Fingernails or toenails:

How often do you cut your nails?

How short do you cut your nails?

With what do you cut or shorten your nails?

How you style your nails?

How you colour your nails?

How do you clean your nails?

Have you ever ripped off a nail?

Do you chew your nails?

Do you get manicures/pedicures?

I bite my nails about once a week and sometimes color them blue or pink.

I use nail clippers and a file every 1-2 weeks. I cut off the whitish portion of nail at the tips.
A have a tendency to cut around the sides, which leads to hang nails :(
I also use a fail to smooth out the rough spots (they catch on my clothes and are scratchy.)

Nail clippers whenever I notice the need, I guess every two weeks or thereabouts.

Used to chew my nails but suddenly stopped at one point many years ago.

I clean them indifferently (only really make an effort if I've been handling something nasty).

I have more than once experienced the joy that is ripping off a nail (or at least part of one). I have also experienced ingrown toenails that required medical attention on a couple of occasions (years and years ago).

I don't chew my nails, but I don't use nail clippers either. I just kinda pick at them once they get too big.

I find it interesting that 6 people chew their nails, while only 4 people chew their nails.

I tend to chew my nails, but sometimes I use scissors to cut my nails. For the feet I have to use scissors, since I'm not that flexible. But I always tend to clean my nails well. I hate dirt behind them

You catch it on something, you pull, and it tears off.

It's sort of unpleasant.

A nail on my right food once fell off. It didn't hurt, actually.

I clip as needed. Pretty much every several days one or another is long enough to clip. I keep them very short, and a few times have accidentally done it painfully short. I have had nails ripped off.

Same here. In a twisted way, it's feels somewhat good.

I can usually go a week before I have to clip them again. After that I risk breaking them at work or something.
