Welcome to r/nails! For anything and everything to do with nails and nail care!

Nail Care Series (In Progress):

Intro To Basic Nail Tools

Rule 1: Be civil and respectful.

There is a zero-tolerance policy on anything that can be perceived as bullying, harassment, ridiculing, trolling, or any actions that target an individual in a negative way. This is a place of appreciation for others artwork, so please keep that in mind at all times.

Rule 2: No NSFW content.

Keep images, comments and links work/age appropriate. Anything explicit, graphic, or sexual will be removed. Any photos that depict dangerous, risky or illicit activity is also against the rules (for example: drug use, self harm, using a cellphone while driving, etc).

Rule 3: Flair your posts!

Flairs serve as a way to let users know what your post is about. We do not remove posts that aren’t flared, but the flairs are what our search function relies upon, so we ask that you please assign them to your posts.

Rule 4: Credit the work of others.

If the picture or content you are posting is NOT your own, you are required to credit the artist or acknowledge that it’s not yours, either within the post’s title or in a comment. You will receive a warning before being banned, if we suspect you are stealing others art. PLEASE REPORT MISCONDUCT.

Rule 5: Stay on topic.

All posts must be related to nails (the kind that grow on your hands and feet)! Comments should contribute to the conversation and not derail the discussion.

Rule 6: No advertising.

Self-promotional content (this includes but is not limited to Youtube “trend” & “tutorial” videos, surveys, well as blog posts) are not permitted to be posted without mod approval. If you do not follow Reddit's rules for self promotion and spam, your post will be removed and you will likely be banned. Your account history will be taken into consideration when concluding if you are a spammer or not. Moderators will use their own discretion to decide. Keep the following quote in mind: ”It’s ok to be a Reddit account with a website, but it’s not ok to be a website with a Reddit account”

Rule 7: No trolling and/or spamming.

Report anything that you feel violates the integrity of the subreddit.

Rule 8: No distributing personal information.

This includes name, address, phone number, gender, age, location or links to websites that provide that information like Facebook. Applies to sharing the private information of people aside from yourself as well. Small watermarks are OKAY, however we ask that you do NOT include them in your post titles. In an effort to limit self-promotional content, we are asking users to avoid sharing Instagram/social media handles as post titles. Instead, our users now have the option to customize their User Flair. On r/Nails, you can select and edit your own flair. To do so, log in using the desktop version of Reddit.com, look for where it says “Edit Flair” in the sidebar to the right. This button should be located just under our subscriber count. Click on it for a list of images for you to select from. In order to create your own flair, choose “[CUSTOM]”, and then enter something into the text box (Example — “IG: @nails”). Click 'Save' to finish.

Rule 9: No hate speech or suggestive comment making.

This includes but is not limited to racism, sexism and/or homophobia. And because this apparently still isn't clear enough, insulting and personally attacking other users or making unwanted sexual comments is grounds for an immediate ban.

Rule 10: No politics.

No political posts, political keywords, or political debates.
