How can I make yellow nails healthy again using natural home remedies?
Home remedy for yellow nail syndrome .. You may not have these things.

What are some ways like homemade natural ways to make your nails grow faster?
i dont bite my nails, i use the other nails to msorta peel them off and then my nails ares shortWhat are some ways like homemade natural ways to make your nails grow faster?
I used to have soft, peeling nails so I stopped using a nail clipper and only use a nail file to shape and shorten them. I also started protecting my nails with thicker moisturizers.
I read somewhere that nail clippers can cause the layers of the nail to separate and filing is the best way to go.
I started with Revlon's disposable files made for weak nails. File in one direction only. Start on one side and file towards the middle, then go to the other side and file towards the middle of your nail. Smooth the nail into a squoval that mirrors you cuticle or the shape of the white part of your nail bed.
Finish the edges of the nail with a hindo stone, a smooth ceramic/stone nail file or the finest grit nail file you can find. You want to make the edges really smooth.
Revlon makes a tool that should work. It is a pink half moon shape and you can run it under/across the nail from side to middle.
(I have an old hindo stone but haven't been able to find a replacement at a local store. The Revlon tool might be easier for you to find.)
Also, avoid using metal nail files. I recommend using disposable nail files and changing them frequently. The fresher the grit, the less the drag which leads to tearing and peeling.
Some people swear by glass nail files but they can shatter if dropped.
I also use a cuticle balm or nail oil to moisturize my nails and protect them from water since I wash my hands frequently.
(ex. Solar Oil, OPI Avoplex)
Vit E oil, jojoba oil, Aquaphor Healing Ointment, Vaseline or plain Chapstick will work too.
Avoid products w/ formaldehyde or toluene, they are very hard on nails.What are some ways like homemade natural ways to make your nails grow faster?
Gelatin capsules can be bought at any drug store.
Eat healthy. Keep your nails trimmed and neat. File in ONE direction only (not back and forth).
Eating healthy is really the best way to improve anything physical (and emotional too). Make sure that you have enough of your dailies and you should see improvements.
Another great thing that I do (but don't know if it's just an ';Old Wives Tale';) is to tap your fingernails on something. It supposedly makes them stronger. I don't know, but I do it all the time when I'm bored and my nails are great.
it take vitamin E everyday an drink lots of milk... or prenatal vitamins will help too
I've heard about prenatal vitamins. But a great way to make your nails look white and healthy, cause sometimes peoples nails can get a yellowish color, is to soke them for 5minutes in pure lemon juice everyday. my nail tips look like I always have a french manicure! works great!!
Start taking ';Horsetail Grass'; it is very good for your nails also good for you hair also
I've hard garlic, It's suppose to make them hard. You can also dip them in milk I've heard.

What is the best Natural way to keep your nails from breaking and peeling?
I dont use nail polish but I like to keep my nails well maintained and filed. They grow very fast and long but after a while they tend to crack on the edges and peel up though. Can you suggest something that is NATURAL that can help? Meaning NO chemicals or polishes.What is the best Natural way to keep your nails from breaking and peeling?
Do not use a nail clipper. Only use a nail file to shape and shorten them. Protect your nails with thicker moisturizers to protect them from exposure to water which dries them out %26amp; makes them brittle.
Try Revlon's disposable files made for weak nails. File in one direction only. Start on one side and file towards the middle, then go to the other side and file towards the middle of your nail. Smooth the nail into a squoval that mirrors you cuticle or the shape of the white part of your nail bed. Avoid filing down the sides of the nail.

Drink KNOX Gelatin it strengthens them
I swear to you that when I do absolutely nothing to mine, that is when they grow and look their best. If I file around on them and put a clear coat or something like that on them, they break and split everytime.
Have more calcium, it helps your nails become stronger. You can either drink lots of milk, or you can take daily calcium vitamins.blackheads

Which are more natural-looking...acrylic or gel nail extensions?

I think gels look more natural, iv had Acrylic, Gels and Fiber Glass and Gels are by far the best.Which are more natural-looking...acrylic or gel nail extensions?
I would stop biting your nails. Then, when they get to a length you like them at, they'll probably break. So use some nail protein or clear nail polish to make them nice and hard (sally's hard as nails product is good). So no fake nails... That damages em. Let them grow, and apply nail strengthener. It makes them shiny to :)
Remember: No more biting !!!
Gel is good.

Tips for strengthening natural nails after removing acrylic...?
I've worn acrylic nails for 12 years, and recently decided to try my hand in growing my own nails. While they're growing, they are still very soft and break easy. I'm looking for tips in strengthening them faster.Tips for strengthening natural nails after removing acrylic...?
Go to: http://www.hoofalive.com/ This is a product that was used on horses and cows before humans noticed that their finger nails were getting hard. Very good product and should be just what you need. You can find it at some health food stores and of course feed and grain stores.Tips for strengthening natural nails after removing acrylic...?
Glad I could help, from W.LA, Ca.
The best way to keep them from breaking is to polish them. Even though they are probably very short and won't look as cute polished, the polish will help strengthen the nails and protect them from damage while they grow back out.
honey, there is nothing you can do about it. your nails will just have to get hard on their own. it might take awhile, but after a few months if they don't harden up, go back to acyclic.
i just took mine off to (a month ago). my nails were so gross so i purchased ';nailtiques formula 2 plus'; from folica.com. it really helped my nails grow quicker and strengthened them so much because of all the protein in it.
