The conversation kicked off earlier this year when creator Ashley Shim posted a TikTok highlighting her "short nail theory."
“All the girls who wear their nails super short—you just know they don’t give a flying f*ck.
They don’t care.
They’re living their best life.
You just know she’s a baddie, and she’s really freaking confident," she explained in the clip.
Basically, the idea is that short nails are for Gen-Z (ie. cool) and long nails are for millennials (ie. embarrassing).
It's Really Not About the Nails
What the whole debate really boils down to is a fear of aging on Gen Z's behalf.
For example: what nail shape you like best because it fits your hands and will be best for gardening/pickling/cartwheeling, not because TikTok told you to like it.
