whenever they start to break..
i'm weird cos i keep my left hand nails shorter than my right... a habit that stuck with me when i used to play violin/guitar [i finger-pick] a lot more than i do now..

I have a clipper on my desk, and clipping is a good TWA. So they get clipped whenever they need to be clipped.
My toenails take care of themselves. I used to bite my nails, really badly. I don't really know how I stopped; one day, I just decided not to bite them any more, after chewing them for at least a decade.

I usually chew the fingernails off my left hand when they get annoying long or when the fiance says they are uncomfortable in her unmentionables. My right hand is 100% different. I play flamenco so I usually spend once a day buffing the sides and tips of my right hand fingernails. I keep them from 3-5 1/2 millimeters long(starting from the end of the skin under the nail.) I also have to shape them every week or two depending on how much I play. I get a lot of funny looks but I couldnt live without my nails and periodically I end up wearing silk wraps when I break a nail.

I cut them whenever I start scratching people by accident, or when they get caught on the inside of sleeves as I'm putting on clothes or anything like that. My mom was always jealous of how long my nails could get... guess that's not really such a great thing for a guy though...

my fingernails are fucking awesome... it's not like i paint them up and flaunt them, but they are awesome... and they grow hella fast. my work is pretty dirty, so when it gets to the point where i can't clean the dirt out from underneath them anymore, i'll trim them up.
my toenails are just weird, and they don't all grow at the same rate. i'll cut each nail when it starts catching my socks when i'm putting them on.

now, i know its a contentious issue atm regarding the appropriate grooming of the modern metrosexual, but i´m pedantic about fingers, and finger nails.
mine are very carefully maintained. they grow quickly, so i´m constantly touching them up with the clippers and file. i know some guys who have taken to moisturising hands at night, and who also apply that diamond fingernail polish... but i´m not quite that pedantic. its also a really big issue when i´m meeting new girls... if i don´t like their hands and nails, then thats a breaker right there.
