What's the best way to strengthen my finger nails?

They get brittle then chip and split.What's the best way to strengthen my finger nails?
Always moisturize your hands after washing, and try to avoid hash soaps.





Use plenty of cuticle oil daily and you should really notice an improvement. The best nail and cuticle oil will contain Jojoba oil and Vitamin E as two of the main ingredients.





Nail polish contains solvent that allow it to dry and give nails it's inherrant 'shine' and toughness. These same solvents can be very drying to nails, and can actually contribute to the problem.





Also avoid having your hands in water for long periods of time (so use gloves when doing the dishes).





I've also heard very nice things about Nailtique, so you should also benefit from that too.





If you can get past the strong garlic odor, it's definitely worth using garlic oil... you could get from the Vitamin World store... It comes in a capsule form, like Vitamin E does, so the capsule has to be broken... I use it about 3 times a week. Just break open about 4 capsules, massage into nail and cuticle and put in a pair of latex gloves for about 20-30 min. just wash hands with soap and water, the smell does wash away.... hope you have as much luck with this as I have had





Good LuckWhat's the best way to strengthen my finger nails?

Mine used to break and chip all the time, but there's this nail polish, NailTek... it's a base coat and top coat that you use when you paint your nails. It's amazing. A little pricey but it's totally worth it. I don't know about all the ';jello'; stuff, but I love this stuff... all my friends swear by it.
jello makes your nails grow faster not stronger get hard as nails its just a clear nail color it can be any nail strengthner and keep them short opi makes a really good nail treatment too
Knox geletin
Eat more jello, %26amp; use less chemicals on them.
I have the same problem. You need to use a buffer and file the tops and I use cuticle oil so they don't look so dry. If you use a nailpolish use one with strength formula perfirbly sally hansen...and manicures arent that great for them either, it will leave ur nails a yellow tint. Also, your diet plays a role in ur nails 2! omega 3s like fish and nuts are good for nails and will make them stronger and healthier.. as well as ur hair
i dont know about jello but i was told to use garlic my nails would get brittle then chip and split go to the store and buy some freah garlic pill it rub it on the tips of your nails try to stick you finger nail in the gaglic so it gets under the nail leave it on about 5 min and wash it off i did this about 7 times my nails are very strong now and grow very fast it works lol i looked at the person who told me this like they were crazy but it realy works
Jello
Knox gelatin........definitely great for nails.

You can try this. Rub slowly and carefully Lemon on your fingers and nail before going to bed. Lemon will work as a cleansing agent and also it will give vitamin C that is require for strong nails.
To strengthen your finger nails eat a fresh carrot twice a day after one week you can see a difference in your nails.It's promise.
