Concerning gloves and nails!!

So as you can tell by my picture I love my long nails I was wondering if it possible to find gloves that will fit over them. Or would I have to stop getting acrylic nails and have short nails forever

Ok... I'll answer this for realz. I honestly have the same problem. I don't have fake nails, but my real ones grow out pretty nice and since I'm not that girly, my nails are one thing that I like to keep "girly." I have found that I now have to get powder instead of shellac to keep my nails from bending and breaking in the gloves, and I cannot keep them too long or they get uncomfortable. Especially clutch hand...

Find some gloves that fit longer in the fingers or go with guys gloves. Right now I have A*s Stella SP-1s in a Large, even though I have fairly small hands, and the fingers are pretty short. I don't know who makes gloves that fit a little longer, but you may just have to try a bunch on. Two Wheel Toyz has a decent selection of mens... no one really carries enough women's gear to try on in Houston. Most places will order for you and if it doesn't fit, they'll return it for you.

Finally someone who understands me!!!! <3 That's what I was thinking that maybe it would start to get uncomfortable when using the clutch or brakes, because really my nails are the most girliest thing about me! And they are always done, so I will go hunting for some gloves with more finger room, but if I cant find any I guess it is bye bye nails I'm really afraid of one breaking or ripping inside the glove while riding but I still would want to keep them! Thank you Trish!! You are the diamond answer amongst the rocks*cough*guys*cough* lol
