Filed nails are a problem that can affect any of us. Often, we don’t realize how easy it is to damage the nail plate during daily care. Sometimes just a moment of inattention is enough, and our nail plate becomes weak and brittle. Wondering how to restore their former glory? Here are some proven methods.
Why do nails get filed?
Filing nails is most often the result of improper filing technique. Too intense filing, using inappropriate tools, or lack of proper care can lead to the weakening of the nail plate. An inadequate diet or improper hygiene can also affect the condition of our nails. Did you know that too frequent use of hybrid polishes without breaks for regeneration can also lead to filing nails? It’s important to remember that our nails need breathing space and proper care to look healthy and attractive.
How to regenerate filed nails?
The first step in regenerating filed nails is to stop further damaging the plate. This means we need to avoid aggressive filing and give our nails time to regenerate. It’s also worth investing in a good quality nail file that will be gentler on our nails. When looking for suitable products, it’s worth opting for glass files, which are gentler than traditional metal or paper ones.
The next step is a proper diet. What we eat has a huge impact on the condition of our nails. We should ensure that our diet is rich in vitamins and minerals, especially biotin, zinc, and iron. These nutrients support healthy nail growth and help in their regeneration. We can also consider supplementation if our diet does not provide enough of these ingredients.
Natural oils to the rescue
Natural oils are another way to regenerate filed nails. Castor oil or tea tree oil have regenerative and strengthening properties. Regularly rubbing these oils into the nail plate can bring surprisingly good results. We can also opt for argan oil, which is rich in vitamin E and perfectly moisturizes and nourishes the nails.
If we’re not convinced about using oils, we can try nail serum, which can be found in many drugstores. Let’s choose products that contain natural ingredients and are free from harmful chemicals.
Professional help
Sometimes, however, home methods may prove insufficient, and it’s worth consulting a professional. In beauty salons, various nail regeneration treatments are available, such as Japanese manicure or keratin treatments. Such treatments can significantly speed up the regeneration process and restore a healthy appearance to our nails.
At the Easy Nails salon, whose services we can use, specialists will advise us on the best solutions tailored to the individual needs of our nails. This way, we can be sure that our nails are in good hands.
