If you do, did you grow your fingernails or use fingerpicks?

Used to, plan on getting back into it once I have money. :[

I used my fingernails. Never tried with picks.

I used to play more. I used a thumbpick, but not the other fingerpicks.

I sometimes do an absurd combination integrating my fingerstyle into my picking. I started out learning with my fingers so I've grown out my right hand fingernails for years now. They can get freakishly long. I don't really enjoy meeting new people because I can tell they notice the nails and it'd be less awkward if they just asked me about them.

I sometimes fully do use a pick, I sometimes play, 'hybrid", and I sometimes outright, do fully fingerpick also. Yet, I don't use fingerpicks nor fingernails. I simply use my fingertips all the way. Yea, I know I'm a little off base on this one but it works quite well for me.
