Great tips Emily! I find my nails grow very fast and have always been rock hard. They are currently 1 cm long. I put this down to the following:
1. I never file them, just cut them straight across and snip any sharp corners.
2. I take MSM daily - they have grown like buggery ever since doing this.
3. I take biotin supplement daily - this has helped straighten out any irregularities in the nail bed.
4. I eat LOTS of jelly - the doctor prescribed gelatine in my diet several years ago for reducing brittle nails - it works so I make a tub of jelly every few days and have it for dessert each day.
5. I use whitening toothpaste to clean them with a toothbrush.
6. I massage the hands, nail and cuticle with vitamin e oil and get the circulation going to the nail bed.
