Many of my friends ask my how do I grow my nails naturally long and what my secret was. Honestly nail and hair are made of keratin so I just eat alot to ensure rapid and healthy growth. A healthy diet is key but there are other pro tips to achieving this. #nails #beauty #girlpower
Thou shalt never EVERRR EVERRR do the dishes or clean your home without wearing rubber gloves. The chemicals in these cleaning products are very strong and can really damage your hands and your nails. Not only that they will make your nails weaker, they could also give you nasty burns.
Neverrr everr cut your cuticles. Instead, apply cuticle remover gel or cream and gently push your cuticles with a cuticle stick.
Get a good quality nail file. Every time you clip your nails, file them. File in one direction only. When you move it left and right you create tiny cracks that weaken your nails. Polish your nails not more often than once a month. If you do it too often, you can make your nails thinner and weaker.
A square nail seems to break less often than other shapes. The almond shape can be particularly fragile. I personally have oval shaped nails and they barely break. The nail shape is your personal preferance but just stay away from the almond shape.
These are the various nail shapes with the almond being the most fragile and the square being the most stable.
This strengthens the nail. I tried this a couple times and I can say that it does work. Crush and chop the garlic and add to the bottle of nail polish base coat.
