Hi narutowindy, there is no built-in setting for this.
Firefox supports applying custom style rules to the user interface using a file named userChrome.css in a special location. Your request actually has come up before on the subreddits related to Firefox. The complexity is that the "title" of a new tab isn't completely consistent between versions of Firefox or different languages. But for Nightly you could try:
#main-window:not([title^="Nightly"]):not([title^="New Tab"]) #PersonalToolbar { visibility: collapse; }

I've edited the above reply to remove a sparse trailing comma.
#main-window:not([title^="Nightly"]):not([title^="New Tab"]) #PersonalToolbar,
where should i create userChrome.css file ?? on linux ??
It goes here:
[profile folder]/chrome/userChrome.css
In addition to the above links, see: Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data
You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
- Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Profile Directory:
Windows: Show Folder; Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
- create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
- use a plain text editor to create a (new) userChrome.css file in the chrome folder (file name is case sensitive)
- paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window
- make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
