@rescreate: This is how it’s been my whole life. I used to bite my nails like crazy until a few years ago. I finally grow them out, and they’re so weak. They’re literally transparent in water 😩 #nails #weaknails #fingernails

Dragonfly187 :

I have had nails like yours my whole life. nothing worked until I got a bottle of OPI nail envy. its expensive but sooo worth it!! my nails have never been so strong and grown out so long.

chudlvr :

Hiii ahem have you been tested for hyper mobility?

𝙼𝙾𝚇🍓 :

Diet has an impact too

Bri :

Sally hansen’s hard as nails

Myah Lynn :

Clear nail polish and hair and nail vitamins

grace 🦄 :

i use opi nail strengthener, aquaphor to hydrate cuticles, and nail polish ALL THE TIME

clown gf :

hi im a nail tech!! some nails are just like this tbh. thyroid issues/ autoimmune stuff can cause it but honestly, sometimes ppl just got weak nails.

Refried beans :

I have the same issue, no vitamins will fix it for me. Use a rubber gel base coat and gel polish, even if it's just clear. It *should* allow you to keep them long

Muffinsandpie :

why did I feel that in my teeth

AnimeAnnaMae :

keratin vitamins. will also help your hair be stronger.

R.S. Nasseir :

I took biotin for like a year and used sally Hansen 5-7 day nail grower. My nails are now long and healthy it took like 6-7 months

Kat(Skelly) :

I actually learned something I didn’t know hypermobility had effect with their nails… I’ve had hypermobility all my life because of ADHD

Kara :

Restart and get nail growth oil

Klary bear :

Taking collagen might help strengthen your nails. If not, get a strengthening nail polish. It’ll keep them from bending and breaking off.

Kate Foliage_and_fiction :

Olive and June strengthener (absorbs into nai), nailtiques formula 2 (clear polish). Cuticle oil of your choice. Be consistent. Mine were so weak when I finally stopped biting and this combo made them so strong

delilah :

what everyone else is saying but just popping in to say that if u start using a base coat on your nails try to avoid one with PVB! it’s like polyvinyl butylmate or something but it can cause nails to peel

𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑠𝑠𝑎🦇 :

Oiling wearing a top coat taking care of them after showering if u file then use a nicer one not cheap and don’t use clippers

jubia :

you can use nail hardener(dont overuse it, bc if they get too hard then they'll be brittle)- i would also reccomend taking a multivitamin or getting a blood test to make sure you aren't vitamin deficient, it can cause weak nails

🦇𝖇 :

cuticle oil. my nails used to be like yours and i oil them once a day before bed and once a week i try to do an oil soak where I apply tons of cuticle oil and put on cotton gloves to let it soak for 20 to 30 min. they're still a bit bendy but so much better than before. jojoba oil is recommended bc it's structurally closest to the oils we naturally produce. some brands also sell a nail serum you can paint on for strength.

twitwit 🆘️🇺🇲 :

I have very bendy nails too but Im also chronically anemic. I'd get yourself checked just in case, may not be your problem here, but worth checking ❤️❤️

Live Smile Repeat :

it's the that damn PHONE 😡

Sophia🩷 :

𝓐𝓶𝓫𝓮𝓻🤍 :

Girl don’t worry, I have been biting my nails for over 12+ years and mine are bendy too, on solution I have been doing it using just nail cuticle oil. Sometimes cutting them can make them grow stronger. Although sometimes if you use both them they can still bend but if you keep doing the process - nail oil, leave it, around 3 layers and then leave and if they get too long just cut or file them. Filing them makes them so much stronger, I did I with my thumb and it is stronger than before. Hope this helps you xx
