    I can’t remember which 70’s, 80”s folk artist is was, but he did a video on nail maintenance. He layered his finger nails with , I think it was either fiber glass or silk cloth and acrylic finger nail polish. 1 of his songs said “if you need a friend you can count on me”. he was huge way back when.

    I used to get my right hand layered, I think it was acrylic at salon and it would hold up for month or so. If you have never entered he world of a nail salon it can be quite an experience.

    Now I mostly hybrid pick and most of the fingering is using the ball of my fingers more than the finger nail. Softer sound though.
