I recommend trying them before buying them. I ordered a set of Alaska Piks online and found two issues (which other people may or may not experience):
- They didn't fit well. They require long nails (they won't fit under short nails) and they were incompatible with the particular curvature pattern of my nails. Besides, I bought them so that I wouldn't have to put up with long nails, yet they didn't stay in place without long nails.
- They're uncomfortable, because you have to wedge them underneath your nails and they pull on your nails.
In the end, I decided that buying Alaska Piks had been a mistake.
