Restoring Weak Nails


I spend the summers experimenting with some of the most fabulous nail art that the salons have to offer. This may sound foreign to some, but many of you out there are familiar with the nail salon techniques for no fade and no chip color and design. Unfortunately, these flawless looks come with a price. When you abandon the wraps, the gels and the tips, your nails are often left weak, thin, split, lifeless and discolored. I use the fall to create a restorative regimen that will keep nails, nourished throughout the winter months. The most important nail product on the market is the “old trusty,” Sally Hansen Maximum Growth. For a few bucks and a 5 minute daily commitment, you will see your own nails grow and maintain their strength for months to come. File and shape your nails and apply one coat of this clear liquid silk protein daily. At the end of each week, use nail polish remover to take off the coating and begin the process again. Apply this regimen until the bottle is empty and I am positive that you will be happy with the results.
