How to make your nails grow faster?
There is no secret to having beautiful, long nails; you have to protect them well and take care of them regularly.
Indeed, certain health problems and daily life factors can weaken nails such as water, nutritional deficiencies, chemicals, hormonal imbalances or even stress.
It is important to know that nail growth is more or less rapid depending on their state of health and their maintenance. Thus, weakened nails always tend to break and therefore give the impression of never growing.
Unlike hair, which grows in three cycles , nail growth is permanent. However, it is less rapid: on average 3 to 4 mm per month for a fingernail and 1.5 mm per month for a toenail.
There are a few tips to follow to maintain and promote nail growth, without resorting to false nails.
Pamper your nails
Just like skin and hair, hydration is essential to maintain healthy nails . It is therefore necessary to treat them with a cream or balm rich in amino acids and plants with moisturizing and nourishing properties. In addition, a daily massage is beneficial to increase nail growth.
Cuticles must also be taken care of. These are small pieces of skin that take hold of the base of the nail and whose function is to protect it. Gently pushing them back with a suitable tool (steel cuticle pusher or an orange stick) allows you to gain a few millimeters.
Finally, to maintain beautiful nail length, you must obviously avoid biting your nails. In addition to making you lose length, this can cause infections and the development of germs, fungi, whitlows or mycosis.
Applying grandmother's natural recipes
To help your nails grow faster, there are some simple natural recipes that are accessible to everyone.
For example, a weekly oil bath is perfect for deeply nourishing and strengthening nails. Vegetable oils such as castor oil, argan oil or olive oil are ideal for making them grow faster. They can be mixed with a noble laurel essential oil to maximize growth.
It is also advisable to apply garlic juice to the cuticles, every evening for a week, to promote nail regrowth.
Take care of your diet
Whether it's for hair, skin or even nails , a healthy and balanced diet plays a vital role in overall appearance.
For faster nail growth, you should favor whole grains because they are rich in B vitamins.
Eggs, meats and fish are an excellent source of protein essential for nail structure.
Fruits and vegetables should be consumed at will because they contain vitamins and trace elements essential for strengthening the nail (vitamins A, C and E; iron, zinc , selenium, etc.).
Drinking water is also essential for the shine and vitality of the nail. Per day, it is recommended to drink between 1.5L and 2L to promote nail growth .
Take targeted food supplements for nail beauty
Sometimes, a good diet is not enough to cover certain nutritional deficiencies. Food supplements are then a solution to maintain healthy nails and hair.
These products should be taken as part of a healthy lifestyle.
