I’ve suffered with short, chippy, breaky fingernails. For many years in fact. I’ve tried glue-on nails and acrylics for while but i kinda got sick of the hassle of fakes. But i think i’ve found my own solution.
I started taking fish oil supplements because a friend said they’d make me brainy. and at the same time the lady who did my acrylics got me to buy an OPI nail oil for my cuticles.
Now i can’t say i noticed an ignition of my cognition, but i did notice my nails grow much better AND i don’t have dandruff any more!! I’ve had longer, harder nails since a few weeks after taking the supplements and applying the oil. and when i forgot to take the fish oil on holiday over xmas, they started breaking and chipping again and my dandruff came back. They’re both good now after getting back into regularly taking my tablets.
So that’s my tip for nails - maybe it’ll work for you…
(PS i do feel kinda bad about the poor fish that died for my fish oil. is it really unethical do you think??)
