Get Beautiful Nails

Hi-

My nails curl and tear and I was wondering why this is.  Any ideas on how to get this to stop?

Thanks!

Hi Amy

When my nails get too long the sides curl inwards...I believe the reason has something to do with the nail bed but I 'm not 100%.

For me the only thing I can do is keep them a little shorter which also helps with the breakage so I guess its a win win situation.

Hi Amy and Welcome! My nails curl too and I don't know the reason but my guess would be either genetics or age. When we age our nails change. As far as tearing nails that's a result of dry nails. Here are a few tips for healthy nails:

* Drink a lot of water. Keep your body hydrated everyday to maintain healthy nails;

* Fortify your diet with FDA approved vitamins or supplements. Your fingernails count on you to be responsible with your health and your diet. Unless instructed otherwise by your physician, increase your daily doses of Vitamin A, Vitamin C, calcium, folic acid, protein, Vitamin B12, and zinc;

* Touch up your manicure on a daily basis to prevent chips and cracks.

* Your nails depend on you to maintain a healthy diet. Take in a lot of healthy foods.

I hope this helped ;-)
