Tim  They called themselves Guerrilla Divers. Composed of elite divers with Macho mentalities, back when men were men, and FEAR was a lispy companion of the common Man. It was a time before insurance liabilities, lawsuits or beauracratic regulation of the "sport". Guerrilla divers didn't need "Buoyancy Compensator Vests". In fact, "Anyone who needs a BC deserves to drown" was a popular adage. Exploration and the Hunt came first, excitement and fun followed. Safety was the stepchild of fitness, good reflexes and a cool head. This was a time of great Adventure. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odvaMAq7dnc |

I have had acrylic nails for about 15 years now - been OW certified a year and a half now. I do everything with them (including open boxes) and RARELY break one. I dive almost every week and have never had a problem. I do wear gloves when diving just as protection of my hands but they seem to protect the nails too. IF you don't have a great nail tech and break them in everyday life or they lift you will probably lose them, but if you have a great tech like I do, I wouldn't worry about them. Hey, even if one breaks........the dive is always worth it
 especially if you shot a Hog, like I did yesterday or got 2 lobsters today.

Talk to your nail tech. Different products react differently on different people (I wonder how many more times I can use the word "different"?). When I was having breakage or lifting problems, she switched products for me. I get them done just a couple days before and have them shortened for the trip.
If I get more specific product info, I will post for you. Ia completely agree with the "nail glue vs. super glue" recommendation. Nothing like sealing some water in under your arylic. |
