it isn’t so long that it would snap or bend painfully when wearing closed toed shoes.
Usually the acrylic pedicure is something that you see in the summertime, but in tropical climates, it can be and is worn all year long with sandals, because there is no need to wear close toed shoes in those climates. Just remember that the cute acrylic nail pedicure looks adorable if it is done correctly and to an attractive shape and length. You don’t want to go overboard with your acrylic pedicure, which is quite easy to do.
Squoval
This is one of the classic acrylic nail shapes, and it is simply the combination of the square and oval shaped tips. A square nail is started, then the corners of the nail are given a slight oval curvature. An oldie but a goodie.
Oval
This is the classic acrylic nail shape. The start of it all. It is the most natural of all of the acrylic nail looks because it mirrors the shape of your natural nail. These days, it isn’t popular and is rarely seen in the spotlight.

It is the least likely nail shape to give you problems in your everyday life because you’re wearing acrylic nails.
Round
The runner up for second most old school classic acrylic nail shape, this is a more defined oval shape than the traditional acrylic nail.
Most Often Worn Pedicure Shape
The acrylic pedicure is most often worn in the squoval shape because it is the closest to the natural shape of the toenail, just a much more polished and buffed finish. It is the easiest to wear along with closed toed shoes without cracking or snapping the acrylic nail, however, it isn’t recommended that you wear anything other than sandals when you have acrylic toenail tips on. It can very easily ruin all of the pedicure work that you have paid for when you wear athletic shoes or boots with your acrylic toenail tips.
Do The Acrylic Tipped Toes Turn Men On?
It seems as though the jury is still out on this matter. Some of the men that are polled state that they love the cute acrylic toenails when they see them on their girlfriend, wife, or date. Some other guys say that they don’t like the high maintenance appearance of acrylic toenails, and that they aren’t worth the money or the effort.

If she has the sport length square tipped acrylic toenails, the guys say that she probably is an athlete or swimmer, therefore she needs to keep her nails short but cute.
Some of the acrylic nail styles that guys seem to dislike more than others are the almond shaped acrylic nails, and the extra long length acrylic nails. The almond shaped acrylic nails come to a point, and are often adorned with jewels or wild designs to draw attention to them and the sharp point that they have. Guys say that it makes them feel that the girl might be the type to hurt them with nails of that style.
As far as the extra long length acrylic nails, guys say it seems like those acrylic nails would prevent the girl from being able to hold their hand or handle any food items, and they are pretty turned off by them.

Can They Make Your Love Life Better?
In a sense, yes, they can make your love life better. When cute acrylic toenails make you feel better about your appearance, you are more happy and confident as a person. The type of person that you are and the way you feel about yourself is exactly the type of person that you attract. That means that if you feel cute and confident, you will attract someone that is cute and confident. It’s the universal law of attraction.
Will they instantly make men flock to you? Well, probably not, but that isn’t a guarantee that they won’t. In other words, men who like the way acrylic toenails look will take a second look at your nails. However, cute acrylic nails will probably not be a deciding factor in whether or not someone is attracted to you. If your toenails are the only reason that someone is attracted to you, it probably isn’t going to make for much of a relationship anyway.
Are Acrylic Nails and Toenails The Look For You?
To answer that question, you need to determine if you have the time and money for the upkeep. They do add up after a while, as a full set will run around sixty dollars, but depending on how complex your designs are, it could cost up to $100. The fill in sessions will run somewhere around the fifty dollar mark, depending on how complex the designs are as well. This is just for the acrylic nail tips, your pedicure session will cost about the same per sitting.
Ideally, you will want to have them both done at the same time by the same nail tech so that they look fluid and similar. This is going to be a time-consuming affair though, because each set is going to take around an hour to complete, so it could be a total of almost three hours in order to get both your nails and toes done.
Most women would agree that they do make you feel put together and as though your look is really complete. Some women won’t be seen in public without their acrylic nails and toenails, but it really is a matter of personal preference.
