What's the best nail strengthener for weak, brittle and chipping nails?

Sally Hansen Hard as Nails.What's the best nail strengthener for weak, brittle and chipping nails?
I used to have the same problem. Then a girl I worked with told me her secret...she eats a bowl of Jell-o every day. The gelatin helps to strengthen your nails and is good for your hair too. If you cant stand to eat the stuff, then get some gelatin capsules from any health food store.





This worked for me, and now, I have awesome nails.....look like they have been professionally done up.





Good luck!What's the best nail strengthener for weak, brittle and chipping nails?

  • Can I place a coat of nail strengthener with protein over nail polish?

    I just had my acrylics taken off. I am using sally hansen salon nail care protein nail strengthener along with lots of cuticle and nail oil, as well as lotion.





    I painted over the protein nail strengthener yesterday, and I need to apply a new coat today. can it go over the polish, or do I need to remove the pink polish and start over? Can I place a coat of nail strengthener with protein over nail polish?
    Take off the color then paint on the nail strengthener, because it needs to be directly on your nails not on top of color. After you do that then paint them again. =] Can I place a coat of nail strengthener with protein over nail polish?
    Im pretty sure the nail strengthener needs to be actually on your nails, best to take the colour off, apply the strengthnener and then once it drys u can apply the colour again!..
    Yea im pretty sure you can. I dont think it will be as effective that way. I would put it on before you paint your nails a color.

    Is there a nail strengthener you've used that really works?

    I have very weak nails that always crack and tear so I am unable to grow them long. I'd like to find a nail strengthening product that really works. Thanks!Is there a nail strengthener you've used that really works?
    yes!!! i've been using sally hanson's nail strengthener and grow. It works great! it edven comes in a tiny pink tint to make it look more natural =]





    good luck1Is there a nail strengthener you've used that really works?
    I have worn acrylics for Years and finally decided to take them off. Having the fake nails make your real nails very weak and brittle. I use Qutica Nail strenghter. It is an product that is made with no harsh chemicals and will be good to your body unlike some other products. I buy mine a the local salon. Just search the brand and there will be a store locator. to find one near you.

    Nails-mine crack easily-especially in the winter. What's a good strengthener and/or polish? Other suggestions?

    Drink milk and use Sally Hansen's ';Hard as Nails'; or ';Be-Long.'; These work really well if you aply a couple of coats. You can wear it alone as a shear or as a base coat under another color. Also, moisturize your hands and cuticals regularly.





    Aso, if the ends of your nails are brittle and cracking or peeling, cut them off so it does not continue to crack the rest of the nail. This will keep them looking healthy.Nails-mine crack easily-especially in the winter. What's a good strengthener and/or polish? Other suggestions?
    my nails used to do the same. Nail polish is not your answer to your problem but an intense protein cream is. The product i use that is incredible is Healthy Hoof an intense protein cream. you just rub the cream into your nails everyday. i know you can find it at folica.com. it the best you really need to give it a try. this cream strengthens your nails the best.Nails-mine crack easily-especially in the winter.

    What are good nail strengtheners? (pictures please)?

    My nails are always splitting no matter what i do. Now i know not to file back and fourth( it's corner to center) and all that, but my nails have never grown past my finger tip with me having acrylics on them. I don't bite. But i would just like to have strong nails. I used rejuvecoat and it just peeled right off( nail polish always peels of by night or next day) I work in a salon And my hands are in water alot now so my nails are just really bad now. Any suggestions? If you have photos please provide some I would really love to see the results. Thanks for the help:-)What are good nail strengtheners? (pictures please)?
    I use Nailtiques. My nails used to flake and peel and split, too, but when I use this stuff, they get SUPER thick and strong. It's expensive, but it works like NOTHING else. I know that Walgreen's sells it and you can also buy it at most beauty stores. I'm not sure how to upload a photo here, but trust me, it's the best. It goes on (and looks like) a clear polish, you just have to make sure that you ALWAYS keep a coat of it on your nails. You can apply a fresh coat as often as once a day (on top of the previous coat.) When you get 3 - 4 coats on (after a few days or about a week,) then you can remove it and start over with a fresh coat. You can leave your nails like that (with a natural, clear polish look,) or you can use it as a base coat and then add colored polish on top. Seriously, it's like $15 - $17 per bottle, but it REALLY works and is WAY cheaper than acrylics. As long as you keep a coat of it on your nails, they will grow and not split. I brush a little on the edges of the tips, too. My nails grow so long that I have to actually cut them with a clipper. I have to take so much off ('cause they grow so much) that it would take me FOREVER to file off the excess.

    Nail Strengtheners?

    Anyone know any good nail strengtheners? i've heard that sally hansen's aren't that good, but has anyone had any luck?

    Sally Hansen has amazing products for weak nails and they are very cheap. if you want to go on the more expensive side, Nailtique works so well and is worth every penny.

    Do the ';nail-polish-like'; nail strengtheners really work?

    I think they do make a difference, but really only while you are wearing them. I have only tried the ones that are just like clear nail polish, and they look really nice, they give your nails a shine that looks wonderful. I would definitly recommend trying them, even if it is just for the look.


    Thanks for asking, good luck!Do the ';nail-polish-like'; nail strengtheners really work?
    A little bit.

    Nail polish/ top coat/ strengthener Questions?

    I have just recently stopped chewing my nails and have been over painting them so they're pretty dry. What is the difference between putting a regular top coat, regular nail polish and a strengthening coat.





    Also, I was wondering if those coats that claim to make your nails grow faster actually work.





    What are the negative effects of using a 7 sided nail buffer stick. Does it make them weak?





    How do you keep the tips clean? The underside of my nails are really dirty and I've never run across this problem since my nails have never been this long.





    How often is it healthy to paint my nails? I don't want to over dry them.





    How unhealthy is nail polish remover?





    THANKS! I know that's a lot but I just have all these questions. :] You can answer as many or little as you'd like. Incite and examples are welcomed.Nail polish/ top coat/ strengthener Questions?
    WOW!





    lostsa questions.





    first Q:


    a top-coat is usually a clear, polish-like substance that you are supposed to put over your normal coat of nail polish after it dries.


    regular nail polish is just, well, regular nail polish. the more coats, the darker, but i advise against more than two coats. three could work, but that's a bit risky. then, if you put more than two, sometimes it wont even dry completely no matter how long you fan them.


    a strengthening coat is the exact same as a top-coat, except for it sounds more intriguing because it sounds like it would protect your nails from damage better. it doesn't.





    second Q:


    no, those advertisements are completely false. no nail polish or coats make your nails grow faster. the only reason why it may seem that way is because when you put your nail polish on, your nails may be shorter because you just trimmed them. then, a week later when you remove the nail polish, your nails have naturally grown at their same pace, it's just you notice it more.





    third Q:


    yes, it does weaken your nails, but it really depends. honestly, it's obvious that it would weaken your nails even a little, because every single side brushes or scrapes away SOME part of the nail. for example, the buffer takes off a very thin layer of nail on top to make the nail shiny. but really, as long as you're not using it more than twice a week, it will make no difference whatsoever.





    fourth Q:


    buy a nail-clipper at CVS or something. it's not only a nail clipper, but it also has a little, tiny knife-looking object that you can swing forward, and it scrapes underneath your nails without hurting you, because it's hardly sharper than a butter knife. if you can't find a nail-clipper (i cant see why not, ask your mom or something) then any sturdy, thin object will serve its purpose for scraping under your nails.





    fifth Q:


    it is healthy to paint your nails every other week. i would suggest painting them one sunday, keeping it on for a week, and then removing it the next, and go without nail polish for a week, and so on... as long as you wash your hands regularly (with soap!) and use some kind of hand lotion, then you're good to go with the dryness problem. but it's still good to give your nails a break.





    sixth Q:


    nail polish remover is perfectly healthy. mostly it's just rubbing alcohol with some other harmless fluids mixed in.





    i hope my info was valuable to you! :)

    I have 2 clear bottles of nail polish, 1 says base coat & 1 says strengthener, whats the difference?

    while they're both clear in color...





    ...the base coat will have chemicals to help your polish color stick to your nails better and prevent peeling. some base coats also fill in nail ridges, prevent staining, and improve polish application.





    ...the strengthener will contain ingredients to improve nail condition, add thickness and support, and boost healthy growth.





    some base coats have strengtheners built in, and some strengtheners can be used as a base coat. however, don't count on this unless the label says so. i once used a wet 'n wild nail strengthener that would immediately peel off once i washed my hands. if i had used this as a base coat, my nail color would have peeled off within hours.

    What are some of the best nail strengtheners?

    Nailtiques No 2 solution is amazing. My nails used to flake off all the time and broke a lot. I used this product for a few months and my nails are beautiful. They grow long and rarely break or flake anymore, and I used to be able to literally peel layers off of them. This is really the best thing to use, I promise.

    Hey there, i have almost the same set.





    You put on the Strengthener, almost like a base coat. Then you put on your nail polish or manicure white line. Then you put on the top coat. The Quick Dry is only so your nails dry faster. It helps prevent you messing your nails up by them not being dry before you start to do things. It doenst work instantly, but makes them dry twice as fast, usually. But you dont have to use it... I DO, but you dont have to haha





    Have fun with your new kit.

    Hard as Nails by Sally Hansen. It's like a coat of primer over your nails. Watch out when it starts to peel though because it can peel off a thin layer of your nail with it so be sure not to pick when it chips and just remove with remover and reapply. It's very thick and protecting for disher.
    honestly cheap and works.

    QVC.......

    I'm still trying to grow my nails.....Ive tried stop bite,nail strengthener,nail moisturiser....I?

    Any suggestionsI'm still trying to grow my nails.....Ive tried stop bite,nail strengthener,nail moisturiser....I?
    I used to bite my nails, and they would peel etc just like you described. To stop biting them, the best thing I found was to carry a nail file with me, and make sure there were never any rough edges - that's what tempts you to pick and bite them. I still had the habit of putting them in my mouth for a while, but they are a lot harder to bite when they have smooth edges.





    To make them grow stronger, moisturize them regularly - rub lots in at night before bed, and I like to moisturise after washing in the daytime too. This is good for 2 reasons - obviously because it moisturises them, but also because it's not nice getting moisturiser in your mouth!





    Check your diet too, make sure that you have plenty of calcium and healthy fats in your diet Any improvements in your diet won't show in your nails for a couple of months until the weaker nail has grown out.I'm still trying to grow my nails.....Ive tried stop bite,nail strengthener,nail moisturiser....I?
    put mustard on them!
    It would be cleaner to lick a toilet seat (fact).
    I always bit my nails until I had them done in a nail bar and let them grow underneath, then when nails came off i used polish to strengthen them.
    I found the trick, I am 37 and have always bitten my nails, and tried to stop for years, tried everything. THEN I started eating healthy, 5 vegetables or fruits a day and 2 dairy products and my nails skyrocketed! NICE THICK BEAUTIFUL NAILS! My husband couldn't believe it. It is definitely about how well you eat.
    put your nails,,like you dig them in GARLIC. they make your nails strong
    Biting nails is one of those habbits where you mostly dont even realise you are doing it. I bit mine for 15 years at least and then somehow stopped. I forced myself to sit on my hands while watching scary movies so I couldnt bite, or I had a lollipop to occupy myself. You need something in your hands for the times you bite unconciously. Otherwise its just like giving up any old habbit. Willpower. As soon as you grown them a little go and have a manicure done, you will appreciate how nice your nails look when you got them.





    Oh and dont get false nails done as they will weaken your natural nails and it will take even longer to try and grow them.





    Good luck!
    If you are biting them then stop.


    If not try wearing nail polish all the time. It protects the nails from the elements.


    Mine get so long I have to cut them.
    i had really bad nails


    i got some stuff called naioid


    it pink and sort of clear stuff


    you can get it in the hight street


    its not the most expencive but its aound 4 pounds


    if you use it daily your nais wil go harder and grow realy well


    it also tastes nasty if you try to bite your nails as it is made with formudihite or wat ever it is that they use to preserve bodys


    dont let that put you off the stuff is great and you will have loverly nais in a month or two


    hope that helps ve nicky.x.
    someone told me once that eating a cube of undissolved jelly a day helps strengthen them - i think it's the glycerene in it that does the job!
    i use tablets, there only 6euro for a months supply. you can find them in any health/herbal shop usually they really work. theyre usually called skin hair and nails!





    they contain vitamin D which makes your nails stronger and longer! :)
    i myslef am a nail bitter and i just go get them done at the nail shop, and let them grow out then afterwards when they take the nails off i use nail strengther and then i paint them but if i don't paint them i will bite them.
    Get a 4 sided nail buffer like this :http://img.alibaba.com/photo/11072122/4_鈥?/a>





    my nails used to peel and wouldnt grow, so I used a nail buffer and it strengthened my nails and made them really shiny!!
    Use false nails but buy the protective cream for your natural nails first and once these are on they look so pretty you wont want to bite them! Don't taste half as good as your own neway!! lol Works for me!!
    I have a very hard time growing my nails because I bite them all the time...BUT for some reason whenever I wear nail polish..(color) I stop bitting them and they don't break as much..try that....
    Just let them grow!!! Trim them so they look even. Go get a manicure to make them look healthyer!

    Nail strengthener just makes nails stronger. And polish bubbles because of the nail polish not because of how many coats. Don't shake it, roll it between your hands.

    Do you mean Nailtique? I believe Ulta and nail salons sell this brand. Alsy try ebay as someone suggested here.
    Dont get it. Buy OPI Nail Envy in original. It's good - excellent in fact - I have such long strong nails since using that. Put a coat on every other day and remove it all and start again after a week. Given a month or so, your nails will be strong.

    This stuff by Sally Hanson,I think..





    My grandmother uses it and her nails are so long and pretty. They also strengthen your nails and makes them stronger and thicker. Try it!!





    You can get it from Walmart and Target.


    Go the nail section and its in this metallic silver bottle..
    i have this tuff called nail life i got it at sallys it works really good all you do is put it on once a day then after seven days you remove it with nail polish remover and then simply repeat it it worls very good.
    I have the same problem (my nails are really brittle), and I was recommended protein pills - they're a natural remedy that you can find at any drugstore, and although I have yet to try them, I've heard that they quickly strengthen nails (and make your hair shiny).





    They can be found at any pharmacy or drugstore - just all-natural protein pills.

    I need some good nail strengthener, my nails keep breaking, any suggestions?

    Eat a cube of jelly everyday! Any flavour, works a treat. Its because the jelly has gelatine in it and it helps to strengthen your nails. Tried and tested - it works!I need some good nail strengthener, my nails keep breaking, any suggestions?
    Sally Hansen's nail strengthener polishes are good although from experience I prefer Nails Inc protein treatment. A beauty therapist once said to me ';Treat your nails as jewels, not tools';. That is such good advice. I use my nails for alsorts... and then wonder why they break!!I need some good nail strengthener, my nails keep breaking, any suggestions?
    Try Sally Hanson's products. I use them and they really do work and they are reasonably priced.
    Calcium and magnesium tablets and pint the tips of your nails with clear polish.
    OPI's nail envy. no contest.
    Start by going to get a manicure, they can then advise you on really good products to strengthen your nails as there are many products available. A good cuticle cream is always advised as this helps to keep the nail nourished from when it starts to grow.


    But a manicure is defiantly the way forward to stronger nails.
    fill an old nail polish jar with olive oil, use it twice a day, let it dry for a few secs, they will strenghten in a week!...There is also specially formulated nail polish for this, look for them at a pharmacy, God bless you!
    The Sally Hansen nail product line, as mentioned, is really good. Use the strengthener, the polish (polish helps stengthen nails), and i use the oil (lots of times nails break because they are dried out). Personally i take some fiber (the chewable tablets) every day, and i have noticed a huge difference in nail strength since i started. And of course calcium helps as well. It is about protecting your nails and having the proper nutrients in your body to keep them healthy. Even then... you can't fight the genes you carry that influence nail strength and growth.
    try eating one cube of a block of jelly every day, sounds silly, but it worked for me!
    OPI products are excellent. As for the jelly cube suggestion the gelatine is made from pigs guts, enjoy!
    Ronseal tough as nails varnish....'; Does exactly what it says on the tin '; according to some slightly dim looking guy on the telly.
    My mom used to have that problem. She used this nail polish nail strengthener polish. It worked! This one had beads in the top part. She bought it from Wal Greens. If that doesn't help go to a local Nail Salon and ask them what is best around your area.
    Try Mavala Scientifique. It's a Swiss product that has been on the market for years. It bonds the different nail layers together, so you apply is once a week. This is so that the nail that must still grow out is properly bonded and not break. It really works!

    hard as nails by sallie henson
    its kinda nasty but u can use garlic to rub on ur nails..and let it stay for 5 mins then wash them off..my friend told me about and i used this method it works out but garlic smell cant help it!!


    or avoid nail breakage - Wear nail polish on longer nails frequently, either coloured or clear, to re-enforce the nail
    See your doctor, there are some illnesses connected with weak nails such as Psoriatic arthritis. They should run some tests and hopefully give you the 'all clear'.
    calcium pills will work
    OPI Nail Envy, the best ever. Some nail salons sell it so do QVC at www.qvcuk.com. Its abou t拢18.00 a bottle but a 'must have'.
    Hi I had the same problem a few months ago and I recommend the Sally Hansen range from boots, about 拢5 - 拢8 / bottle and it lasts ages. The nailgrowth miracle is good to start you off and then move on to the silver bottle nail strengthener it really is good. BUT you must use it regularly and I eat lots of cashew nuts with pumpkin seeds - sounds weird but it works!

    Is it ok to use revitanail nail strengthener as base coat and top coat?

    if i put one layer of reviatanail nail strenghtener, a couple layers of coloured nail polish and another layer of reviatanail nail strengthener on top of that as top coat, will it still harden my nails as much? like... will it lose the hardening effect or...? im not sure..Is it ok to use revitanail nail strengthener as base coat and top coat?
    It should be fine, I use a nail strenghener from avon and always put it on as a base coat because I wear a lot of dark coloured nail polish it stops it from leeching into your nails too, I haven't used it as a top coat before, but it shouldn't be a problem :)Is it ok to use revitanail nail strengthener as base coat and top coat?
    i find that it helps!

  • Is it okay to use nail strengthener as a top coat?

    i bought clear coat today and i thought it was top coat, but its actually a strengthener...so is it okay to use it as a top coat? or possibly a base coat?


    thanks :)Is it okay to use nail strengthener as a top coat?
    There is no problem with using nail strengthener instead of a top coat. It is actually better for your nails because they use natural ingredients so it strengths your nails (Hence the name). So, use the nail strengthener with no worries. It'll do wonders for your nails. And it'll give you that glossy, shiny look that most people beg for!Is it okay to use nail strengthener as a top coat?
    No that's not ok. Your nails will become damaged beyond repair and possibly break off.

    Why do my nails and fingertips burn after applying nail strengthener?

    i just had my acrylics removed professionally they're very thin so i applied some nail polish and my nails started burning i had to remove the polish right away. will this go away? and why did it hurt?Why do my nails and fingertips burn after applying nail strengthener?
    after wearing artificial nails for a while,the nail bed sometime can be very weak and thin.it is best to just oil the nail bed for a while and not put any nail polish on. also the nail being so thin can become sensitive to formaldehyde.which is found in most nail productWhy do my nails and fingertips burn after applying nail strengthener?

    The above answer is correct. Sally Hansen hard as nais products are the best. I think that you used to only be able to get them at a salon until the company went bigger... Now you can get them at any retailer out there. They are the best.

    Whats a good nail strengthener to use?

    My nails grow very long but soft-what can I use to strengthen them and stop them from breaking off?Whats a good nail strengthener to use?
    i take a vitamin every day, plus some other supplements. my nails are pretty stong. your nail grows behind the cuticle. that's where its strength is determined, not beyond your fingertip. maybe try some supplements like glucosamine/chondroitan? it'll take about 2+ months before the new nail growth is in your fingernail area. good luck.Whats a good nail strengthener to use?
    A combination of Vitamin A and D is required for good growth vision and healthy HAIR AND Nails





    The best source will be COD LIVER OIL which is good also for maintaining resistance to infections such as colds and coughs (sold commercially in Capsules form) or u can just eat food which contain them


    U will need also calcium which also needs vitamin D to be absorbed





    Bottom line u can use milk ,cheese ,spanish and fish to have them all...





    it takes time for ur nail to be healthy (this is the long term treatment) so u can use now any nail cover available in the market (please not that saturated red)
    Well Shari I tell you the eastern way of it.


    Use Garlic on your nails regularly snd you will notice the change qiute surely and a +ve change.
    It starts with nutrition first like the others said.





    But otherwise...the Malava or Mavala - can never remember - products from Switzerland are truly marvelous. Can only get them online now because they had no other competition so the stores lost money. No I don't work for them.


    It used to be widely available but companies got pissed off;so it was pulled off and replaced with inferior products.
    i use O.P.I ';start to finish'; - base and top coat, its fantastic it really hardens your nails and makes them strong, also eat lots of leafy green veggies and lots of food with calcium in.
    My sister used to eat Knox Gelatin daily and take Iron Pills. I don't know if it was just the gelatin or the combo of both but her nails were very strong, not brittle or thin at all.

    Any suggestions on a nail strengthener?

    My nails are almost at a good length but are kinda thin. Any suggestions on a product that will, I guess can be a protective shell? Also, any products that promote nail growth?Any suggestions on a nail strengthener?
    i have tried many OTC nail strengtheners and have been disappointed when they once again split on the side and i have to rip it the rest of the way off. i have found what works for me is putting a layer of acrylic on them. like they do in the nail salons, only with out the fake tips they put on em. you can buy a filler kit at walmart and do it your self, it takes 1 or 2 trial runs to get the liquid powder mix just right so you'll wanna buy a bottle of acetone to remove it. and make sure you wash your hands before you do it, and watch your nails for any lifting of the acrylic off of your nail. but NOTHING WORKS BETTER TO PROTECT YOUR NAILS AGAINST SPLITTING!Any suggestions on a nail strengthener?
    anything from sally hansen is worth the money.

    Can anyone recommend a good nail strengthener?

    I am in the water a lot, surfing, swimming, etc. And my nails tend to get brittle. Does anyone know of a good brand that really works?Can anyone recommend a good nail strengthener?
    Pinnacle makes a good nail hardener called Tough. You can only get it through salons though. Don't be seduced by Sally Hansen which is junk. Another thing you can do to grow hard as iron nails is to take horsetail silica which you can get from General Nutrition Centers. No it's not made from horses tails...horsetail is a type of reed. Also, soft nails from water is usually caused from dryed out cuticles, so every night before bed put some nail oil on those cutes and make sure to use plenty of lotion too.Can anyone recommend a good nail strengthener?
