 To be honest, I had a moment when my nails would always break and would not grow at all. Then I found out that I simply had to consume more vitamins. But now I can even share with you a few tricks on how not only can your nails become stronger, but how they can grow faster as well!

There are many myths about making your nails grow faster – rubbing garlic over the, wiggling your fingers in the air for hours, dietary supplements. Nope. These methods will not work. Actually, I will tell you the truth, you cannot actually make your nails grow that fast. However, you can keep them healthy and strong and just by doing that they will appear longer. You can only fasten the process a little bit.

Firstly, you need to protect your nails. Next time you’re scrubbing in the kitchen, wear a pair of rubber gloves. The kitchen chemicals dry out your nails and make them easy to break. Another important fact is that nails grow faster in warm climates. When it’s cold outside make sure you wear gloves.

Secondly, take Biotin. No, this is not a dietary supplement! It might be part of some, but the Biotin is the Vitamin H and it helps the nails to stay healthy and also benefits the skin and eyes. It will not speed up the growing process, it just makes your nails less-breakable.

Thirdly, Vitamin E. It is recommended for the people who have a gel manicure. This kind of manicure damages the nails a lot and it is actually not a good idea to have it when your nails are weak, but the vitamin reprairs the nail underneath. If you do not use fake nails or gels, Vitamin E can help moisturize your nails and prevent them from breaking as well.

And last, but not least, treat your nails gently. Stop riping and biting your nails. We all know that this is actually a subconcious habit, but you can try your best to get rid of it. Wen you do that you don’t give the chance for your nails to grow. There are actually products in the drug stores that you can apply to your nails to prevent yourself from biting them if you cannot stop by yourself.
