By  | 

Nails speak volumes of one’s hygiene. But it goes beyond just hygiene, you need to keep them strong and healthy. They won’t break easily and will look beautiful even without a proper manicure or pedicure. So, would you like to have beautiful, strong and healthy nails? Below are 8 tips that can help?

v INVEST IN A GOOD NAIL KIT.

This is the beginning of amazing nails because you will have all the tools you need. Use the nail cutter to cut your nails into a U shape. After cutting them, use a filer to shape them well and get rid of any rough edges. Please don’t bite your nails as it’s neither healthy for you nor your nails.

v KEEP YOUR HANDS AND FEET DRY.

Always make sure that your hands and feet are dry so that you keep away any form of bacteria that might grow in your nails . Avoid walking withe bare feet in public places as this will expose your nails to dirt and dust.

v KEEP YOUR NAILS SHORT.

Keep your nails short all the time because long nails are inappropriate and hard to maintain. It’s also easier to do your chores with short nails.

v GO EASY ON THE NAIL POLISH

Well-polished nails are very beautiful and cool to both the owner and the on lookers but it does a lot of damage to your nails. This is because those nail polishes contain acetone, which makes your nails soft. Don’t manicure your nails more often than once a week and buy only high quality nail polishes. If your nail polish has passed its expiration date, throw it right away.

v POLISH REMOVER.

When getting rid of nail polish, use oil based removers so that you leave your nails in a good state. Scratching off polish damages your nails as it leaves them weak hence leaving them vulnerable to breakage.

v NAIL CREAM.

Your hand lotion is sometimes not enough to do justice to your nails. Therefore, get yourself nail cream from any pharmacy. These nails creams are not expensive.

v WEAR THE APPROPRIATE SHOE SIZE.

Wearing shoes that are so tight exerts a lot of pressure on your nails causing blood clots which can lead to them falling out. Always wear shoes that are your perfect size.

v GIVE BIOTIN A TRY.

Biotin is a supplement that will help you if you have weak or brittle nails and is reported to not have side effects. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist as they will guide you on how to take this.
