Ok, back now...
First of all, there are a LOT of people out there who think that acrylic nails are bad for you, and that they ruin your nails. One answerer stated that they look trashy and that every time she sees someone's nails after they have been done, they are red from the tech being too 'rough.' BTW, did you see any glue being used to 'hold' the acrylic? Many people think the acrylic is ';glued'; on. It's not. Glue is used only on plastic nail tips which many good techs do not use at all.
Well, the simple fact is this: If you go to an experienced,a nd highly skilled technician who uses nothing but the best available acrylic nail products, your nails will not be ruined in the least bit. Nor will they be red from being too 'rough.'
You will read many answers on Y!A that tell you these same things, and more. Where you go to have your nails done plays a MAJOR role in all of this. In order for you to understand what I mean, you need to have a basic understanding of the different types of nail salons in general. It's really pretty simple. There are basically only two different types of salons: The NSS salon (Non-Standard Salon) and salons which use top quality products, and have experienced and skilled technicians who know their job very well, and are truly dedicated to giving you the best possible nail services. These salons will cost more, and will generally require an appointment, but it is so worth it. The nails you get from a good salon are not trashy looking, not fake looking, and certainly will not damage your natural nails.
An NSS (AKA 'Discount' salon) is loosely defined as any nail salon which charges, say, $25-$30 or less for a full set of acrylic nails. They are everywhere these days - in strip malls, in shopping malls, on the street corners of just about every city in America. These are simply salons which do not do nails in ways that would be considered a 'standard,' or traditional. This is the type of salon that people go to who complain that their nails have been ruined, or that they are in pain during, or after the nails have been applied. Avoid this type of salon at all costs. Seek out a highly reputable salon with top notch technicians. One more thing that is important is that there is not a language barrier between you, and the nail technicians. If there is one, it is very difficult to have any of your questions/concerns addressed and that can lead to many problems for you, or anyone who goes to one of these techs. You need to be able to clearly communicate with the technician. That is very important, IMO.
It's always best to be well informed prior to going to any nail salon. This way you can be certain you are getting not only your money's worth. but also that your personal health is not in jeopardy in any way either.

I hope this helps...
PS: It is not a fungus which grows under improperly applied acrylic nails, its normally a simple bacterial infection. Fungus rarely grows on fingernails, and is normally found on toenails instead. Anyway, the bacterial infection can be caused by water, or moisture that becomes trapped between the nail enhancement and the natural nail. Or is can be from the tech using dirty files and implements on your nails. Proper sanitation and disinfection is very important in a nail salon. Be sure that wherever you go to have your nails done that they are spotless, and that they use new files on every customer and also disinfect any and all implements between uses on each customer.I want to get acrylic nails.?
I don't have video but I used to get it done. Here is a general idea:
. Glue on fake nails to get length
. Cut to desired length
. Paint on glue for acrylic
. Use little paintbrush to get acrylic powder wet and it makes little balls
. Pat little ball on top of nail
. Paint on white
. Clear coat
This is just a general idea and there are two ways to get french manicure this is acrylic and there is 'pink and white' where the powder is two different colors. There is A LOT of drilling to get them formed and they need a flat surface for glue to stick so they file your nail down very thin (which is why it took me forever to get normal nails). I decided not to do it anymore because of the price, pain and time. But they are pretty :-)
My sister has acrylic nails with a french manicure! She loves them, but the problem is that they are not good for your nails. They ruin your natural nails. Also, if you don't get the nails done every week, a fungus can grow under it. The fungus is when water builds under the acrylic nail because you haven't gotten them done in a while so they start to come up.
I have never had these done as every time I see someone's nails after they've had a manicure, they are so red and they always say the person was really rough. I don't trust my hands in anyone else's grip!
Plus, frankly, I think they look trashy. Even if the person is not so. You can tell they aren't real and if you are going to a wedding where the bride may possibly have hers done like this, it would be tasteless to have yours done the same way unless you are a part of the wedding and that's what she requested.
If your nails are that bad, try soaking them in warm water with lavender oil (or soap) for a few days, filing them down to just a bit over where it turns white on its own and then putting just a gloss on them...or maybe a light pink or flesh tone.
YouTube has a selection of videos to watch on getting them done. Here's the page I found when I typed it into the search engine:
