TIP 1. INSIDE AND OUT: What makes up your nail comes from the inside so target that first by drinking lots of water. Keeping your body hydrated constantly makes your body have to work less on hydrating and more on growing. Your nails depend on you to maintain a healthy diet which consists of a large quantity.
TIP 2. NAIL POLISH: Nail polish is bad for your nails as it keeps them from getting fresh air. However, you can still wear nail polish if you take care of your manicure. You do not want the polish chipping or cracking because parts of your nail goes with it. Also, wear a base coat beneath every nail polish to stop the colour from tinting your nails and the ingredients from soaking in as much.
TIP 3. AVOID BRITTLE NAILS: Brittleness is what starts an unhealthy chain of events for your nails so avoid brittle nails! You can do this by increasing calcium in your diet, sparingly use substances containing alcohol which is nail polish and purfumes lotions, wear rubber gloves when you do chores and don't use your nails as tools. You know what i mean...attempting to open things that you need actual tools for!
TIP 4. FAKE/ACRYLIC NAILS: Avoid regular use of fake nails and if you have acrylics then i would re-think them. My mum used to have them which i thought was crazy because she has the best nails you have ever seen, no joke. They are always long with white tips and never break. So they became to much matience for her and she got them removed. After they were removed she notice that they were much weaker, they took longer to grow and were discoloured. They have recovered now but it has been 2 years. So i wouldn't reccomend getting arylic nails because they do ruin your actual nails and stay damaged for quite a long time after removal.
TIP 5. NAIL FOOD: This was kind of mentioned in Tip 1 but in this tip i will mention specific foods that will help with your nails strength. these helpful foods include asparagus, apples, brown rice, eggs, garlic, grapes, nuts, onions, salon, seeds, soy, tuna and whole grains. (The foods listed are from a website and i did not list them, that is not my writing).
So they are just a few tips and tricks i have learnt so far. It's just some things that i do to keep my nails healthy and strong.

do you paint your own nails or get them done at a salon? you know so much about beauty and i have just realized this as you started making these how to posts. These are very helpful and i think that people on here are going to start copying you. like hannah montanna once said. i create the trends not copy them. your such an individual.
Nice tips jordy!
I recently got gel nails because my natural nails would grow long but then get weak and peel/break off. I'm loving my long nails, theyre so strong and while I do worry about what my natural nails look like underneath, I'm sure it wont be too bad.
These advice posts that you've been doing lately have made me wanna post stuff other than hauls and things about my life lol!
