I am sure I am not alone here. I am 6'3" and with that comes larger hands, with larger fingers. Not lumberjack or farmer hands, but larger than most women's hands. I have yet to find nails that fit my size of hand, has anyone found a brand that offers larger sizes and where could I find these?

Thank's

Julia

Sally Hansen markets nails for the larger hand. Where I live Dollar Tree carries them. They work well for me.

If your game to wearing them all the time, Like I do, you can goto a nail salon and they have them to fit anyone. BTW, mine have gotton as long as 1/2" past my figure tips at times and no one has said anything negitive. The times that anyone has noticed, it has be positive and complementary.

I have worn just about every type of glue on or press on nails. Salon nails fit the best. They have all sizes to fit any nail bed. If you are uneasy about going to a salon , go to one in another city. You will be surprised at how nice the the tech's are. They look at it as business.....just a new customer. It almost seems like they are being extra nice to me since they don't want to embarrass me. Everythime I have been to get my nails done I have had a great experience. It is one of the few times you actually get talk about girl stuff and not be "on guard". I love going to nail salon's.

Take care...

If your game to wearing them all the time, Like I do, you can goto a nail salon and they have them to fit anyone. I would like to add, if you get a set of tips and an acrylic overlay, then the nail tips that are used in the salon do NOT fit anyone - they are still the same size as the ones you can buy yourself. They are still sized for women's nails - most times if the nail is too large they will either use a nail form and scuplt a nail, or use two nail tips that are cut down and go side-by-side. I am lucky that my nails are not too wide for the nail tips to fit, although they have to use a #1 tip (the largest) on my thumb...

And please - if anyone is considering going the artificial nail route, please read my threads in the Beauty Club about how to choose a good nail salon - many nail salons use banned materials that can do harm to your nails!
