I get people asking me what I do to make my nails grow long and strong... well to be honest there is a portion of that is dependant on genetics - however there are a few things that you can do to help that!
~ give your nails a break from polish once in a while. They need to breathe!
~ I use Barielle Nail Strengthening Cream before I go to bed and when I wake up.
~ don't use your nails as tools: type on keyboards with the pads of your fingers and don't use your nails to open up packages etc.
~ drink lots of water and eat foods that are high in protein (lean meats, beans, and nuts)
~ get good doses of Vitamins C, A, B, and D - each vitamin helps your nails differently.
~ use gloves when exposing your nails to hot water for a long time - like washing dishes!
~ wash your hands with soap and water after using nail polish remover.
~ if your job doesn't allow you to grow your nails long, keep them short and neat and filed all to the same length.
