However, despite the challenges, Ryan said that he can do everything anyone else can with his nails, even cracking an egg.

";People are always amazed that I can crack these", he said.

Ryan said that the inspiration for his unconventional nails came from his grandma who always had very long nails when he was growing up.

He said he loved the sound they made, as well as the crazy designs she had on each nail.

Comments from trolls have ranged from saying that the nails look like "overpriced garbage" to likening Ryan to the titular character in Tim Burton's classic film Edward Scissorhands.

"You can never compare these nails to garbage, garbage will never cost $1000", he said.

Hitting back at the trolls, Ryan said that he thinks his nails are "beautiful", adding that just because they are not to everyone's taste does not mean that there is anything wrong with them.

Ryan said that a lot of people think he gets his nails done for "attention", but he said that this is not the case, and he just thinks that they are beautiful.

"It would probably have to be a life or death situation", he said.
