5 Super Simple Remedies for Quick Nail Growth

#1 Nourish your nails with oil
Take your pick – olive, coconut or flaxseed – depending on the easy availability and need.
  • Olive and coconut oil, both, have antifungal properties.
  • So if broken, ugly and fungusy nails is your problem, olive or coconut oil is your answer.
  • These oils have anti-fungal properties that heal and strengthen nails.
  • If your nails are just weak, use flaxseed.
  • Gently massage the warmed oil into your cuticles and say hello to healthy and long nails tips, soon.
#2 Some fruit juice for your nails?
  • Weak and yellowing nails can be embarrassing.
  • A shot of juice will put some zing back in them.
  • The citric acid and Vitamin C in lemon and orange juice is a good combination for strengthening nails and banishing the yellow.
  • You can rub a slice of a lemon or orange on your nails every day for a few minutes, or you can soak your nails in a mixture of lemon juice and olive oil, or just plain orange juice, for 5 minutes.
  • Wash it off well and don’t forget to moisturise afterwards.
A word of caution: don’t use this remedy if you have hangnails or have a cut on your fingers. It will sting baaaaad!
#3 The humble tomato
  • Eating raw tomatoes is an excellent way to give weak nails the much needed Vitamin C.
  • Even better is a mixture of the juice of one tomato and one table spoon olive oil.
  • Soak your fingers in this for 10-15 minutes, daily.
  • Your nails will grow strong, long and shiny.

#4 Quick and cheap, with petroleum jelly
  • Most homes already have petroleum jelly.
  • It is probably the easiest and least expensive remedies to grow your nails.
  • Apply a layer of the jelly on clean and washed hands, and let it sit for a few minutes.
  • At least long enough for it to penetrate into your skin and nails.
  • Do this before your bath and wash it off using Olay Total Effects 7 in One Foaming Cleanser. You will soon say goodbye to weak and brittle nails, and dry cuticles.
#5 Salt of the land, umm, kitchen
  • One of our last and really easiest tips to grow nails faster is to turn to common salt.
  • In a bowl of water dissolve 3-4 pinches of salt and a tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Soak your fingertips in this mini spa for 10-15 minutes.
  • If your nails are also yellowish, add a few drops of freshly-squeezed lemon juice.
  • Remember the sting warning though.
What else?
#6 Eat healthy
  • While you work on the outside, a little help from within also goes a long way.
  • Nails need a dose of keratin. You can’t really pop into your corner store and pick up a bottle, can you? There are other ways you can get your fix.
  • Eggs, milk and curds, meat and chicken too should be on your list if you want to know how to grow nails faster.
