forestry, I'm not at all sure they melt. Having set one on fire more than once (long nails, smoker, temperamental Zippo), I can report with authority that they burn (but can be blown out, like a match). The nail was charred and black afterward, but its shape not altered in a way that suggest any of it had melted.Fingernails! What temperature do they melt at?
They are made of keratin aren't they, i didn't think they melted, or if they did it would be at very very high temperaturesFingernails! What temperature do they melt at?

I know this is 12 years old, but I can now atest that they do in fact melt. I was trying to pick up bacon from a hot pan with my nails (not very smart, I know but they are long enough that the grease doesnt tuch my fingers) and in the process I melted my fingernail. It turned a caramel brown color. So, whatever temperature bacon grease gets is hot enough apparently.
