Five rules to speed up the growth of nails

1. To keep your nails firm, do not rasp their sides, which support the ends of the horn plates. When nails grow  till the edges of the fingers, you should give a square or semi-oval form to your nails' plates. The longer the nails, the weaker they are, so regularly rasp all of the smallest burrs and roughness from the nail plate. 

2. The blood delivers nutrients to the formation of nails area, thereby accelerating their growth, so people with poor blood circulation have nails grow very slowly. Improve blood circulation, regularly massaging the skin around the cuticles. Heat also accelerates blood circulation, so in the summer - nails may grow faster.

3. Long nails will stay longer if you cover them with varnish. Start with a base layer suitable for your type of nails, then apply the polish. Contrary to popular belief, some modern varnishes strengthen nails, and do not weaken them. Doing household chores, wear rubber gloves and never use your nails as a scraper. 

4. Like the hair, the nails grow faster in summer. In the winter and during the changing seasons nail growth slows down and increases the probability of dehydration and breakage. When going outside, wear gloves and make weekly heating oil bath for nails. To do this, heat a little some olive oil and dip in for five-minutes your fingers,  then wipe them with clapping movements. 

5. Means that accelerate nail growth, promise a rapid increase in their length. Such means are different, they contain ingredients that should accelerate growth and increase the length of the nails. Some tools promise to increase nails' growth by 30%, and they usually contain a mixture of proteins, minerals and vitamins. 

How To Prevent The Nails From Damage

To avoid the nails' breaking and damage, we should treat them more carefully. For example, not to use nails as screwdrivers, scraper or other instruments. After all, what for these tools were invented?! When working in the kitchen, be as careful as possible in contact with the trowel, a knife, cutlery and other devices that can scratch or otherwise traumatize the nail tissue.

If possible, put on rubber gloves to protect hands from the negative effects of chemicals and water. For example, if you're processing furniture stain, use special gloves, designed for that purpose. If no suitable gloves can be found, use a good cream for hands and nails before beginning to work. It will help you prevent the nails' stratifying, becoming brittle and fragile.

You may have already noticed that the cracks and brittleness are formed on the same partes of the nail, while some nails more frequently "suffer" than the other. I have, for example, usually defects on the right side of big finger nails. If you find such sites at your nails, pay special attention during a manicure, eliminating the slightest texture and covering the vulnerable places a protective wax layer of ointment. For even better protection, use a small amount of vaseline or other nutritious ointment to cover the bottom of the toe nails. This is especially important if your nails were outside edge of the fingers. The nails' tips is the oldest one, dry areas, wich trend to break and stratify, so they require additional protection.

Caring After Artificial Nails

After artificial lengthening, the nails require a careful care. First, of course, you need to get used to manipulate ordinary things with them: fasten buttons, open machines' doors, click on the keys on the keyboard, etc. Avoid strikes - they can damage your fingernails, perform all the household work in rubber gloves. Also It is good to have in the purse the glue for nails - the generated for some reason crack can always be sticked up, saving the fingernail till correction.
