The first problem that everyone faces when they are trying to grow out there natural nails is that their nails are weak and brittle. Brittle nails come from many factors that need to be consider such as poor diet, excess use, hereditary or, nail disease. Using products that contain biotin, vitamin E, Collagen, Calcium, Vitamin C and Zinc. Particularly most expert suggest that those who want to see exceptional nail growth should use products that contain a lot of Vitamin B7 and B12 because biotin is known as the "beauty vitamin" which has been proven to improve the appearance of skin, hair and, nails. I recommend using the Nutra Nail Power Gel, Nail Hardening System 1 Kit because in minutes it helps the growth of brittle nails and smooths out the splits and cracks that give the nails it's ugly appearance. Here are some more advices and tips when trying to grow out your nails naturally even though they are brittle and ugly:
- Avoid products such as hand cream that contain alcohol. These will dry nails out.

Weak nails are the most common problem that a person faces when they are trying to grow out their nails naturally. If your nails look discolored or distorted you should see your doctor right away. If you just have plain weak and fragile nails here are some advices to help you promote growth and improve the health of your nails:
- Do not file from nails side to side, this can weaken the stress points of the nail's free edge. Be sure to go from corner to center in one direction.
- Use the nail strengthener as a base coat and as a top coat. Then continue to apply the nail strengthening product every day. Calcium gel is a great product for nails that really works.
- It may be possible that your calcium intake is low, as well. So you may want to take a supplement such as Knox for Nails, Gelatine Dietary Supplement.
- Harsh detergents and water can ruin and stress nail fibers. Wear ubber gloves while you clean or do dishes
- Try not to remove and reapply polish more than once or twice a week. Nail polish will dry out your nails.
- Choose a remover with built in moisturizers to help limit the damage
Growing your nails take a lot on your part and yes there is a lot out there that you can use when you are trying to achieve nail optimal nail health. There are many wonderful products that can help you to grow your nails to the length that you want or longer. The growth rate and health of your nails is reflected in your diet. Problem nails can also be caused by many different factors including frequent washing, exposure to harsh detergents, frequent manicures, and humid environments. Dietary supplements such as Knox for Nails, Gelatine Dietary Supplement, provide important nutrients that help promote healthy, stronger nails. Knox for Nails contains gelatine and biotin which help promote healthy nail growth by acting at the base of the nail - the nail matrix - where nail growth begins. Niacin and Vitamin B6 are two important nutrients that help support cell growth. Below is a list of tips to help your nails grow faster:
- A hand massage will boost your circulation and encourage nail growth.
- Pushing the cuticles back can stimulate new growth. Just be sure to push gently and never cut the cuticles. This can kill the root and cause the nail to fall off and die!
- If you want faster growing nails, be sure that your diet is rich in Vitamins A, B-Complex, C, D, E and iron, calcium, zinc, sulfur, and fatty acids. Adding a dietary supplement such as Knox for Nails, Gelatine Dietary Supplement, will provide important nutrients that help promote healthy, stronger nails. And it's great for the hair too!
- NEVER cut your cuticles. This can damage and maybe even kill the root of your nails.
- Use a cuticle remover to remove overgrown cuticles.
- Before pushing cuticles, apply a cuticle remover or hand cream and massage in the skin for a minute. Push gently.
- Apply moisturizer at least once a day and always after using soaps. This will help avoid ingrown nails.
Well that is all the basic on how to grow nails long naturally without the aid of acrylic and artificial nail strengtheners and be sure to check out new posts about other beauty ideas. Glam Gal out!

Sushi Story
This is something Random but, hey I would like to share it.
A few days ago my mother and I went out to lunch as this very fancy sushi restaurant called US Sushi that was not upscale but, the prices that it had you would think it was a very upscale restaurant. They have a very large selections of unique and classic sushi dishes. The prices turned me away from some because It was like eating at Mr.Chow's in New York so, I stuck with the ever wonder California roll which is one of my favorite sushi dish other than the spider roll.
Now what made me mad about this place for the money that I spent, I could have gotten more if I had went to another sushi place because I had 8 pieces of sushi on this large plate. Get this they wanted to charge me $10.25 for the California roll that I order and I was not even full. I told my mother after we have finished that I would never go back to this restaurant because it was basically a joke going here.
My mother agreed and said that she will stick with her favorite Japanese restaurant "Bonsai". Now let me tell you a little something about Bonsai, it is a great place to eat really . The food is to die for and the service when it first started out was very excellent. Now due to changes of the staff it's okay but, if you are going to call in an order to pick it up. Make sure that you call it in at least an hour before you go to pick it up because the lady that is behind the cashier really does not know what she is doing. Seriously she does not because my mother called in an order of California rolls and she took at least 50 minutes to get the order to us and that time wasted she could have gotten something else.
So whenever you are in Greensboro make sure you choose some of these Japanese restaurants wisely because it may come back to haunt you.
