Follow these natural ways to get longer, healthier and prettier nails:
STOP NAIL BITING
Biting nails is a regular nervous habit for many; it can cause bacterial skin infections on your hands and in your mouth. If you have dry or loose skin around your nail beds, make sure to clip them away rather than biting them off.
STOP WEARING ARCYLIC OR GEL NAILS
Acrylic or gel nails leave your nails dry, brittle, and unlikely to grow. Even proper removal can damage your nails because it occurs with soaked nail-beds. When your nail beds are wet, they are most sensitive.
STOP PICKING YOUR CHIPPED NAIL POLISH
Picking at your polish often removes the top layer of your nail bed. This forms a weak base for your nails so stop picking it for faster growth.
STOP SKIPPING TOP COAT AND BASE COAT
Base coat is used to protect your nails. It’s not hard to skip base coats or top coats when you’re in a rush and want your polish to dry fast. However, when you skip these, you’re damaging your nail. They protect your nails from staining; plus, they help the polish adhere to your nails, so that it chips less. If it chips less, you’re less likely to pick at it and further damage your nail.
HAVE MORE FOOD WITH FOLIC ACID
Folic acid helps in preventing damage to your nerve cells and keeps red blood cells healthy. It is the best vitamin for nail growth. Fish, red meat, cheese, and fortified soy products are high in folic acid
