One of the biggest women struggles is growing long, healthy and strong nails. Unless you were geneticly gifted with them, of course, in that case all I have to say is- lucky you! The worst of it all is waiting for nails to grow a decent lenght and when they finally do they very often break. To stop that secanrio from happening and help you grow nails you always wanted to have I am going to share a few tips and tricks with you. And remember, there is no need to spend large sums of money every month on nail salons. You can do everything yourself in the comfort of your own home.

Jedna od najvećih ženskih muka je kako ''uzgojiti'' duge, zdrave i jake nokte. Osim ako vam ih genetika nije podarila, u tom slučaju- blago vama! Najgori dio cijelog procesa je čekanje da nokti narastu, a kada napokon dođu do neke pristojne dužine vrlo često puknu. Kako bi sprječili taj scenarij i uspjeli u namjeri da vaši nokti narastu do željene dužineprobajte primjeniti neke od savjeta koje ćete pronaći u ovom postu. I zapamtite, nema potrebe svaki mjesec trošiti novac na kozmetičke salone. Sve možete napraviti sami u udobnosti vlastitoga doma.

Never cut nails with scissors

This will only make your nails weaker and is so bad for them. The best option for cutting/shaping nails are glass nail files. 'Normal' ones will do the job as well but since I discovered glass files they are the only thing I've been using for my nails. The thing with glass nail files is that once you buy them you can use them for years and years to come. Definitely my biggest nail care discovery so far! The one I use are Mont Blanc glass nail files and can honestly recommend them. Review is coming soon.

Avoid soaking nails in water

Now I am gonna admit this is the hardes of all tips for me to follow since I am cleaning dishes/apartment on daily basis and it's pretty much impossible to keep hands away from water in that case. The only thing you can do if you are in same situation as me is using rubber glowes while cleaning. The reason why soaking nails in water is bad for them is simply because it makes them very weak, in fact, nails are the weakest when soaked in water for to long.

Always wear nail polish

Even if it is just a transparent one it's going to help nails a hole lot. Countless times when I haven't had nail polish on my nails would break and it was no fun. Nail polish will create a nice hard layer that will protect nails in many different ways and it also makes them look nice which is always a good thing.

Eat lots of fruit and veggies

Taking in all the right vitamins and nutrients is as important to grow strong and healthy nails as everything mentioned previously. The reason why your nails might be weak might be in lacking some of those in your body. You can also try suppliments such as fish oil (there are fish oil capsules avalible nowdays) and vitamin B that will help out a lot!

Nikad ne režite nokte škarama

Ovo će ih samo učiniti slabima. Najbolja opcija za skraćivanje/oblikovanje noktiju su staklene turpije. I ''obične'' će obaviti posao kako treba no otkako sam otkrila staklene samo njih i koristim. Ono što je kod njih super jest to da jednom kada ih kupite trajat će vam godinama. Definitivno najveće kozmetičko otkriće na području njege noktiju do sada! Ja koristim Mont Blanc staklene turpije i mogu ih toplo preporučiti. Recenzija stiže uskoro.

Izbjegavajte namakanje ruku u vodi

Moram priznati da je meni najteže primjenjivati ovaj savjet s obzirom da čisim posuđe/stan na svakodnevnoj bazi, a u tom je slučaju gotovo nemoguće držati ruke podalje od vode. Razlog tomu je jednostavan- dugo namakanje ruku/noktiju u vodi nokte čini mekima pa su tada i najosjetljiviji. Jedina stvar koju možete napraviti ako ste u sličnoj situacij je korištenje gumenih rukavica tijekom čišćenja.

Uvijek imajte nalakirane nokte

Makar i sa najobičnijim prozirnim lakom. To će jako puno pomoći noktima. Nebrojeno puno puta kada nisam imala nalakirane nokte pucali bi ili se počeli listati, a to i nije bilo baš zabavno. Lak će stvariti taj čvrsti sloj na noktima koji će ih štititi od svega i svačega, a osim toga nokti će vam izgledati i mnogo lijepše što je uvijek dobra stvar, zar ne?

Jedite puno voća i povrća

Unošenje dovoljne količine vitamina i minerala jednako je bitno kao i svi prethodni savjeti. Razlog slabosti noktiju možda upravo leži u nedostatku vitamina i minerala u organizmu. Osim voća i povrća možete probati i dodatke prehrani kao što su riblje ulje (u kapsulama) i vitamin B koji će naročito pomoći noktima.
