Watched old film with Lady Paree last night. She has so long fine painted fingernails! Too long to be practical, ok. But why so many of todays RLDetc. girls dont even care about having sexy nails at all? Dont even paint them? Dont even grow them? Or stick artifical ones on fingers before porn set?
Its just not fashionable to care too much about her appearence behind her body being in shape, I guess. Why?

I like them trimmed and painted, but I would not want long long fingernails. When they start jamming those fingers into orifices, that would be like 5 mini razor blades going in.

I'm with Denver on this one, I detest long fingernails, I really think they look tacky!

Each to his own though, I really like period costume in porn... and yet isn't the object of porn to get the women out of their clothes? lol

Add another vote in favor of short nails, at least in scenes involving finger penetration. To me, it's MUCH sexier if the woman feels free to wiggle her fingers as much as her partner likes, without fear of scratching or abrading any of the sensitive tissue inside.

I'm with you on this Shameless. If a woman is trying to groom herself to be as sexy as possible, nails are as important as any other part of her wardrobe or makeup.

I believe that I have seen a lot of studios neglect the aesthetics of properly grooming their stars to look their best. It is one of the huge problems I have with studios like Ana/Dia or RLD (although RLD is getting better). It is also the biggest reason I love Evil Angel, Private and Dorcel releases. They simply make their ladies look their best.

aybesea,

I agree with you about grooming and paying attention to the aesthetics of presenting the ladies in the best light possible. However, that's doesn't necessarily translate to long fingernails, IMO. Manicured, trimmed, painted, etc., yes.

Don,

I'm not talking about 3 inch curving affairs here either. But long enough nails to tell that they are a lady's and not a man's seems reasonable to me.

This interests me because I have never looked at a womans' fingernails in any way in terms of their sexuality/feminity. Do you think this is a generation/social caste thing? I am 27, not involved with very glamorized women, and possibly a generation or two before me embraces well groomed fingernails and more overly glamourous/cosmo type women. But culturally/ethnically it seems more important also from what I have observed in my small sphere of life. Most latin and black chicks that I hang with do their nails long and gorgeous. They also spend enormous amounts of time on their makeup and hair. The white chicks I hang out with don't. Go figure.

Possibly you are seeing women in porn without nice fingernails because its never been an issue of attractiveness with them or in their social setting. I find this cause for a moment of consideration for myself over what aesthetically is so desirable about well painted fingernails; it really is a personal thing. Some men love dolled up women (makeup/nails/jewelry.) Others prefer natural women without so much decoration. (Hell, I like HEAVILY tattooed women.) From watching porn, I notice that euro/private stuff has women with nice nails more than US stuff.

The near-disappearance of those odious trailer trash fake nails has been one of the best developments in porn in the last few years.

Of course basic in porn film is fucking the 3 holes of a girl. But than every girl to me is a piece of art. Only presented in right way girl can interest me more.
I dont want reduce girls to classical basic pussy-tits-ass, also not to more elaborated pussy-tits-ass-head-legs, but all her body and all you can do with it.

I am glad many of you agree that state of average porn girls finger nails is bad at moment. Me, too, at least I want them <trimmed and painted>, feminine in 1 word. Maybe Cherokee could be good example in that field (not in anal field, though). Ultra-long nails like Lady Paree had, are not practical and even dangerous, I agree.

I agree with you guys on this one. For practical reasons, I don't mind seeing short nails on a girl as long as they are well-manicured. It's laughable for me to see girl-girl scenes with girls with really long nails because I know how dangerous it is to do lots of finger insertions if the girl has long nails.

For The Fashionistas, we told all the girls that they needed to have their nails (hands and feet) kept up nicely during production. This was specified because one of our cast members doesn't usually do manicures or pedicures. She did a wonderful job of paying attention to her nails during the shoot, and I think it made a big difference in the production. (On the other hand, I hadn't planned on being in the S/M scene until the night before, so I hadn't had as much of a chance to prepare my looks. I was working on crew and moving stuff for the production for the previous 3 weeks, so I was kinda bruised up and my nails were horrible...)

Those of you who were at the ADT breakfast in Las Vegas in January know that I had to go get my nails done before the show opened because I don't normally keep my nails as nice now that I'm a mom and I'm not on camera. But being a porn girl should mean paying attention to all details of your looks - skin, hair, nails, shaving or trimming job, clothes, etc.

We find well groomed nails as part of the total package. Fit body, nice tan, sharp hair, etc. It just goes to show you that the actress really cares about what she is talking about.

It just crossed my mind that I ought to post you this link of Alaura Eden to illustrate what I am talking about.

Here you have it: Such an ultra-cute girl, a good position and fingernails every aestet will start crying. I still dont understand this negligence on side of girls, make-up artists and directors!

Why this?

Hands are important but feet are more important IMO especially if the girls are going to do foot-fetish movies.

I do hate extreme long fingernails, a girl like Kassie Nova comes to mind, she looked like Freddy Kruger to me with those hands.

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE LOnggggg nails, ala Kassie Nova and Heather Lee. Super long nails look amazing wrapped around my cock (or any cock in a vid) and also look dynamite when the girl plays with herself, digs them into the sheets, has her hands splayed out flat against a wall and most of all, if and when she smokes. I like to see 6" or 7" inch heels, long nails, long hair, toe rings aned belly chains, TAN LINES (YUMM) and all kinds of decorations. The more elaborate the details, the better!

Yes. I've always had a fetish/attraction to women's hands. It stems from me taking too much interest in my nails when I was younger as a form of regulating anxiety. I keep my nails short but not painfully short. It is my biggest turn on if a woman has pretty hands especially without a lot of veins from working out; and my biggest turn-off if nails are broken, chewed, dirty, or too long with dirt under them. I like small and delicate hands, so very trimmed natural nails, but also short glossy ones, and long ones similar to black and latina women like Cardi B (although that's a bit extreme). My favorite is probably 1.5 times the nail bed and French tips or flesh colored. Black nails look good with some goth women. I always look for porn with either really pretty hands with natural trimmed nails or very long ones for blowjob scenes. Goes along with nice hair, lingerie, and high heels.

An example is I recently met a woman in my apartment building who I could not see well due to the covid-19 face mask. But her hands were so goddamn pretty and her nails were trimmed and clear manicure. I got very turned on and wanted to pursue something with her, before I even could check out her body well (she was wearing heavy sweater and coat).

You want to check out Leila Larocco, her interracial bangbros scene she has really well done and pretty nails. Her other scenes too.

Not everyone likes super long nails though. I like them short and painted or manicured. Leila is the rare occasion where I like them long because she just pulls it off and it goes with her whole brunettes Barbie doll look.

But yeah nails are important. I've stopped watching some gloryhole scenes because the girls nail polish is like half worn off or chipped, I mean FFS this is porn... how do you shoot a girl whose nails aren't done?
