Having a full manicure at a salon is so enjoyable on many counts. I have found that false nails are either: 1. The pre-glued press-on ones eg from H&M, which are ok for wearing out if you dont do anything hugely fiddly with them. Rummaging in my purse for a lighter, or engaging in any […]

Same here. I used to bite mine very very short but now I have long nails naturally. They started to break at first but I have found rounding the corners off and using OPI nail envy strengthener has worked miracles. They no longer break and I have to file them as they get too long. […]

It’s easier if you grow your own. I used to be a terrible nail-biter but I started growing them 7 years ago. Doesn’t work for everyone due to the nature of their jobs, but my job is all done on a computer. I’ve had a few people mention my nails but I just tell them […]

like above i get packs from superdrug but of late Boots has come up trumps for me ,  male nails tend to be flatter but I’m not using extra large sizes just the standard female ones in-store, and find they fit really well, and  with good glue rather than the included tiny tubes of shite […]

Can anyone recommend a source of false nails on the high street?

Reply Many of us may dwell on age and getting older, it is quite a common trait regardless of gender. But worrying about age can have a damaging effect on our lives too, busy worrying can lead to not enjoying and being happy with ourselves. Never too old to still love the things you love. […]

Reply Having visited London clubs in the past like Sweet Wednesday and Legs I can confirm the majority of girls were ladies in their fifties and up, sometimes you could even see white-haired ladies who must have been in their seventies. Reply Well, I’m 67 and can never see myself being able to stop, quite […]

Reply I don’t know whether to be offended or perhaps put this down to a badly phrased question. It has been previously posted Be a wrinkly old grandad. Or a stylish, if wrinkly T granny. My choice has been made, I ain’t hanging up my bra any time soon. Age is just a number. If […]

  Reply Hi Sarah you look fabulous so any retirement on your part will be society’s loss. Ultimately it is your choice and I don’t have enough of your personal circumstances to guide you one way or the other. However, I will say I turned 52 yesterday and these last two years as Debbie have […]
