so I'm growing out my nails to make my spinning more appealing, but along the way, one of my nails broke and so one of them is much shorter then the others... is there any way to grow out your nails quickly?
Also, is there any way to prevent the small white splotches that develop on finger nails? -

I don't think growing out nails is something you can force. And for the white sploches I'm pretty sure thats a zinc deficiency. -

dont know if you consider this as a success story or any sort of, i usually grow out my nails. this is about 3 weeks since i totally cutted them off.
just a few tips:
DO NOT:
bite
soak them in water for too long (softens and weakens them, so more prone to breaking)
cut them (trim them instead)
scratch at things
DO:
shock your nails (like drumming them on a table. it promotes growth)
eat protein rich and zinc rich stuff (helps kinda)
its all really basic stuff but it works. this is my result of 3 weeks. if i grow it more, the effect will be like HAL kinda. -

Damn it sucks that there isn't a way for nails to grow faster.

I know.
But I think spinning and stuff makes it grow faster because of the blood circulation. -

My nails keep splitting and flaking, so I often cut them again and again just to prevent that, that's why they're short like most sportsmen have =( But when I don't cut them for a while, they grow but become very thin and sooner or later they break, so I cut them again and everything goes around. I like sports, but nails don't disturb me while I'm training. How can I strengthen them to become thicker and harder? What meals should I eat? Maybe you know any cosmetics for nail care? Please share your experience.
