Acrylic nails

Do people still get acrylic nails? I haven’t gotten my nails done (other than an occasional gel manicure) in years, and I used to get acrylics. I went to the nail salon today, and asked for an acrylic set and they looked at my like i was crazy and said they do powder tips now, so I got that. But it had me thinking, are acrylic nails still a thing people do?
