A WOMAN has been growing her 14" super-long nails for nearly 16 years and has been designing them with colourful buttons. Janene Reed, 51, from New Jersey, was raised in a strict household that meant no makeup, no nail polish and no brightly dyed hair. When she became an adult and was able to finally express herself, she decided to start growing her nails - and hasn't stopped since. She's been growing her nails since early 2007 and they're currently 13-14". Janene’s favourite nail design is glued buttons to her nails that she has been doing since 2019. Janene gets a lot of stares and judgement but says she likes the negativity as it means she stands out. She's part of the Long Nail Goddesses - a group of women who are addicted to growing their nails, some up to 20" long.

As an Occupational Therapist, I see the compensatory techniques that will eventually cause deformities in her hand joints and the need for someone to help her do a lot of the things she should be able to do on her own in the name of vanity. Not to mention the infection control issues. Cleaning with alcohol twice a week is not sufficient enough to control bacteria.

She can do whatever with her nails design wise as long as she likes it but what I don’t get is her purposely disabling her hands. The way she uses tools looks like someone whose hands are disabled or old an old person with no hand strength.
