Hey! :) So I've been biting my nails since I was a baby and just recently stopped in March. But my nails are the flimsiest, weakest things in the WORLD! They're also really wide across, so I need long nails for them to look good. I see so many nice hands and nails here on Beautylish! Mine break off all the time if I try, and I use so many stengtheners and fast-grow things that barely help! So how do you guys get them to grow so long and gorgeous? Thanks so much, any help is appreciated. :]

You sound just like me half a year ago! I was the worst nail biter in the world.. :O I found that if I used a protective coat of nail polish then my nails would become healthier and stronger. They used to ALWAYS break and it hurt so much. I suggest Sally Hansen Hard As Nails or Sally Hansen Maximum Growth. Hard As Nails is like an all round protection and growth polish while Maximum Growth focuses on the growing. Hope this helped :-) 

I bought all the Nail Tek system online. I suggest getting it..can be pricey but it will work. I love the ridge filler bc now when i paint them you dont see the mess up the acrylics left behind. It will take awhile for it to grow back nice and healthy but stay strong! Cheaper and better

buy some cheap drugstore glue on nails and wear those for a week. when you take them off you will be amazed at how much your nails have grown.

I hate it when nails bend from being so weak. It makes me cringe just thinking about it. It looks like it would hurt lol. I would say to use nail hardener.

I would say the best thing to do it to just keep them polished. For me polishing my nails keeps them safe and they grow long.
