How do you get longer fingers?

There isnt really a big way to get longer fingers, but try pulling them hard a few times a day. To make the illusion of having longer fingers, bend them slightly at the knuckles, and keep your nails a tad bit shorter if you have long nails, and if you bite your nails, grow them longer. Having nails about as long as your fingers at a rounded shape and not polishing them with extremely bright colors works well at giving the illusion of longer fingers. Crack your knucles and pull each finger often to grow fingers. Hope this helps! ;)

Why is nail polish bad for your fingers?

It's not bad for your fingers, but if you leave it on for long enough, it suffocates your nails because your nails can breath (believe it or not) so when you take off your polish and your nails are yellow, take a break from nail polish. In the mean time you can use fake nails to hide the yellow.
