Abstract

Systems and methods for sizing and applying artificial nails. At least one characteristic of at least one artificial nail may be selected using a plurality of nail sizing elements. Each of the nail sizing elements may correspond to at least one characteristic of at least one artificial nail for attachment to a bodily extension. The artificial nails are preferably provided separate and apart from the nail sizing elements.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A system for obtaining at least one first characteristic of at least one artificial nail, comprising: 
 a plurality of nail sizing elements, wherein each of the elements comprises at least one second characteristic, and corresponds to the at least one first characteristic of at least one artificial nail adapted to be attached to a bodily extension.    
   
   
       2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the artificial nail comprises a nail tip.  
   
   
       3 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the artificial nail comprises a full-coverage artificial nail.  
   
   
       4 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one first characteristic of the at least one artificial nail substantially corresponds to at least one third characteristic of the bodily extension.  
   
   
       5 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the bodily extension comprises a finger.  
   
   
       6 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the bodily extension comprises a toe.  
   
   
       7 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one first characteristic comprises a curvature along the length of the artificial nail.  
   
   
       8 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one first characteristic comprises a width extending across the artificial nail.  
   
   
       9 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one first characteristic comprises a length of the artificial nail.  
   
   
       10 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one artificial nail comprises a molded plastic material.  
   
   
       11 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the artificial nail is provided separately from the nail sizing elements, and selected based on the at least one second characteristic.  
   
   
       12 . A method for obtaining at least one first characteristic of at least one artificial nail, comprising providing a plurality of nail sizing elements, wherein each of the elements comprises at least one second characteristic and corresponds to at least one first characteristic of at least one artificial nail for attachment to a bodily extension.  
   
   
       13 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the artificial nail comprises a nail tip.  
   
   
       14 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the artificial nail comprises a full-coverage artificial nail.  
   
   
       15 . The method of  claim 12 , further comprising determining at least one nail sizing element that substantially matches the bodily extension.  
   
   
       16 . The method of  claim 15  further comprising obtaining at least one artificial nail that corresponds to the at least one nail sizing element and attaching the at least one artificial nail to the bodily extension.  
   
   
       17 . The method of  claim 13 , wherein the at least one first characteristic of the at least one artificial nail substantially corresponds to at least one third characteristic of the bodily extension.  
   
   
       18 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the bodily extension comprises a finger.  
   
   
       19 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the bodily extension comprises a toe.  
   
   
       20 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the at least one first characteristic comprises a curvature along the length of the artificial nail.  
   
   
       21 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the at least one first characteristic comprises a width extending across the artificial nail.  
   
   
       22 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the at least one first characteristic comprises a length of the artificial nail.  
   
   
       23 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the at least one artificial nail comprises a molded plastic material.  
   
   
       24 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the artificial nail is separate from the nail sizing elements and selected based on the second characteristics.
