Rec for nail growth

[semtexgirl]

Anyone have a recommendation for a nail growth product? I have QTICA Natural Nail Growth Stimulator but wondering what everyone else uses if you break a nail and are really impatient (like me) while waiting for it to grow out again. I won't put a tip on for an instafix b/c they do more damage than good in the long run.

GNC Hair, Skin, Nail pills or Biotin. and Sally Hansen's miracle growth in the gold bottle.

I personally like nailtiques, combined with regular manicures nails will grow stronger and longer

My manicurist also put a tiny piece of silk on the broken nail. It's looks great and lets your nail grow out nicely. I use Mystic Nail as a top and base coat. Keeps my nails strong.

Hehe, mine does that too, but I ended up breaking the nail anyway while using a really crappy manual can opener.

That sucks.

Sometimes I just know I'm going to break a nail and I still continue doing whatever I should'nt be doing with my nails.

Appearex can be found at CVS and Walgreens. Each tablet has 2.5 mcg of biotin. I started taking two a day and my nails have never been this long or strong. It took about three months. My nails no longer peel or break on the sides.

I also use Creative Nail Supply Solar Oil daily. Just rub it into your cuticles and nail bed to keep everything hydrated

i use nioxin recharging complex. it is a dietary supplement that helps hair, skin and nails become healthy. your nails will grow like crazy. i have to cut my nails every week to keep them supershort. just an fyi, your hair (ALL your hair) grows like crazy too.

 

[kimmy]

biotin or any prenatal supplement.

totally agree. this is the best stuff that i've tried. it makes your nails so strong and healthy. i couldn't live without it.

My nails tend to peel at the tips. I like Total Nail Rx in the pink bottle (I found this at walgreens) because it keeps my nails from peeling and tearing.

 

[cdnaddict]

i have really weak nails that ALWAYS peeled as soon as any white showed up. SO aggravating! and to make matters worse i picked at them when they started to do that.

my MIRACLE nail product is definitely nailtiques formula 2. i bought it online at Essential Day Spa Skin Care decleor dermalogica obagi (out of BC). my friend, an aesthetician, recommended this to me. told me my nails would "grow like a b%&$@" haha. she was right! after nail envy, everything sally hansen, estee lauder, revlon, rimmel... this was the only product that worked for me!

I really love and constantly recommend people try butterlondon Horsepower Nail Fertilizer. They're based in the northwest U.S./UK but you can order online here You're out of his league : butter LONDON : Long Live Nails
I have never had any drugstore or higher end brand come close to keeping my nails strong and they grow so fast !! with this stuff; I have a history of weak nails b/c I am constantly washing my hands, plus I used to be a nail biter (eww! I know)... even the BF notices my "damn claws" as he calls them LOL, even though I keep them relatively short.

I like to use Nutra Nail 5-7 Day Nail Growth. This stuff works miracles for me. When I use it faithfully for 5-7 days I do get longer nails. However I do have to use a base coat that helps keep my nails strong and long which is either Nailtek's Intensive Therapy/Foundation II, or Barielle Nail Rebuilding Protein. I also faithfully put on cuticle oil.
