Learn moreHow To Make Your Nails Grow Longer And Stronger
Buh-bye, brittle nails. BY ROBERTA SCHROEDERUPDATED: 30 SEPTEMBER 2022 Maybe it’s Hailey Bieber’s constant stream of manicure inspo, or the wealth of nail art trends we’re itching to try, but it seems so many of us are attempting to grow our nails longer and stronger right now. While short and sharp always looks chic, there’s so much more room for experimentation when your nails are long and healthy. Dive into the ‘glazed doughnut’ trend, try a rainbow-coloured French mani, or simply keep it chic with a slick of clear polish – yes, it’s back with a bang. But success requires persistence, especially if you’re slowly weaning yourself off the acrylics or monthly gel mani. On a mission to achieve the long, resilient talons of our dreams, we’ve tried out all the hacks – and enlisted some of the best experts – to reveal exactly how to make our nails grow longer and stronger for good. Read on for everything you need to know.. How To Grow Longer And Stronger Nails 1. Use A Cuticle Oil Daily According to Ama Quashie, session manicurist and founder of Ama salon, the secret to growing your best nails is: hydration, hydration, hydration. 'To have strong nails, they need to be healthy – and to be healthy, they need to be hydrated,' she says. 'Cuticle oil works by hydrating the cuticle and nail bed, which is why it's such an important step in nail care, whether you're growing your nails or simply want them to look their best.' Her favourites? Skip the pricey branded bottles and opt instead for organic Dadi oil or a simple jojoba: they'll do the job just as well (if not better) and don't cost the earth.

Consider Biotin Studies show that brittle nails prone to peeling and breakage could be a sign of biotin deficiency, so it might be a good idea to supplement your diet with an extra dose of this essential B vitamin. 'Biotin-rich foods may help to strengthen brittle nails,' says Amanda Griggs, Nutritionist at the Khera-Griggs Cleanse Clinic, Urban Retreat. There are several small studies to support this, although Griggs highlights that 'they did not include a placebo group and also did not include the baseline biotin status of the participants.' However, they did show significant increases in nail thickness and hardness after taking 2.5mg biotin supplement each day. HUM Nutrition Killer Nails £22 at Cult Beauty CREDIT: .

Invest In A 'Soft' Nail File You might have heard that glass nail files are better for filing with, but while they're longer-wearing and easy to clean, it pays to invest in a 'soft' file, according to Session Manicurist, Ami Streets. 'To get the best finish from your filing, always opt for a soft file to prevent tearing or splitting your nails,' she says. Her top picks? 'Orly's nail file is probably one of best I've used because of the durability and the way it gives the smoothest finish really fast.' GETTY IMAGES 'Pro products are always best and usually more hard wearing. I really like the Natural Nail Company because you can choose a file depending on whether your nails are soft or hard, and there are even options for acrylics.' RELATED STORY Just A Super Useful Guide To Super Shiny Hair What's more, you really need to nail (sorry) your filing technique. Back and forth see-saw motions will only cause the nail to splinter, so always file in one direction, using long, swift but gentle strokes. Pro Tip: 'Start from the outside edge and move into the centre,' advises Streets. 'This technique will give you a smooth finish and more control over the shape you're trying to achieve.'

Nourish Your Nail Beds If a bumpy, ridged nail bed is completely ruining your mani, you might need to increase your vitamin B9 intake. Otherwise known as folic acid, this vitamin repairs and multiplies the cells that make up nails, which speeds up growth and promotes overall nail health. It has also been shown to boost strength and prevent peeling. LAUNCHMETRICS SPOTLIGHT 'Folic acid is responsible for healthy cell growth in skin tissue as well as hair and nails,' explains Griggs. 'A true deficiency in folic acid may cause discolouration and contribute to brittle and weak nails.'If you think you're lacking, foods like beans and whole grains are rich in folic acid – but you can buy folic acid supplements over the counter, too.

Upgrade Your Nail Polish Remover When your manicure shows signs of chipping, it's all too easy to pick up any old bottle of nail polish remover. But those containing high concentrations of acetone (the potent solvent that is responsible for dissolving nail polish quickly) is extremely harsh on fragile nails and can dry them out almost instantly – cue peeling, flaking and splitting. AMBRA VERNUCCIO Your best bet? Go acetone-free. These formulas might be gentler, but don't underestimate their ability to leave your nails perfectly clean – even after a jet-black mani. There are heaps of gentle yet effective formulas out there with the muscle to whip off remnants of polish in moments. Nails Inc.

Try A More Natural Nail Polish Quashie recommends giving 'free from' varnishes a go, which purposefully exclude any potentially toxic chemicals. 'In terms of natural credentials, the scale runs from "three-free" all the way up to "13-free", which means that brand does not have any of the most commonly used chemicals that have been identified as potentially harmful in their varnishes.' So, which brands to go for? 'Some great 'free-from' brands are Kure Bazaar, Nailberry and Butter London – some of the larger brands such as Nails Inc and Orly are bringing out similar formulas too.'

Eat A Nail-Friendly Diet Forget all the crash-diet propaganda that's been drip-fed into your brain for decades, because the best diet for all-round health – including your nails – is rich in variety. For growing nails longer and stronger, Griggs recommends 'a nutritious rainbow diet including colourful fruit and vegetables, leafy greens, oily fish, nuts, seeds, avocado, eggs, lean meat, a little whole grains and sweet potato.' To take things to the next level, add in foods that encourage the growth of beneficial bacteria, such as kefir, miso, live yogurt, and kimchi. 'Finally, don't forget to keep hydrated and minimise alcohol consumption and refined sugars,' she says. 8. Use A Keratin Treatment Found naturally in nails, it's responsible for making them flexible – but don't let that word put you off. It doesn't mean they'll be thin, fragile or bendy, but fortified and much less likely to chip. Pro Tip: It might sound obvious, but Quashie's top piece of advice is actually the easiest way to keep your nails looking as good as possible. 'Don't use your nails as tools – remember, be gentle!'

Learn moreTop 8 Vitamins and Nutrients for Healthy, Strong Nails
By Amy Goodson, MS, RD, CSSD, LD Nutrient deficiencies can affect your fingernail growth and strength. Some supplements and a nutritious diet may help support healthy nails. Your fingernails can say a lot about your health. Nail beds constantly give rise to nail tissue, and adequate vitamin, mineral and nutrient intakes help support the growth, formation and strength of new nail cells. A change in the appearance, texture or shape of your nails could indicate nutrient deficiencies. Here are the 8 most important vitamins and nutrients to keep your nails healthy. 1. Biotin Share on Pinterest Biotin is a B-complex vitamin, also known as vitamin B7, coenzyme R and vitamin H. It promotes healthy cell growth and aids in the metabolism of protein-building amino acids that are essential for nail growth. Biotin-rich foods and supplements may help strengthen your brittle fingernails. A few small studies support biotin supplement use to that effect (1Trusted Source, 2Trusted Source, 3Trusted Source). One study in 35 people with brittle fingernails found that 2.5 mg of biotin per day for six weeks to seven months improved symptoms in 63% of participants (2Trusted Source). Deficiency in this vitamin is rare, and while there is no Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for biotin, the Adequate Intake (AI) recommendation for adults has been set at 30 mcg per day (4Trusted Source). Biotin is most concentrated in organ meats such as liver, but can also be found in egg yolk, dairy products, yeast, salmon, avocado, sweet potato, nuts, seeds and even cauliflower. Summary Biotindeficiency is rare, but consuming biotin through foods or supplements may helpstrengthen brittle nails and improve their growth. 2. Other B Vitamins Other B vitamins are also important for nail health. Vitamin B12 plays a role in iron absorption, as well as the development of red blood cells. Both iron and B12 are necessary for keeping nails strong and healthy. A deficiency in vitamin B12 can result in entirely blue nails, bluish-black pigments with wavy longitudinal dark streaks and brownish pigmentation (5Trusted Source, 6Trusted Source). Likewise, folate, or vitamin B9, is important for nail growth and health by contributing to red blood cell formation and the development of new cells. A deficiency in folate can cause a pigment change in your nails and make them rigid and brittle (7Trusted Source). To prevent deficiencies, adults require 2.4 mcg of vitamin B12 and 400 mcg of folate per day, though pregnant women have an increased need (4Trusted Source). Folate can be found in dark green vegetables, citrus fruits, beans, peas, lentils, nuts, seeds and avocado. On the other hand, B12 is primarily found in animal foods, such as meat, poultry, fish, eggs and dairy, though it can be fortified into other foods and beverages. Summary Bothvitamin B12 and folate play a role in red blood cell production and oxygentransportation to nail cells. Inadequacies can result in discoloration of yournails. 3. Iron Iron composes the center of red blood cells, which carry oxygen to your organs and every cell in your body — including your nails. Without iron, oxygen does not get adequately carried to your cells. As oxygen is needed for healthy nails, an iron deficiency or anemia can lead to vertical ridges in your nails or your nails may concave or “spoon” (7Trusted Source, 8Trusted Source). RDAs for iron vary considerably depending on age and gender. The recommendation for men is 8 mg per day, while that of women aged 19–50 is 18 mg per day. After women hit age 50 or go through menopause, their iron needs drop to 8 mg daily (9Trusted Source). Your body absorbs the iron found in animal foods, such as beef, chicken, fish and eggs, better than that in plant foods like dark green leafy vegetables, peanuts, seeds, beans and other fortified foods. However, eating a food rich in vitamin C together with a plant-based iron food source improves absorption. For example, eating oranges and strawberries alongside a spinach salad with beans and seeds improves your iron absorption. Summary Iron is needed to provide your cells with adequate oxygen, which, in turn, is necessaryfor healthy nails. If you have an iron deficiency, the shape and appearance ofyour nails can be affected. 4. Magnesium Magnesium is a mineral involved in over 300 reactions in your body, including protein synthesis, which is required for nail growth (10Trusted Source). Vertical ridges in your nails may be a sign of a magnesium deficiency. Despite worldwide availability of this mineral, the World Health Organization (WHO) reports that less than 60% of the US population consumes the recommended amount (11Trusted Source). The RDA is 400-420 mg and 310–320 mg per day for men and women respectively (9Trusted Source). Whole grains, specifically whole wheat, are a rich source of magnesium. Dark green leafy vegetables, as well as quinoa, almonds, cashews, peanuts, edamame and black beans, are good sources, too. Summary Adequatemagnesium intake is crucial to prevent vertical ridges in your nails. Thismineral also helps with protein synthesis and the formation of new nails. 5. Protein Nails are primarily made of a fibrous structural protein called keratin. This is what gives nails their strength and resilience. It also protects your nails from damage or stress (12, 13Trusted Source). Interestingly, the keratin you see is actually dead. Nails are formed by dead cells, which your body sheds as new cells push up from underneath (12). Eating enough protein through your diet is essential for boosting keratin production and thus creating strong nails, whereas low protein intake may cause weaker nails. The RDA for protein is 0.36 grams per pound (0.8 grams per kg) of body weight per day. This equals approximately 55 grams of protein per day for a 150-lb (68-kg) person (14Trusted Source). However, the Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) allows protein to account for 10–35% of your total daily calories — significantly more than the RDA (15Trusted Source). Protein can be found in animal foods like meat, poultry, fish, eggs and dairy, as well as plant foods, such as soy, legumes, beans, lentils, nuts, seeds and whole grains. Summary Adequateprotein intake is needed to produce keratin, which is responsible for keepingyour nails strong and resilient.

Learn more2023's Biggest Nail Trends Have Something For Everyone
By Jessica Harrington Every year, we get excited about new beauty trends. In 2022, nail art flourished, paving the way for this year to be even more epic. Given the nature of at-home manicures and the limitations of our own amateur nail skills (which, we will admit, did mildly improve during the past few years), we're ready to enlist the expertise of professionals to help us try all the newest nail trends of 2023. That's why we asked the industry's top manicurists to share all the fun nail-art trends you'll be seeing everywhere this year, and their answers have us eager to change up our manicures ASAP. To preview, you can expect people to wear bright and bold colors among the top nail-color trends of the year, in addition to muted looks like "rich girl" nails; experiment with fun finishes with chrome nails; and load up on intricate textures. The best part is there's something for everyone: dark, goth-inspired nails à la Wednesday Addams; aura designs to suit your every mood; and so much more. Whether you're looking for inspiration for popular nails to take with you to your next salon appointment or searching for fun designs you can do on your own at home, we've got you covered. Keep reading to see new nail styles worth trying in 2023. Nail Trends 2023: Rich-Girl Nails Rich-girl nails are proving to be a popular nail style for 2023 after stars like Jennifer Lopez, Marsai Martin, and Hailee Steinfeld wore the look. The manicure is minimal, clean, and very chic. "'Rich girl' nails are a modern take on a sophisticated classic," celebrity manicurist Tom Bachik previously told POPSUGAR. "[The] color is a creamy, full-coverage nude playing homage to the greige inspiration originally seen with Chanel." Nail Trends 2023: Rich-Girl Nails Because the rich-girl nail trend is all about the color, you can wear it on any shape. Nail Trends 2023: Rich-Girl Nails Rich-girl nails are perfect for year-round wear thanks to the minimal style. Nail Trends 2023: Aura Nails You've probably seen aura nails on your social media feed at least once in 2022, but it's predicted to be huge in the next year. "The style features a circular ombre effect that emulates a glowing aura," Pattie Yankee, consulting manicurist for Dashing Diva, tells POPSUGAR. Not only is it stunning, but it's easy enough to re-create at home on your own. Nail Trends 2023: Aura Nails To be clear: aura nails don't have to feature your actual accurate aura reading, but rather utilize colors that mimic the colors of the body's chakras and energy fields. (Think swirls of colors that diffuse outward, starting in the middle.) Nail Trends 2023: Aura Nails Rita Pinto, founder of Vanity Projects nail salon, previously told POPSUGAR: "It's very New Age meets Gen Z because the colors of the manicures are way more interpretive and expansive than the usual aura-chart colors. I've also heard them be referred to as 'color trips' in the salon by clients." Nail Trends 2023: Ballerina-Slipper Nail Shape For the last few years, popular nail shapes have always included oval or round. In 2023, however, it's getting a little more fun. The proof? "Ballerina slipper" nails are trending. "To break it down, it's a monochromatic french tip in an almost-coffin-shape nail that resembles ballet pointe shoes," manicurist and Orly educator An Cao previously told POPSUGAR. "It's really girly and pretty." Nail Trends 2023: Ballerina-Slipper Nail Shape To get the look, Cao recommends you be specific at the salon. "Ask for a coffin-shaped nail with round edges and a pink french tip with a sheer pink base." Nail Trends 2023: Ballerina-Slipper Nail Shape While you can certainly wear the trend on your natural nails, if you don't naturally have the length to make this shape work, you may need to ask your manicurist to apply gel extensions first. Nail Trends 2023: Chrome Finishes Perhaps the biggest trend in 2022 was chrome nails, and that will be continuing into the next year. "It won't be a surprise to see chrome or metallic nails all over," says manicurist and LeChat nails educator Hemi Park. Expect to see chrome finishes across a range of different colors — silver, gold, blue, and pink, to name a few. Nail Trends 2023: Chrome Finishes Like any other nail design, chrome can be used on the entire nail or as part of a nail art look — like french manicures, stars, and more — and the latter take will be a new twist on the trend you'll see a lot of in 2023. Nail Trends 2023: Chrome Finishes When the trend first hit the mainstream, finding the chrome pigment you need to create the look was difficult and expensive. Now that it has become more popular, you can find the finish just about anywhere nail products are sold, including most salons. Nail Trends 2023: Layered Textures 3D nails are nothing new, but embrace even more drama with layered textures in the new year. "This is when multiple textures are encased in separate layers to create dimension," says celebrity manicurist Elle Gerstein. You can embrace this trend with different patterns, embellishments, or decals — or all of them all at once. Nail Trends 2023: Layered Textures This is one way to make a statement with your nails. Take this gold detailing with pearl and charm accents. Nail Trends 2023: Layered Textures For an easier take on the trend, Gerstein suggests playing with your finishes. "Mattes and shiny options in polish and gel make it easy to achieve the layered texture look for DIYs," she says. Nail Trends 2023: Jelly Nails Jelly nails have been a celebrity mainstay for the last few years, but it's also a trend you're going to want to take a bite out of in 2023. "Like lip gloss for your nails, we'll see these semi-sheer shades interpreted in multiple color ways, such as juicy reds, pinks and oranges, blues and smoky grays, as well as paired with a chrome finish — resembling sea glass on your nails," Yankee says. Nail Trends 2023: Jelly Nails The semi-sheer, shellac-esque finish also gives off Y2K vibes — like the jelly shoes that have also made a recent comeback this year. Nail Trends 2023: Jelly Nails If you want to try your hand at re-creating the trend at home, we're sharing our favorite jelly-nail-polish options here. Nail Trends 2023: Opalescent Polish Thanks to Hailey Bieber, glazed-doughnut nails reigned supreme in 2022, but for 2023, we're stepping up our game with opalescent nail polish. "Get dreamy nails with shimmer-stacked shades that shift with every twist and turn of light," Thea Green, founder of Nails.Inc, tells POPSUGAR. "Pearlescent polish is all about the shade-shifting magic, so your nails will always look different depending on the light and the angle." Nail Trends 2023: Opalescent Polish While many brands offer opalescent shades in polish form, you can also try press-ons with the finish from companies like Static Nails or OPI. Nail Trends 2023: Opalescent Polish While you can choose a polish with an opalescent finish, you can also DIY the look with a luminescent eyeshadow and a clear top coat. (Follow these steps here to try the hack yourself.) Nail Trends 2023: Airbrush Nails "Airbrushing has been a tool in the nail industry for decades and slowly disappeared, but will be making a comeback as ombré nails [become more] popular," says Park. "Airbrush nails will stay for a while as trend as we are witnessing ombré [looks] trending like ombré french manicures, which require perfect blending of colors." Nail Trends 2023: Airbrush Nails Like aura nails, the key to this trend is all about blending, blending, blending. "We'll be reaching for airbrush guns and starting to create flawlessly blended blushing accents on the nails," says Park. Nail Trends 2023: Airbrush Nails You can add designs to your nails using stencils and an airbrush machine, like this blue and black star manicure. Nail Trends 2023: Goth Nails Take a page out of Wednesday Addams's book and embrace dark, goth-inspired nails — another fun trend for 2023. "Goth is so in right now, I have to hold myself back from releasing only goth looks," Braelinn Frank, founder of Rave Nailz, tells POPSUGAR. Nail Trends 2023: Goth Nails When a swipe of black polish just won't do, add either an accent nail or some extra texture in an equally dark or moody color — think gray, red, or dark blue — to give your manicure some gothic flair. Nail Trends 2023: Goth Nails To get the look, Frank suggests the Cast A Spell Nailz ($23) or the Bad Witch Nailz ($23), which are part of the Rave Nailz signature collection.
