What to use / how to make nails strong and healthy?
I often wear false nails, mainly because my own nails are fairly soft and brittle. I do understand that I’m not doing them any good though, as wearing these makes them even worse. I have removed my false nails and want to know if anyone has any helpful information as to how to clean them up and start a regime to make them strong, healthy and able to grow them without them splitting and breaking as easily as they do now.

more nutritions like fruits and vegetables. u can put the nail polish on that makes nails thicker or harder to break.

do not leave your nails plain if you think they’re brittle. purchase a colorless nail polish because they make the nails stronger than any other nail polish.

I also recommend the Knox gelatin, which is inexpensive and can be found in the baking area of any grocery store. Also, try polishing your nails with a few coats of Sally Hansen’s Hard as Nails. I’ve used it for years and it works really well. Biotin is also great for nails, it is a vitamin health supplement that can be bought at most drugstores and promotes the growth of healthy skin, hair, and nails.
Good luck to you! I think natural nails look nicer than fake ones anyway. I hope you can grow a nice healthy set. 🙂

There are a range of products specifically for this – called nailtiques. ( check for them on line…they are available in beauty salons too) I have tried other brands but they didn’t work.
I had really short peeling and weak nails after removing my acrylics…they’d been pretty rubbish before that too.
Now I apply a layer of clear protein varnish ( nailtiques protein no 2) every night before I go to bed…and my nails are amazing…I have to file them down to stop them getting too long now !( this has taken just 6 weeks) I have not broken a single nail, and have had no splits or cracks in all the time I have been using it….it’s miracle cure ! It costs about £16 per bottle but is well worth every penny
