How To Grow Long Strong Nails Fast

If you’re wondering how to grow long strong nails fast then today’s post is for you! We’re sharing our quick sure fire way on how to grow long strong nails fast you won’t believe it!

Lately I can’t stop looking at my long nails! And I am that girl that never really had even moderately long hair or nails. My skin has always been pretty good to me and I’m definitely grateful for that. Yet I could never really make sense of why my hair or nails never grew past a certain length. It was something I noticed when I was a teen and then as I grew older just sort of accepted that about myself. For whatever reason, my hair and nails just could not grow or so I thought.

Believe it or not it took 32 years for me to finally understand how to nurture my body. If you know me you know that skin care is everything to me and I do take care of my skin. But hair? Nails? Those were things that were just on me. Until I started taking the time to nurture them. If you want to know more about my natural hair journey you can check out my blog post here. But this particular post is about what I do to grow and care for my nails.

Actually deciding to go natural and knowledgeably caring for my hair now has already shown such a difference and so far it’s been 5 almost 6 months! I say knowledgeably because for my curly hair, education is key! This is precisely what kickstarted my focus on now looking after my nails.

I’ve been wearing long acrylics on and off for as long as I can remember. But one other thing I remember is what I had accidentally stumbled upon to strengthen them. Coconut oil! This is no surprise I know, we all know by now that coconut oil has tremendous benefits for both hair and nails, but how many of us implement it daily. So we’ll show you how to have beautiful nails without polish like I do…now!

For the past 2 months, I have been giving my nails a daily coconut oil massage. Yes it can be a little greasy but, water is key! Whenever my hands are damp, I take a little coconut I have a little tub of it in my bathroom now—and I rub it into my cuticle bed and finger nails. Not only does it relieve dry skin around the cuticle bed, but it also prevents hang nails and most importantly strengthens your nailbed and grows them like nothing else. If you’re anything like me and struggle with growing your nails, trust me this absolutely works!

• What I like to do first is buff and smoothen out my nails. Next I will file them to make sure they grow out evenly.

• Next I would soak my fingers in warm water to soften and then I gently push back cuticles with the blunt pusher side. With the V side I gently remove excess cuticles with the prongs facing upward, taking care to avoid my actual skin. I’ve also tried other cuticle removing tools and find the V pronged ones to be the best!

• Then I rinse my hands, dry them off a little still leaving them damp and then rub coconut oil into my hands, and cuticle bed.

• Lastly a great addition to make sure they don’t break while you’re growing them out is Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Hardener.
