Ways to get Healthy Nails at Home


Nail experts recommend using a mixture of almond and avocado oil to moisturize the cuticles of your nails, this is a nutritious oil moisturizer.    


Regular hand washing with hand sanitizer dries out the skin around the nail bed, so try to moisturize as much as possible before washing. When you wash your hands, make sure that the nails are free of dirt, remove traces of polish-free remover and do not dry the nails. Use lotion after polish removal on your nails or use a hand cream on your hands if you think you are not hydrated enough, to make sure everything around your nails is hydrated.    


To prevent dry skin, moisten your hands and nails during the winter months by applying lotion after washing your hands. Do not stop washing your hands or shower with gloves, but consider how to reduce the time your nails spend in water, as excessive water contact weakens the nail structure. Things like using cotton-lined gloves can be annoying, but keeping the nails out of the water for most soaked swimmers will minimize setbacks. If that's not possible, the next best thing is to moisturize your hands (and nails) after the dunk.    


Moisten your nails and surrounding skin with hand creams to prevent further damage to the integrity of your nails, says dermatologists. Take caution with the products used: Many nail polish treatments contain hard chemicals that can weaken the nails.    


Avoid using acetone paint remover because it dries out and weakens the nails. If there is a nail polish remover that contains acetone, avoid it because it can damage the nails. Rub lotion or oil into your hands and make sure you work it into the cuticles of your nails. You can also wear cotton gloves and soak the mixture overnight for a natural nail treatment. Acrylic nails can be soaked overnight using the same procedure, but should be soaked for at least 45 minutes.    


After removal, give the nails a break for at least a week from nail polish and moisturize them with thick emollient creams such as petroleum jelly or aquaphor. A cosmetic dermatologist, recommends moisturizing cuticle creams and cuticle oils to protect and strengthen your nails.    


Household chemicals can weaken and dye nails if used consistently. Cleaning dishes with hot or soapy water or browning with gloves weakens the nails, and fastening nails in the dirt of gardening requires a degree of cleaning that you want to avoid as much as possible. Cleaning with chemicals or washing dishes by hand can also weaken the nails.    


Acetone, which people use to remove gels from nails, weakens nails, gels and polishes, making them appear less strong and less healthy. Biotin-rich foods can help strengthen brittle nails, says nutritionists. The consumption of food with biotin reduces brittleness and selenium prevents the brightening of the nail bed.    


These are important minerals that can help your nails grow faster and are stronger and less prone to breakage and exfoliation. Biotins strengthen brittle nails and prevent them from breaking but there is little evidence that biotin supplements help the nails to grow longer.    


A balanced diet with fruits, vegetables, nuts and protein-rich foods such as eggs, almonds, yogurt, cheese and buttermilk is beneficial to your nails. It is important to eat the right protein amount for your overall health and your diet as it affects your nails and the speed they grow.    


A diet rich in vitamins, iron, zinc, calcium and protein (nails contain protein and creatine) is beneficial for healthy nails. Dietary supplements that follow these nutrients in food can also improve nail health. Special nail polishes such as gels and powders can also improve nail health.    


Experts recommend taking a manicurist or pediatrician your own nail scissors and other tools to prevent infections and other problems. This is better because one is not exposed to bacteria and other bad things that can remain when tools are used on the hands and feet of other races.    


While it can be fun to do your own manicure and pedicure at home, you might want to ask an adult for help. The care of your nails is important, so leave them alone.    


Don't be surprised if your doctor takes a look at your nails at your next exam if you have problems with your nails. For example, if the doctor presses your nails, he or she can control your blood flow. When you look at your nail, the doctor may notice changes that are related to skin problems, lung disease, anemia, or other conditions.    


Strong, healthy nails are an indicator of good health, but sometimes our nails are not as strong as we would like them to be. The good news is that we can change our lifestyles to strengthen nails to get them as long as we want. With proper care, maintenance and training, you can be on your way to longer, healthier nails, and it doesn't have to take too long.    


The first step is proper maintenance of the strength and growth of your nails, but care of your cuticles is equally important if not more so. Without knowing how long your nails will have to endure and grow, they will suffer the inevitable painful breaks when you try to wash the dishes.
