Abstract: A doll having extendable fingernails and toenails. Unexposed lengths of the nail extend into the hollow portions of the doll's body. The nails, held in place by grooves on either side of said finger or said toe, are extended by the use of slight outward pressure or the use of electromechanical means. In such manner, new nail surface may be exposed and the old surface cut away. This permits the manicure and painting of the nails, generation of a new nail surface, and the subsequent removal of old nail surface by trimming of the nail or otherwise.
