Make Vampire Fangs Using Fake Nails

So you want vampire fangs, but not tacky dollar store fangs, or expensive custom fang inserts? Here's a quick and easy method to make your vampire fangs using fake nails!

Steps

  1. Obtain a pair of fake nails. Pick out the pair closest in width to your eye (canine) teeth.
  2. File the nails to be more triangular. Make sure they are as even as possible.
  3. Hold the nails to your teeth, to make sure they fit nicely and you like how they look.
  4. Paint nails white, or off white. If you want, paint the very tips red to make it look you've recently dined. For a wet look, add a coat of clear nail polish after the white has dried.
  5. Check the fit and look again once they are completely dry.
  6. Apply denture glue to the inside of one nail and affix to your tooth. Usually you will have to hold the fang against your tooth for a minute or so as it dries.
  7. Repeat with the other fang.
  8. Finished.

Tips

  • Make sure you don't make the tip too sharp, or else you could hurt yourself by accident.
  • If possible get white nails.
  • The fangs can be as long or short as you want. You can get the really long, curved fake nails for more impressive fangs, as well.
  • Don't try to bite people. Even if you're trying to be funny, these are very sturdy and can hurt people.

Warnings

  • Make sure you don't use the fangs to scare people with heart problems, psychological shocks and children. A simple prank can turn into a disaster easily in such cases.
