I say fake is the way to go.. the longer the better hahahah !!
I like my nails longer than my hair.. that's just me. I do solar most of the time because they don't lift like acrylics when you swim everyday like I do but any fake nails can be made short too so that they don't get broken. Its all about preference f1~ |

Damn! What's next? Makeup?

I do solar most of the time because they don't lift like acrylics when you swim everyday like I do but any fake nails can be made short too so that they don't get broken. Its all about preference f1~[/QUOTI am just putting this out there, more as a FYI so please dont be offended. I hate to be a debbie downer....but please becareful with nail care especially if you have artificial nails...I know! I know! you are thinking, "but damn I look good!" And sweetie ya do! But especially in recent times with the rise of community acquired staph infections, artificial nails have been proven to harbour bacteria and can provide and easy route of transmission. Some of these staph infections have been know to put ppl into the hospital. I am a nurse and and for years they have shook a naughty finger at those of us who like to wear artificial nails...but in these recent years they are banned on those persons who have direct patient contact. So just some food for thought! Please take care of your nails rather they are artificial or not. For us natural nail gals...we arent free from insult...having chips in your nails or nail polish may also harbour these bacteria....just not quite as many places for the mto hide as with the artificial nails...Again not trying to offend...just providing some info..you can go to the CDC website if you would like more info.....

I won't credit the prenatals entirely with the change, though, because at the time I was experiencing the hair loss and breakage, I was in a very stressful home environment and, as I was taking the vitamins, I got myself OUT of that situation (which was the source of the majority of my stress and stress causes all kinds of health problems, including hair loss). You're right though. I have a right to green pee! I should write the company and ask if they make a fun, green pee-making vitamin. |

Neosporin works great on cuticles and cracks on hands.
I do get manicures maybe once a month, because pedicures help my feet hurt way less, and since I am there..... Sally Hansen makes good products, but OPI has the best in my opinion. I have really bad hangnails unless I have on at least one coat of polish, not sure why, but polish really helps. I think Sally Hansen makes one that is just natural and makes your nails look buffed, not sure the name. They also make great cuticle cream. I like a single coat of light finger nail polish with a top coat beacsue I work in an office and a dark color gets all over my papers and shows chips more quickly. Good luck! PS...for you worriers, yes I make sure my salons are accredited and have great safety scores.

The cream I mentioned before is great too - Glysomed. It's really thick, but not greasy and absorbs well.

Why, oh why, is the "nail me" thread so buried? This is a thread of utmost importance. I don't think it was mentioned -- but water, glugging glorious water, can do wonders for nails. Also Biotin. Gemme's right that prenatal vitamins are great for the nails -- enough nutrients for mommy and baby, what more can a girl ask for?

I love the solar look but have used Fiberglass and Silk. My nails are long and I keep an overlay on them to protect them. I'm in the salon a minimum of 4 times a month for mani/pedi's. I have recently tried MINX and think its something I would do on Holidays and probably only on my toes. |

I have 'gel nails', french manicured with brilliant white tips, medium long that I get 're-newed' every four weeks.
For soft hands: use some plain white sugar and add almond oil. Rub in, until sugar is dissolved and rinse. Leaves 'em really, really soft, gives your nails a nice shine and is great for cuticles too! Kat
