If you’re one of the 50 million people who watched the @simplynailogical videos putting on 100+ coats of nail polish, then you know nails can get pretty out of control. Well, we decided to take the 100 layers challenge idea and kick it up a notch by trying to apply 1,000+ layers of nail polish to a hand. Can it be done? Can we make nail art pretty enough to go viral on TikTok? Will HopeScope end up reacting to this “satisfying” creation? And will we reach the top of #PolishMountain? Today, loyal Theorists, we find out in this ultimate nails challenge!

[@chaoticnekomancer]

Watching MatPat struggle with long nails while I sit here with ~1cm (~3/8 inch) naturally protruding nails is fun. You really adjust the way you handle things SO much, to the point when my nail does break off I need to readjust and almost recalibrate my fingers lol. Another side effect of long nails are super soft and squishy finger tips, almost like cat toe beans.

[@jem5636]

Yeah! Two nails broke off this month and it's so weird. One was just a couple days ago, and I keep rubbing it like a loose tooth.

[@fishplane1230]

I had nails that were at least an inch long for at least a year until last month. Ironically it was weirder getting used to short nails again because it was such a sudden change whereas growing them out was gradual. I was almost constantly breaking the nails on my dominant index finger and often broke the dominant thumb and middle finger's nails as well. It never hurt tho, sometimes I'd just look down and a nail would be gone or almost gone

I think it’s important to remember that on the glove, your nails are not anchored to your body like regular nails are. It’s on a glove that slides some degree. Regular nails you can apply pressure and there’s a “stopping point” where the nail won’t bend any further, and that’s usually the place where you have to do things like opening a soda. Doing this on gloves is going to be significantly harder than regular nails; even with a regular number of layers.

[@metronicmagician1816]

Can confirm this. Currently opening cans of soda is my arch enemy with my acrylics. Also will say though there is a “stoping point” with a certain amount of leverage you can fully go past that and it’s not pretty.

[@whossoul]

​@metronicmagician1816 I actually think opening cans is easier with acrylics!

I never really thought much about what i wear till the creation of style theory. this channel helped me open a new creative branch in my mind towards what i wear, its practicality, how fun it can be to try different things, (and now what 1,000 layers of nail polish looks like i guess!)

The experiment isn't finished though! If you're saying that the difficulty is mostly from the length of the nails and not their thiccness, the only logical conclusion is that MatPat should try wearing professionally applied long acrylic nails to compare. 💅💅 Gotta keep it scientific, it's definitely not just an excuse to keep him in mote videos!!

[@rezzy8590]

To be fair, the fake nail shape they started with was a stiletto. A coffin or square shape would've definitely helped with his "wiping problem". Though, changing his technique to be more flat-handed would've helped too. Trust me, as long as you're not jumping from one extreme to another and instead working your way up, you'll be fine. You'll adapt, just like MatPat!

[@Darkwiccawillow]

I think one thing that was done wrong in the video was the length of the fake nails they used. They were simply too long for MatPat. Having long nails changes the way you do things. Given the length of my nails, when I use my phone I generally use the pads of my fingers instead of the tips. As is they really testing his ability to live with long nails not 200 layers of polish.

How is a scritch different than a scratch

​@@PsilomuscimolA scritch is just a little more gentle, but the actual difference is the length of the scratch. If you're moving your fingertip only very slightly that's a scritch.

Hey Matpat, I’m just here to say thank you. You have done so much for not just me, but for everyone. I have grown up with you. I don’t even remember when I first started watching you, but god I remember it’s been forever. I remember watching the game theories with the white background and the bold black text on them, I remember the very first game theory intro (nothing can ever beat that) and I remember watching you fall into madness over fnaf. It’s been amazing hun. I genuinely have loved every single second of it. You have been there for me always and given genuine fun and brain food whenever most stuff is just mindless entertainment. You have done so much for us Matpat. Thank you, and I can’t wait to see what you do next. Whatever it is, I’ll be here to see it. I love you Matpat. We all do.

[@hollymorgan4214]

My nails are naturally long, I’ve had them that way since I was in middle school and you adapt pretty fast. At this point I can do farm work, play piano, and do my maintenance based job without having to think twice about my nails. (I also get asked to scratch people’s backs a lot😭)

[@Darkwiccawillow]

Oh yeah when your nails are naturally long you just adapt. I’ve put together various IKEA furniture, taken apart/put back together electronics as well last year I created a pair shorts for a little mermaid Disneybound. Dyed them green then spent a few hours sewing on sequins to the back pockets & front to give him a shiny scale look all with long nails. I’d honestly be really interested in a theory where Amy explores how natural long nails change your behaviour.

[@redmi10c45]

I don't know why he'd do it but trust me it's hard as heck to remove if you lose your nail remover. I had hands on experience.

[@grookeymon]

SAME 😭

[@Call-me-Al]

A coarse and then medium nail file helps a lot to get the worst removed if you have thick paint on (5-6 layers). The rest you can remove by just adding a slow drying clear coat, wait for 10-20 seconds and then scrape/wipe it all off.

[@moonwalkerangel7008]

It depends on whether or not a base coat was used, the type and how long you let the polish dry between each coats. If you use a peel off base coat, the shell of the polish can pop off easy, whereas if you are using a long lasting base, it can last longer. It also depends on nail care such as oiling the nails, dehydrating the nail plate, if the polish touches the cuticle, it will peel off

[@ravenpandoragray1619]

I was never a long nails person until I got bored in the pandemic and started doing them myself. I got so used to them that I’ve kept them going for 3.5 years now! (I have a nail tech I go to regularly now but still). Here I things I have done that did not cause me to break a nail: 1. Take apart, clean, put back together, load, and fire a gun 2. A construction project taking down and rebuilding a wall. Twice. 3. Create several clay sculptures Here are things I HAVE broken my nails while doing: 1. Making the bed. (I’ve broken so many nails this way) 2. Opening my car door. 3. Packing a suitcase. Idk 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

[@hal8686]

They could've used gel polish, that would actually dry the nails. It would be more pricey, to be sure, but more efficient

[@whossoul]

I kept saying this too! It would go so much faster too since each layer will be actually dry (not just dry to the touch) in 1 minute!

My nails are naturally long, they’re neat, but yeah, it does make things a bit more difficult, however I am to the point where it gets harder for me to do stuff when my nails break since I’m just not used to it

[@Serra-81]

@@Serra-81 ig maybe cause the natural ones aren’t as long? I’m fine w both vut yeah it does kinda feel like that

[@galaxycat9966]

Yeah it honestly feels weird when things touch my skin right where the nails grow past, it’s such a “touching weird thing in the dark” reaction to me so I don’t really use my hands normally even when my nails are ‘normal length’. Besides, I drum my nails on any available surface to stim and it’s incredibly frustrating if they don’t make the noise, like what’s the point? So I always keep them long
