Nails and nylon strings
 
I play steel string acoustic finger style and use liquid gel fingernails that I have done at the nail salon. I want to start working on a classical nylon string guitar. Will the strings be able to handle these nails. They are not sharp and I keep them filed and polished smooth. Does anyone out there use salon nails on nylon strings?

I don't, but it isn't uncommon. They won't damage the strings.

A lot of people do...it's not an issue.
