Question
ok so i have silk wraps for 2 months and im growing my nails for them to be all the same length because there was no other way for me to do that because my nails are weak and keep breaking.is there a way to keep my nail underneath the wrap strong in any way and when i take them off what nail strengthener should i use?

Answer
Hi Dina,

Sorry to say but anytime you put any artificial product on your nails it weakens them!
The old saying is true, if you have never had strong nails you never will.
any Vitamin that has Biotin will promote healthy nails and hair.to keep your nails in good
shape put nail oil under the nails a few times a week this will help keep your nails conditioned
and not get dry and brittle under the silk!The glue used for silk can be very drying!



Good Luck!
